Movie Reviews of Jersey Girl
Movie Review: Give it a chance
Summary: 5 Stars
Look, this is not typical Kevin Smith fare. I think that he is pretty funny, and I won't even get into Dogma, but this one is different. I think that the critics and people that do not like Kevin Smith (yes I think that they are one in the same) passed on this one just because it was a KS project.
The movie is about a guy who has his world turned upside down and tries to get back to his idea of normal, however, along the way he finds out what is really important. Granted there is crude language, etc. butits use is pretty realistic in my view. The story is good and the cast is excellent (especially George Carlin).
The music that was used cues up pefectly with the story. The music director was inspired when it came to selections.
This is an all around good one, although not one for the kids.
Give it a chance and you might be suprised. If not sorry for steering you wrond.
Movie Review: stories from the heart
Summary: 5 Stars
I waited a long time before watching this movie but I recently watched it on cable the other day and I was really moved by how well this movie was produced. Kevin Smith is one of the best independent directors to ever grace the industry. With such classic films as Mallrats, Chasing Amy, Clerks, Jay and Silent Bob Strikes Back, Dogma ... Jersey Girl marks a stunning new direction for this wonderful director.
With a talented cast, Liv Tyler, Ben Affleck, Jason Biggs and George Carlin, this film should be everyone's must have list. Jennifer Lopez, in a small role really manages to take the opening of the film and while Ben Affleck isn't that great of an actor, Kevin Smith manages to set him on the correct path and with the supporting cast you can't help but wonder if Kevin Smith will make more films like this ... movies who tell stories from the heart.
Movie Review: Not expected from Kevin Smith, but good in a different way
Summary: 5 Stars
I didn't even know what this movie was about when I got it. I only knew that it was by Kevin Smith, so I knew I had to see it. I'm really glad that I did. I've never been a huge fan of Ben Affleck but I thought he played his role pretty well. I think I cried about five different times while watching this movie. Even though there were quite a few emotional scenes, they were well enough mixed with funny scenes to balance things out. The movie never gets overly serious. Also, you'll see a few actors from other Kevin Smith movies, which was cool. If you're a fan of Kevin Smith, you should watch this movie for that reason alone. Although, I will say that some people may not like this because it is completely unlike any of his other movies, to my knowledge.Movie Review: Growing up is hard to do
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been a Kevin Smtih fan since I saw 'Chasing Amy' many years ago. Having heard this was a romantic comedy I swore it off from theater to dvd, flat out did not want to see it.
I wish I was wrong about good things more.
I guess as I get older my sense of values has changed and this movie seems to catch a little closer to home and replace the once funny fart and weed jokes usually there.
Not what I expected from Mr. Smtih but totally appriciated and diffently worth your time.
If you are a Kevin Smtih fan this is part of the collection you must own.
Phenominal movie in all the ways movies should be.
Movie Review: looks good
Summary: 5 Stars
heres the cast so far off of movies.comStarring Ben Affleck, Jason Lee, Jennifer Lopez, Liv Tyler, Jason Mewes, Joey Lauren Adams, George Carlin, Jason Biggs
the movie is :
Set in New York and New Jersey, circa 1996, the story is said to be loosely based on writer-director Kevin Smith's own experiences as a husband and father. Ollie Trinke (Ben Affleck), a slick music promoter, meets a book editor (Jennifer Lopez) at a company Christmas party and the two fall madly, passionately in love. But marriage and fatherhood bring about sudden changes in Ollie's previously simple life.
this movie is gonna have everything in it and i think its gonna be a great movie.
