It reminded me of the British style of romantic films. A slightly sentimental story presented with taste and good humour; that's all, don't look for the typical Smith.

From Kevin Smith, I expect (not necessarily) humor, but above all originality and charm. Jersey Girl is a departure from rebellious provocative comedies full of vulgar humor, anarchy, and incorrect characters with crazy dialogues. I don't mind that Jay and Silent Bob don't appear in the movie, and to be honest, I was getting tired of them. But what bothers me is Smith's departure from entertainment to cheap sentiment according to the most clichéd Hollywood recipes. A deceased mother, a lonely self-sacrificing father, a cute little girl - these motifs were already full of studio romances in the 1930s. It would not have been bad if Smith had used ironic exaggeration and distance to a greater extent, but he didn't succeed much despite a few funny moments, like the borrowing of the porn tape in the video store. Sometimes it's unbearably sweet and sometimes unbearably tearful. I didn't have a problem with Ben Affleck as a lightning rod for derogatory comments and jokes from movie fans, but Jennifer Lopez is just an awkward imitation of an actress and I consider that she left so soon to be one of the few bright moments. Overall impression: 40%. So far the weakest film for me by Kevin Smith.

The script doesn’t offer anything new or groundbreaking, but the skillfully built atmosphere and great dialogues save everything. There are also a few scenes that can bring even the most self-doubting person to their knees while watching this cheerful and witty comedy.
