Joe Neumaier New York Daily News There's no denying the film is unpolished, but it has an earthy soul. Rated: 2/5 May 1, 2009 Full Review Lou Lumenick New York Post Forget West 47th Street -- and the only Jazz in Lindsey Christian's dull indie soap opera is an aspiring funk singer by that name who lives in a diamond-shaped part of the District of Columbia. Rated: 1/4 May 1, 2009 Full Review Neil Genzlinger New York Times Some dreams will be realized, some dashed, but audiences, having been dragged through this story too many times, won(TM)t care which.

Audience Member Well it is nice to see Americans with dreams getting on. Working hard and being persistent and actually having talent means a pay check, to pay for all those drugs that you need to keep being persistent and working hard, comes across with a thump in this movie. So the perfect American lives hit the screen yet again, anyone with a gun and the scene would be complete. Nibbles: Snowballs. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Visiskai paprasta, kiek skurdoka, bet zmoniska istorija apie Dzazmina, jos sese, mama, muzika, teti ir pora siokiu tokiu gyvenimisku nutikimu. Is esmes atrode, kad filmavo ir vaidino visiskos patirties kine neturintys zmones, tiksliau paaugliai, kurie sumaste is lempos padaryti filma. Arba taip liepe ju mokytojas. Nepasant visiskos kokybes nebuvimo ir klaikiai prastos vaidybos, buvo nuosirdus bandymas. Tik geriau toki filma parodyt draugams, teciui, mamai ir gal mociutei, bet nerekomenduociau leist DVD ar pan. Na, tiesiog yra tam tikri kriterijai bei standartai, kuriems sis filmas per mazas. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Audience Member Really good flick, powerful message and well acted. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review Audience Member It's about time the nations capitol gets represented on the big screen. A must see, especially for coming of age females moving too fast.
