Who thought Jim Parsons could pull this off? And against Claire Danes who's a brilliant actor.

There should have been more scenes involving Jake and way fewer of the parents talking. I also found it hard to believe that Jim Parsons (who we know is gay) is being a husband to a women. The camera moves made me dizzy at times also.

Being a parent is MAD HARD! A mini version of yourself is the universes response to your parent saying, wait til your child acts just like you. But when you birth a son, and that son wants to wear dresses and be the princess during pretend time, what do you do? This movie follows two parents that has this reality thrust in their face as they attempt to enroll their son in a good school. Whether you are in denial or in search of guidance, one thing is a bonafide fact, their son likes to dress as a girl. I get why the movie was given such a low score. It pushes people past their comfort zones. I certainly felt extremely uncomfortable with how the parents were handling (or not) the situation. The lack of discussing it, denial, making excuses, turning a blind eye, and worse, ignoring it. Whatever you feel or felt, it is a child. A four year old child You want to be accepting, but you also want your boy to be a boy and dress and "act like" a boy. But, in today's society of putting it all out there, how do you deal with such a heavy load? One parent pissed me off to no end. All I wanted to do was smash their face in. The other parent irked me for not stepping up. Certain times are not meant to be passive moments. So, what do you do? I rated the movie an 8 because it pushed you. It makes you think, as a parent, what would I do? The movie makes you look at children and have a bit more compassion. It wasn't a bad movie at all.

To me, this movie portrayed parents so worried about their child being a victim of gender "expansion", that they missed the point that he was exhibiting aggressive behavior and stubbornness issues. Also, I love and adore Jim Parsons, but it was painful watching him attempt to portray a straight man....just as it is painful to watch the straight Eric McCormack attempt to portray a gay man. It just doesn't work.

It's 2018, so it was only a matter or time before a movie like this was made. I think much like what this movie is about, it struggles to find what it wants to be. I don't think this movie is a fair representation of what a family goes through when their kid struggles with finding their identity. I don't disagree with making a movie like this and raising awareness, but this was poorly executed. Don't get lost in the higher profiles actors and be fooled that this good.

Greg and Alex Wheeler (Jim Parsons & Claire Danes) make an amazing performance about their son Jake (Leo James Davis) who is a young 5 year old who dresses up as a girl and likes most girly things. They show the real roles of how it can be hard trying to figure out how to approach the subject with their son. On Jake's 5th birthday his friend Sanjay (Rhys Bhatia) pushes another kids for calling Jake a fag. This movie in my honest opinion is a great, and thought provoking.

I'm not gonna lie people, I started to watch because of Jim Parsons. And the movie itself is a drama that has family in it so it's literally what I'd love to watch. At the start of the film, I didn't know why it was not cheerish at all. You get to understand why the movie has a low vibe but by the time you get it, it's unfortunately too too late. First of all they don't seem to be parents who can't think outside of the box. So you're like "Why she just can't get it?". This movie does not show parents who accept their child's differences and neither the other way. Without the last 1 minute of the movie, it's all in the middle.and I personally don't like it at all. This 6 only goes for Jim Parsons.

Watching this movie, I couldn't see anything other than weird Sheldon Cooper from Big Bang Theory and crazy Carrie Mathison from Homeland trying to manage their special child. Of course the child would be special. But the movie is all about the parents and not about what help Jake should receive to try to manage his challenges. Very disappointing.
