Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

Its seldom a movie, so accurately depicts the Ravagings of an unstable mind, so clearly and graphicly. Its not uncommon for a person suffering feelings of neglect, and truly believing he's/she's worthless to have cruel and violent thoughts. The difference is very few people act on those thoughts.I read a comment on this film by someone else, Who kept going down a list of things he/she didn't like, Rather than pointing out the entire point this film was pursuing. After all, Natural born killers is the same thing, but filmed differently. There's one thing about this movie you can compare is that In both stories, the killer couple is consisted of 2 lovebirds who believe they are hated, unwanted, abused, and neglected by everyone, and everything... Except each other! The difference is the body count, and How in Natural born Killers, They glorify Serial Murder. This movie depicts how One character of the couple, Is afraid, and weak minded,In desperate need of acceptance. The other is unstable and completely detached. Together they form a couple that Truly and utterly has no Ability to feel for others misery, When their own happiness is At stake. At least this is my interpretation. Jimmy And Judy, They meet at an odd point in each-others lives, circumstances pull them closer together as the story evolves, They explode in a violent, but fluid motion set forth by their own Stupidity, and misery. Its as accurate a depiction of A Rebel without a clue, as any movie of recent years. Maybe Its not for everyone, and maybe its not filmed to be glorified, and "Normal" but its a wild ride and image of what Unstable minds, given the right nudge, can do. not a family movie, Not a movie for the weak stomached, But nevertheless, Its a movie That takes you to limits many films are unable... To the edge!

Jimmy & Judy left me disappointed because I did not find anything original in the movie. While watching the movie many other better flicks similar to this one, came into my mind like Natural Born Killers, Badlands, Kalifornia etc.And I kept on hoping that there may be some twist in the plot but nothing happened. Another problem with this one is that the characters never got the time to develop.The acting was ordinary. Both Jimmy and Judy looked normal teens acting weirdly !I don't know why? Nothing was said or shown. So all in all you may miss this one and better watch any of the above mentioned movies.

As a very open-minded and avid fan of film, I must say that this movie was distasteful and over the top for a variety of reasons. Basically, sociopathic teens turn to murder in the most predictable of steps while subjecting the viewer to grotesquely graphic images that only serve to disturb. It's a concept that has been done before, and done in a far more provocative way. The film has some different elements (i.e. the concept of the video diary and the extremely long, single-take scenes) and there are a few occasions where something genuinely interesting and unique is produced. But these moments are few and don't in the slightest make up for the one-dimensional, tired formula of "youth spinning out of control".Edward Furlong is inarguably flawless in his delivery of the role, but that's really the only slightly positive statement that can be said for the acting. The directing grows sloppy in the second half and loses all the intimacy and realism that made the film mildly interesting at first. The sound editing is irritatingly unrealistic and sometimes takes the movie to a place dangerously close to kitsch. And the writing is dull at best; every scene is PAINFULLY transparent in its intended character or plot development and basic, simple points in the setup of the story (why is Judy so horribly harassed at school?) go entirely ignored.Lacking any real style or purpose and with an irritating, smug arrogance, "Jimmy and Judy" is a self-indulgent parade of predictability and shocking images with no real counter-point. Frankly, not worth the time.

When I saw this title I thought, Woo hoo another crappy film to watch and then to comment on, but what I didn't know was the reality of this movie was so real that it made me think really hard of what this world is like for kids who are not blessed to have parents and friend's to care for them.After watching this movie I found my self in a daze, sorta like a trance (something I always find myself in when watching these kind of movies') and I knew that all the things that Jimmy and Judy went through were things that could and DO happen to teenagers ever day. And to put things into perspective and to tell a beautiful story of two VERY misunderstood kids and their problems with everyday life. I now know that life can be hell and that without someone to talk about it to you, you can really go crazy.People need to look outside of their own home and see what happened's when kids (mostly teenagers) can do with one gun a camera and a misunderstood life.
