Jersey Girl (US Version) DVD Region 1

Breaking from his signature slacker-underdog films like CLERKS, MALLRATS, and CHASING AMY, Kevin Smith delivers the feel-good family movie JERSEY GIRL. While Smith's pert one-liners and wryly ironic sense of humor are clearly present in the script, his casting choices (Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck) and glossy aesthetic identify the film as a mainstream Hollywood crowd-pleaser. Affleck stars as Ollie, a powerful entertainment executive with a perfect wife (Lopez) and a beautiful Manhattan apartment. But when his wife dies in childbirth and his career fizzles to a halt, he humbly gives up his fast-paced Manhattan lifestyle for the benefit of his daughter Gurtie (Raquel Castro), who is 7 years old for the majority of the film. He moves to New Jersey to live with his father (George Carlin), finds a new romantic interest (Liv Tyler), and learns some lessons about what's important in life. A subplot about Will Smith keeps a string of Hollywood insider jokes and quick cameos (Matt Damon) running throughout the film, while a school play modeled after "Sweeney Todd" lends itself to some funny theatrical moments. An emotive pop soundtrack features music by Aimee Mann in addition to a handful of well-timed entries that help move the plot along ("Swing Low, Sweet Chariot" plays as Ollie sheepishly drives his U-Haul across the river from Manhattan to Jersey), rounding out JERSEY GIRL as a likeable comedy. Parents beware, Smith may have curbed his edginess for this one, but foul language abounds.

"[Castro's] smile and positive spirit make her the film's most engaging performer." - Kenneth, Turan (Los Angeles Times Critic), Los Angeles Times, 03/26/2004

"Smith is looking more and more like a developing major talent..." - Mike, Clark (USA Today Critic), USA Today, 03/26/2004

"[A] heartfelt, personal quality in the writing makes the film difficult to dislike." - Michael, Tunison (Box Office Critic), Box Office, 05/01/2004

"[I]t's sweet and funny..." - Chris, Roberts (Writer/Director "Wing Commander"), Uncut, 07/01/2004

"[A] warm, funny movie..." - Roger, Ebert (Critic and screenwriter), Chicago Sun-Times, 09/03/2004
