Reviews
“Into the Spotlight follows a teenage girl from a musical family that becomes an overnight sensation. However, the new spotlight comes at a cost, and she must decide what she wants from her future. This is a musical high school drama that gets to show the modern troubles high school brings. All while showing how quickly someone can become the next big thing. It highlights how social media views can decide who a star is. There are some catchy songs and the overall good feeling and message being told throughout the movie keeps us enjoying it. The lead Kate Larson also wrote the screenplay and is going to be a name to watch out for in the future."
