Netflix's 'Sierra Burgess is a Loser' is not "justice for Barb"

Netflix's upcoming rom-com, 'Sierra Burgess is a Loser' stars 'Stranger Things' Barb as its lead; but even a full movie later, we are yet to receive #justiceforBarb. Here's why.

Looks like Netflix has seriously mastered the classic good old romantic comedies. With its recent burst of such movies like 'The Kissing Booth' and the very widely acclaimed 'To All the Boys I've Loved Before' - Netflix has gradually established a firm grounding of allowing viewers to reminisce about the days of John Hughes holding a giant stereo outside the girl's window, and Heath Ledger falling in love with the girl after literally getting paid to take her out on a date.

With its current surge of such classic films, you'd expect Netflix to be a little bit more sensitive about teenage romcoms especially when a cast member of one such upcoming film was also in one of the most popular shows on the Network.
