Kevin Smith Fans, What Did You Think Of "Jersey Girl"? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I am aware that in terms of box office success that Jersey Girl was a bomb.

Is the movie really as bad as everyone makes it out to be or did people automatically dismiss it because it is not a "Jay and Silent Bob" or "dick and fart joke" movie?

If you saw Jersey Girl what did you think of it?

It was actually filmed in the Berlin Diner, 15 minutes from my house.....

Not one of Smith's most popular films, but it's a very sweet film, but not one of his best.

If anything I think it shows that Smith can make a fairly decent movie that doesn't rely on the outrageous material he normally puts in a film.

It was an ok movie and the actress that played like little Gertie is adorable.
