Member Rating:  
A pair of violent young lovers armed with a video camera and plenty of attitude take flight as directors Jon Schroder and Randall K. Rueben instill Natural Born Killers sentiment with a heaping helping of Blair Witch Project style. Judy (Rachael Bella) is a high school outcast who just can't seem to shake her bullies. Jimmy (Edward Furlong) is a recently de-institutionalized suburbanite with a serious video camera obsession. Though Judy is at first unimpressed by Jimmy's reckless rebel attitude, her option soon shifts when the unstable newcomer captures himself on camera delivering a little vigilante justice to her unrelenting tormentors. Tragedy soon strikes, however, when the increasingly unpredictable Jimmy accidentally kills a cop, and the frightened pair are send fleeing into a remote commune presided over with Manson-like fervor by the malevolent Uncle Rodney (William Sadler). ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Wasn't expecting this movie to be great but it was. I LOVED IT! I am not so big into indie films but this one blew me away. Very unique and gives you a different feeling than your typical movie. Jimmy and Judy will be a cult classic.

the movie was greatly made. The technique used was great and so original, which made the movie better. The plot was pretty good. A little bit different then normal which is good. The acting was good, but I just couldn't really say that its a big deal or something I'll really remember. It just another movie, to me at least.

I absolutely gave this movie a chance. Then I began to fast forward and see if it was actually going to improve, until finally I turned it off. I think the movie was suppose to come off as artsy and perhaps edgy. I think it comes off as a film trying to hard to be those things. It was a huge disappointment and waste of time.

I have no idea why people are saying this is a good movie. It was dark and depressing. The use of the main character using the camera was annoying. If you want a headache, watch this movie.

I really wanted to find out why it was hard to get for such a long time. My answer was that this one will really blow you away as to why I even put this wanna bee into my stash of good movies to view.. LONG STORY SHORT...A REAL WASTE OF TIME AND ENERGY EVEN STARTING TO WATCH IT. ONLY GOT A HALF A STAR FROM THIS ONE. AND thats really doing these so called actors a favor..It SUCKS BIG TIME.. THATS ALL FOR NOW..

The style of the movie was pretty cool, and it had decent acting. It was a very depressing movie, and that is why I am only giving it 3 stars. If you liked to be depressed after watching a movie then this might do it for you, otherwise steer clear!

This movie totally tried to be an indie cult film. To some they succeeded from what I've read in some places. The movie is shot from a camcorder kind of like Blair Witch. To me, it falls flat. Not because of how it was shot, but because of it's being predictable and lack of uniqueness in the story itself. Edward Furlong plays the rebellious Jimmy. He hates his parents and everyone around him. I don't believe that's ever been done before in movies or books before. Rachael Bella plays Judy who is this picked on girl at her school despite being hot. In no way would she be considered to be the type of girl that would be picked on in high school. They didn't even try the lame gimmick of making the hot girl look ugly by putting glasses on her. Then there is this build up about "Uncle Rodney" throughout the movie. They make him out to be like a Colonel Kurtz. When he's finally on the scene, I thought of him as being closer to Colonel Klink.
