It's just wonderful. It put me in the mind of Andrea Arnold's films.

At 80 minutes, the film is both leisurely paced and fully packed, so that when it ends we’ve spent the perfect amount of time with these beautiful girls.

Maltz excels in capturing the small, seemingly insignificant moments that make childhood so magical

Culture Mix

Jazzy is a beautifully filmed cinematic portrait of girlhood, friendships, and learning to deal with life's unexpected events. Some viewers might be bored by this drama's meandering qualities, but the kid conversations are very authentic.

Cool People Have Feelings, Too. (Substack)

Once again there is a shaggy, handmade feel to Maltz’s film, which is likely due to her unique filmmaking style, which includes a lose outline rather than any strict scripting.

At times I was really taken with it and at times it was hard not to realize it was doing the same thing over and over again, but this is just what childhood is.
