It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.

The movie's only flaw is also a virtue: It's jammed with characters, stories, warmth and laughs.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

Was going to write an in depth review but realised it was so garbage that it wasn't worth much of my time. Just please for the love of god and all that is holy don't watch this abomination.

I can't believe TLC is even giving this kid attention. He wants to be girl super quick, needs SRS before puberty hits. Gees let your hormones grow before hurting the body. No wonder the kid needs to do two operations on a little piece of skin down below. Who eats a crack pot on the bedroom. Best to wait until 23 instead of teenage years. The Mom is horrible and too tan skin. I feel like the kid is adopted. Also the kid lips is horrible, what happened.

We love this show....Jazz has always known who she is. She deserves to be a woman 100% Jazz, do not let the haters get to you. They are ignorant. I am in my 60's, but my wonderful parents always taught me the right things. I was always taught right from wrong. You are so lucky to have such a loving family...God Bless you and your great family, Stay away from the ocean as we are DJ

This reality show is about the lives of Jazz Jennings and her family. Since Jazz is transgender and an activist for the transgender "community", it is difficult to review this show without reviewing Jazz herself and the politics of gender identity. But I shall primarily try to discuss the show.Though "I Am Jazz" is about the Jennings family, Jazz is the star of the show. She is intelligent, beautiful, and possesses a keen sense of humor. She is also blessed to be surrounded by a closely-knit family that is very loving.I think she is also lucky that she self-identified as male at a very early age, making her journey of self-discovery easier than it is for many who assert their true gender identities after puberty.However, her life is anything but easy. First, she must cope with some people who go out of their ways to actively deride her and her life choices, as if they have a stake in the matter. There is a word for those seek to control or undermine the personal choices that individuals make--bullies.Secondly, transgenderism is a complex issue, so it is not easy to navigate. Jazz herself admitted she does not yet know her sexual orientation. So imagine how difficult it is for outsiders to understand the "rules" or processes that sexually dysmorphic individuals must discover for themselves.Jazz is a very understanding person, but she has displayed a tendency to stereotype senior citizens. That is my one criticism of this exceptional young woman. Actually, older Americans and the world dealt with some of these issues in the sixties and seventies. If you are not familiar with Dr. Renee Richards, her Wikipedia entry is very enlightening.As Jazz deals with the usual issue of adolescence (cliques, sexual feelings, physical attraction, high school, hormones), she is also dealing with the psychological and medical issues that surround gender identity. This makes the show extremely interesting. There is so much to be learned about genetic programming (genotype), body type (phenotype), gender identity, and sexual orientation, which are four different things.In the show, Jazz is very forthcoming, very frank, and very authentic. She provides a window into the often confusing subject of transgenderism. The show feels very organic, not overly produced. The family dynamics are familiar; they have issues and situations to deal with, like all families. We see a family member that needs more attention. Jazz's mother feels abandonment when a child leaves home for college.This is an unscripted show where no one knows the final act. It is both entertaining and educational to watch as Jazz discovers the best path through a minefield of personal and social obstacles.
