To me, this movie is perfection.

Please don't spend money on this.

Great Film overall

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

It was so interesting to see my favorite drag queen under this new light. At the end of the film you realize how they grew as Jerick, while Jinkx was taking over the world. The family interviews were very sincere and helped me understand more about how difficult the life of a person born to stand out can be sometimes. I rented this film for 24 hours and watched it six times, I couldn't stop myself. I love Jinkx, so I'm very grateful that Alex Berry wanted to film this documentary and let us fans and anyone who is interested get a glimpse of the life of this very talented, lovely and humble human being. It's always going to be MONSOON SEASON.

From a young queen in Portland Oregon, to a Seattle queen, to Americas next drag super star and beyond! It has been a pleasure to watch these events from a distance being part of the community in Portland. Jinx is an amazing artist all around. This film is a beautiful look at who he is at the heart of it all. The honest interviews with his family shine a light on the struggles faced by many and give hope for overcoming some of those struggles. There is a bright future ahead of this amazing artist and getting an intimate look and how he had gotten to this point is a gift that he had given us by opening and sharing his world for all to see.

Fascinating documentary. It's mesmerizing the process by which the drag persona comes to life from her artistic creator. It's like the construction of an entity who is very different and have a life on her own but it's still part of the artist who conceptualized her. I also found this documentary very personal and really touching, showing the family dynamics and the interpersonal relationships that evolved with (and influenced, perhaps?) the creation process of Jinkx Monsoon. In the world of entertainment, there are many fascinating ways to engage audiences with suspended disbelief; I think that drag queens and female impersonators take it to the next level, by bringing to life characters that are part of their creator, and part of multiple movie and multimedia influences, and also products of intensive research in social issues that affect GLBT community. Female impersonation is still taboo in many ways in our society, and this documentary helps to break such boundaries and inform the audience.

I was blessed to be in the audience at the premiere in Seattle with Jerick Hoffer, his family and his extended drag family. I watched it again yesterday for the second time. It's an amazing, honest, revealing documentary on how Jinkx Monsoon was born. Jerick was already a star before Rupaul's Drag Race but winning America's Next Drag Superstar brought him to a bigger audience. I loved the early film footage of his early drag performances. It's great to see the wonderful relationship and the loving support that he has with his family. Alex Berry and Basil Shadid have done a brilliant job and thank you for allowing us to see behind the curtain of this multi-talented drag performer's life. It's a must see documentary!! I feel like I know Jinkx Monsoon a lot more intimately than I did before!
