It's an interesting film, consistently entertaining, a mile wide and an inch deep.

Bill Goodykoontz, Arizona Republic

As with many such informal documentaries on social issues, the results are hit-or-miss, though Thorpe's conversational tone is ingratiating.

Ben Sachs, Chicago Reader
Fresh

Surprisingly entertaining, highly informative and honest.

John Anderson, Newsday

Lighthearted but slyly provocative ...

Peter Keough, Boston Globe

This is an intelligent (if too short) exploration of gender confusion, speech therapy and the perils of coming out.
