Eighth Grade: Been there. Done that.

Kayla (Elsie Fisher) is in eighth grade.

Duh!

And, yeah, she has a Youtube show called "Kayla's Korner," for which viewers are conspicuously absent. No matter. Viewers aren't the point. In an extremely emotionally healthy move, Kayla is really talking to herself. Her subjects include "Being Yourself," and "Putting Yourself Out There."

She's not one of the cool kids in middle school, but you know, based on her show, that she's going to have a better time of it in high school and beyond.

It's a sweet movie about a time of life most of us remember. And not that fondly. The Movie Slut just isn't sure if, like Kayla, this movie has an audience.
