Sierra Burgess Is a Loser

Despite being categorized as Comedy, Drama, and Romance, audience emotional responses to 'Sierra Burgess Is a Loser' are heavily skewed towards negative sentiments due to the protagonist's problematic actions. The most prominent emotions are **Disgust**, stemming from Sierra's catfishing, humiliation of a kind character, and sexual assault. This leads to significant **Anger** directed at her manipulative behavior and a strong sense of the film being **Disturbing**. Genuine **Joy**, **Happiness**, and **Love** are severely diminished, replaced by **Sadness** and **Empathy** for the victims of Sierra's deceit. A notable amount of **Confusion** arises from the dissonance between the movie's dark plot and its intended genre, making the 'comedy' and 'romance' elements feel uncomfortable rather than heartwarming.
