This is our first review from Scrach Magazine:
Once upon a time, in a suburban neighborhood somewhere in one of those forgotten middle states, there plotted a deranged teenage couple who, through the magic of gutter-dwelling self-esteem and lackluster parenting, met and fell dangerously in love. JIMMY AND JUDY, a hellish Romeo-and-Juliet "romance" by Jonathan Schroder and Randall Rubin, is a distinctly disturbing piece of true cinematic genius that reminds us how, when joined together through sex, drugs, and confusion, true adolescent love is a partnership not to be taken lightly. With video camera always in hand, Jimmy (Edward Furlong), a tumultuous soul with a mile-long psychiatric rap sheet, stares down Judy's (Rachael Bella) most intimate and self-loathing emotions, breaking her free of her teenage prison. In return, Judy falls in wholehearted love with Jimmy and remains a devoted partner throughout the hells and high waters of their misadventures. Together, the two take on drug abuse, sexual mischievousness, violence, and a whirlwind of shit brought on by one bad decision after another. JIMMY AND JUDY is the most beautifully messed-up homage to love and devotion I have witnessed since SECRETARY.
