Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

The movie really just wants to entertain people.

I usually dismiss most Disney shows as being really cheesy. This is one of the few exceptions probably because all the characters are believable. The series managed to impart little lessons and morals without shoving them down your throat.It's got a good title too. "The Famous Jett Jackson". Nice ring to it. It's the story of Jett Jackson, a boy who stars in an TV action series called Silverstone. It sounds more like a tire company but anyway...Jett convinces the network to move filming to his hometown in North Carolina. That way he can be with his father and grandmother, and pal around with friends Kayla and JB. Jett had to deal with being famous, having his father as the sheriff and dealing with his parents' divorce. Other characters included Booker the town deputy and Cubby, a props master on the set of the show. Now you'd think one moron-type character would be enough but you'd be wrong. They pushed that a little too far. I didn't mind Cubby too much since he actually had some worth but Booker was just a bumbling fool. Also on the set, you had Riley Grant, who looked like she was thirty, and co-starred with Jett on Silverstone along with Nigel who played Artemus. The Silverstone segments fit well into what was happening off set too. I remember one episode where the director wanted them to start using guns to heighten the action but Jett didn't want to. That was a good episode.Sure the theme song sounded like a rip-off of Eric Clapton's "Change the World" but it was a pretty good show that didn't lose it's plot arc. Deals with issues and what not but is still fun.

This show was interesting at first, but the little bits of Silverstone started to be the only thing to keep it alive. Otherwise it's just the story of some kids' lives. Unlike other shows that sound the same, there are not many episodes where strange things happen, or unfamiliar surroundings that make it interesting. There are some lessons, better when they tie it into the Silverstone parts, but sometimes are targeted towards the African-American audience, which is a downer.Before I go on, let me explain the plot. Jett Jackson is a teenage star for his roles on "Silverstone", a popular show about a secret agent played by Jett(on the show), with a partner named Hawk(played by Riley, a newer friend, all on the show) and raised by Artemis, his mentor. The Silverstone show treats everyone the same race, so Disney had to try to make audiences catch what is different between a show teaching lessons for life and real life. Outside Silverstone, Jett lives with his Dad, the Sheriff, and Nana, his grandmother, a wise woman. His Mom is still in L.A. working for TV or the movies. Jett has been able to convince "the network" to move his show back to Wilsted, North Carolina, to live with his friends J.B.(white) and Kayla(one parent is black, one white). Plots either focus on trouble at school, trouble in the show, trouble with racism or possible everyday crisis(snake bite, lost while camping, such).The acting is great, though the emotion seems to all either be "Everything's great!" or "I'm concerned.", but it's just a little too repetitive and boring eventually. I suggest they try bringing Silverstone by itself onto air, give the actors who play locals in Wilsted parts, and spruce it up to a higher action level.

This is one of the only reasons i watch disney i have seen every episode since day one and i love it it is on at 11 at night here in england but the show is great but the acting could be better on some accounts but the excellent plots make up for this give the show a try and you will like it

The Famous Jett Jackson is about a teenage boy that is on a hit T.V. show called Silverstone. Jett likes the small town life better than the city life so he gets the show to move back to his hometown in Wilsted, North Carolina.This show has some really great episodes with good messages for kids. One of the episodes was about a teacher that got fired because he gave the students a book that the principal didn't see fit for the kids. The students protest against the acts.This is a great show for children and teens. But adults will probally also find it entertaining.
