6/10

The film in it's entirely is not bad. Hence the 6/10 I gave it. Like others have commented, although there is a lot of archival footage of other 90s actors and the viewer gets a sense of what it was like to grow up in 90s Hollywood, make no mistake, this film is about Soleil Moon Frye. One major criticism I can give is that at times it seems like the film is just one big pity party, with Soleil repeatedly airing her grievances about how she is unhappy with the way her career (or lack thereof) turned out post Punk Brewster, and how various men wanted to have sex with her when she was a teenager. Almost MeToo-ish. I thought it was a bit classless on her part to reveal that Charlie Sheen was the one that took her virginity without exactly spelling it out for the audience. It's worth watching but the film is probably not what you are expecting it would have been.
