Kid 90

In the summer of 1990, I turned 16 years old. This documentary hit me hard with sad nostalgia. I was sad that certain things happened and sad that I can't go back to relive it. All of these young stars were having fun but also going through difficult life situations. One of the crushes of my youth was Jonathan Brandis when he was starring in SeaQuest. That part of the documentary hit me really hard. Most of us think that Hollywood stars are immune to pain because of the fame and money, but that's just not true. You get to see the human side in this documentary. There are no Hollywood masks outside of a film shoot. These were kids being kids before the age of social media and instant judgments from jealous haters. This footage is important. It was as if the universe wanted her to record these memories to share in a future documentary. I was very anxious while watching it because of the nostalgia of my youth, but it was worth every minute to get a glimpse into the lives and struggles of these young stars. If only the ones who left this world too soon were still with us today.

If you were a 90s kid or a 90s teen, this will definitely take you back down memory lane. However, I thought it left a lot of things vague and much to be desired. Still worth the watch.

I was very excited to see what kind of 90s goodness would be in these home videos. For the first half of the movie or so, I was ok with it. The longer it went on, the more it just became all about Soliel. And I don't just mean that she was the main subject; she is the intended audience. As she reads through more diaries and poems and looks back on moments that are only interesting for her, it becomes clear that this project was put together solely for her "growth." That might have been ok if it was the least bit entertaining, and it first it seems like it might be, but that stops as things get more repetitive. You can see in her current day interview footage how proud she is that she has learned so much by looking back at these tapes, but we don't get much out of the deal.

I thought it was good, I enjoyed listening to the other actors' perspectives and for Ms. Frye to save all that media was awesome.

I found the literature she wrote through the years to be poetic. You can clearly see the shift of how right and wrong becomes clearer with age and experience.

Great to travel back to the late 80's/90's for a while.

It was a dark documentary. I loved seeing the old videos and flashbacks of all of my favorite celebrities from the 90s but it left me feeling emotional the whole time. She has lost a lot of people in her life like i have, especially to drugs and suicide so I feel for her. Soleil did not hold back anything in this film and you got to see her and her celebrity friends raw, uncensored and up close and personal. A great trip down memory lane. RiP jonathon Brandis. His death still saddens me til this day. I wish she would have done an update at the end and bring things up from the darkness but its all good. I still enjoyed it. Even teared up a few times
