Review of Jersey Girl

Jersey Girl (2004)
6/10
could have been a really sweet feel-good romantic comedy
7 February 2005
This movie could have been a really sweet feel-good romantic comedy -- it has all the right ingredients -- a handsome, charming and likable male lead in Ben Affleck, a gorgeous female lead in Liv Tyler, and a totally cute child... the problem was the script-- not the story line -- the script -- the language was peppered with cursing, in particular using the Lord's name as a curse word-- this seems to be fairly common in Kevin Smith movies....interesting.... anyway-- it was totally unnecessary to convey the story and just plain offensive. The other issue I found was in a movie that is supposed to be a romantic comedy, starring a child no less... is it REALLY necessary to have an entire scene devoted to a discussion between the two leads of porn and masturbation? Honestly... do we REALLY need to hear it? How this got a PG13 I don't know... I would have been embarrassed to have taken a 13 year old to see this....Frankly, I would have been embarrassed to see this on a date...
