The hopes and dreams of aspiring musicians competing in the junior version of the Eurovision Song Contest serve as the emotional core of this behind the scenes look at one of Europe's hottest television contests. The rules are just the same as the Eurovision Song Contest with one key difference - the songs performed by the junior entrants must be entirely original compositions, not cover tunes. As the competition heats up, eager musicians and groups descend upon Rotterdam to compete in the finals. But there can be only one winner, and in the lead-up to the finals, most of the contestants will see their dreams of stardom fade as the spotlight shifts to reveal the one performer who . ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

New Review For Movie Sounds Like Teen Spirit
Johnson serves the story well and strikes a welcome tone by taking his subjects just seriously enough. Very enjoyable - but no more than an extended 'Pop Idol' for cinema.Dave Calhoun-Time Out
Johnson's film is meant to be a heartwarming and funny look at young dreamers and the realities of their lives. But there's something distasteful in portraying these kids as lovable losers.
Cosmo Landesman-Sunday Times (UK)
This is another moderately interesting documentary following some obscure competition in which there will be grieving losers, exultant winners and little widespread acclaim.
Philip French-Observer [UK]
Johnson never hits on a story that's worth telling, and his arch interjections about the contest marking the end of war in Europe hit all the wrong notes. Where's Terry Wogan when you need him?
Nicholas Barber-Independent on Sunday
This is a warm and very funny film that completely wins us over as it progresses.
Rich Cline-Shadows on the Wall
A cast of cute kids and quirky teens make for an unorthodox but endearing documentary.
Dan Jolin-Empire Magazine
It is physically impossible to emerge from this film wearing anything other than a smile as big as an upside-down rainbow. Congratulations - and jubilations!
Ali Catterall-Film4
The documentary Sounds Like Teen Spirit has a thoroughly dismal premise but it is a remarkable and deeply affecting watch.
James Christopher-Times [UK]
An entertaining, if slight, documentary about the Junior Eurovision song contest, which has the same trappings of wholesome glitz and polite nationalism that distinguishes the grown-up version.
Andrew Pulver-Guardian [UK]
Director Jamie Jay Johnson has hit gold with his subjects, and it's heartening how much he focuses on the ones with actual talent.
Tim Robey-Daily Telegraph
An exquisitely poignant, hilarious and uplifting reminder of the power of music, and cinema, to enrich your life.
Matt Bochenski-Little White Lies
The world could do with some feelgood fun at the moment, and this is utterly infectious - a total joy.
Rosamund Witcher-Heat Magazine
The feeling of unity and pride pierces even the hardest heart, particularly as many of these kids have experienced devastating conflicts in their homeland.
Rob Daniel-Sky Movies
Gooey tunes and rampant primary colours can't scupper the slick yet guileless crowdpleasing of Jamie J Johnson's debut doc. We might giggle and gag on the garish Euro-pop, but Johnson gets us on-side with winning, grinning empathy.
Kevin Harley-Total Film
The children dominate the film, and their openness and enthusiasm overwhelm any latent cynicism.
Alastair McKay-Uncut Magazine [UK]
Filled with backstage tears and onstage triumph, the film neatly captures the sheer awkwardness of being a youngster. Go see.
David Edwards-Daily Mirror [UK]
This toe-tappingly energetic documentary is a real delight as it traces the talent and traumas of Euro kids as they strive for musical success. It is affectionate, amusing and thoroughly charming - the kids are genuinely thoughtful and engaging.
Mark Adams-Sunday Mirror [UK]
Director Jamie Jay Johnson tries to lend his project some gravitas by contrasting this friendly competition with Europe's warring past. But that smells like b******* because, essentially, this is like watching X Factor highlights.
-Sun Online
Sounds Like Teen Spirit has its share of emotional manipulation but this documentary on the Junior Eurovision leaves one saddened by so much hope, enthusiasm, ambition and energy expended on such a tacky concept.
Martin Hoyle-Financial Times
is the humanity of the youngsters and the hopes of their families that win your heart rather than Johnson's attempts to say anything meaningful about Eurovision's contribution to peace between nations in modern Europe. Good fun.
