Ok. It’s taken a while to build up the courage to watch this Kevin Smith movie. Smith is an awesome writer and usually hilarious film maker so why the delay… J Lo. Basically the whole problem was with the Ben Affleck / Jennifer Lopez thing. This is the movie that there relationship started on. This was bad for dear Kevin as the subsequent media blah overlooked the actual movie… anyway, so I watched it. It’s great. One bonus is that J Lo dies early on! What’s left is a thoughtful movie about life, kids and the rest. It’s well written with the usual Kevin Smith things going on in the background – it’s better than the average romcom thing and I liked it mucho.
There’s some awesome extras on the DVD – especially Roadside Attractions made for the Jay Leno show…
