Maybe it's a generational thing with journalism, but I found it lacking any substance. If you want to do a story about parents making sacrifices for their kids in a sport, then give us some back story. When did they start cheering? When did the parents recognize their talent? What is it about All Star the kids enjoy? What was the reason for going cross country to that particular gym? Interview the kids on how they felt leaving behind a parent and their siblings, interview their siblings and their feelings, interview the parents on how this decision was made concerning the family, the positives, the negatives, etc. Hair, make up, scene of credentials being forgotten, swimming pool, driving out of the driveway...IMO, those scenes could have been shortened and they could have dug a little deeper into the sport and why these parents made the sacrifice.
Cp and I enjoyed watching it only because we enjoy All Star and know who these kids are (in terms of the sport), but in terms of being informative, I'd rank it right up there with reality TV, glossed over and superficial .
