Lyman G 09/18/2021 We enjoyed ETAJ thoroughly! One of the best stage to screen transfers wed seen in years. Definitely go see this feel good film in a movie theatre. Weve already purchased the soundtrack and added it to our feel good playlist. See more Blake- N @PBSAniDom Apr 13 Everybody's Talking About Jamie is a great musical movie that stands out for its energy, heart, and uplifting message about self-expression and acceptance. The film is full of catchy songs, vibrant performances, and a strong sense of identity that makes it both fun and meaningful. Max Harwood shines as Jamie, bringing charm and confidence to the role, while the supporting cast adds warmth and humor throughout. The musical numbers are colorful and memorable, helping to keep the film lively and engaging. What makes the movie work best is its positive message about being yourself, even when facing judgment or challenges. It balances emotional moments with lighthearted fun without losing its impact. Overall, it’s an entertaining and inspiring musical that leaves you feeling good. I’d rate it an 8/10. See more Shaun R @Shaun666 05/03/2025 Horrible in every way imaginable. See more Daniel O @RT03386531 09/20/2023 Another bad adaptation. The musical production is better, You can watch the proshot. See more meredith w @Dufflecoats 01/29/2023 The film version of the stage musical "Everybody's talking about Jaime" is a lightweight affair, as musicals often are. There is not much to its narrative, which sees flamboyant 16-year-old Jamie New (Max Harwood) mocked by those around him until he decides to go to his school prom in drag. Lightweight as it is, the story is still uplifting and the while the songs aren't particularly memorable, they have an engaging feel-good energy. Richard E Grant is a highlight as Jamie's aging drag queen mentor Hugo who once performed as Loco Chanel.

Grant, Shobna Gulati and Ralph Ineson. Of course it has some serious themes about tolerance and acceptance but it also has some amusing moments as well. It is fairly cheesy and features some cliches but all in all its a fun film I enjoyed, so I'd recommend it to others. See more Read all reviews
