Summary: Best Kevin Smith flic
Review: This is Kevin Smith's magnum opus, his best work to date, and one of the best movies made in the USA ever. The dialogues in this movie are superb. Even if you're not a Kevin Smith fan you'd do yourself a favor to check this title out. Yes, the language can get a little crude sometimes but it's supposed to be about real life, we don't speak like the people on tv do we?Jason Lee has never been better and his character (Banky Edwards) is the best character in any film in a long time. With the exception of Good Will Hunting, this is Ben Afleck's best role yet (before he "sold out"). And of course Hooper Lamont (or Hooper X) is hilarious. This is an extremely well-written, intelligent film. Worth owning. The dvd also has some great features like deleted scenes and bloopers which are just hilarious, as well as commentary by Kevin Smith (writer/director) and the cast. As a bonus, it includes a leaflet with illusrations and Smith explaining why he made this movie.

Review: This movie is so deep and amazing!! Kevin Smith did such a wonderful comedy/drama mixed together, he knows what he's doing!!It's about a comic book artist(Affleck) who falls for a gay woman(Adams), I'm not going to tell the rest it is deep!!! Ben does such a wonderful and amazing job in this movie, so many emotions and feelings in this movie! A MUST HAVE!! Trust me you'll love it! Especially a scene in the rain!

Summary: Best of the Jersey trilogy
Review: Which might seem profane to some fans. But I saw "Clerks," and thought it was funny. I loathed "Mallrats" and I adored "Dogma" for all the so-called controversy it caused. ("Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back" was moderately entertaining.) But unlike a lot of Jersey fans, I don't watch these movies for Jay or Silent Bob. I watch them b/c Kevin Smith has an incredible gift for dialogue. His films are usually short on visuals and long on conversation and nowhere is that more evident than "Chasing Amy." It's an interesting film and like "Dogma," it's very blunt and explicit. (I wouldn't suggest watching this with your parents unless you're really comfortable with them.) This film deals with sexuality and its emotional and psychological effects. It brought up a lot of issues that most people, much less movies, avoid like the plague: sexual inadequency, sexual confusion, and heteorosexuality/homosexuality, to name a few. There's many nuances in the film and I liked it that when Ben Afleck finally got the girl, the movie didn't end. It showed the aftermath, much of it messy. Most romantic comedies show the happily ever after ending when truly, the real challenge in love affairs is not winning the girl's/the guy's love, but keeping it and letting it grow and mature. Which isn't to say the movie isn't funny. It's hilarious...especially the Jaws referenced scene in the night club when Banky and Alyssa compare sexual battle scars. Priceless! So it's short on sight gags and dick-and-fart jokes, and Jay and Silent Bob are only in the flick for 5 minutes, where Bob explains who is Amy and why he's chasing her....but out of all Kevin Smith's films, I enjoyed this one the best. I eagerly await his new film "Jersey Girl."

Summary: The best script Smith has written to date!
Review: Though Clerks is my personal favorite of Kevin Smith's works, Chasing Amy is the most exceptional, creative, and inventive of any of his stories. Some of my friends believe that Chasing Amy doesn't have an "indie" feeling to it. They said it was too Hollywood. Only you can decide whether the movie is too Hollywood, but this movie is really great.

Summary: This Movie Has No Comedy Whatsoever!!
Review: I hated this movie! It had hardly any jay and Silent Bobappearances in it! I thought Jay and Silent Bob movies were supposed to be comedys, but this one was terrible. It was so boring. 113 minutes out of my life, and I'll never get them back again. Please, whoever finds my review helpful, don't watch this movie, and just skip on to Jay and Silent Bob Strike back.* Have a nice day. *If you skip Chasing Amy and Dogma, Jay And Silent Bob Strike Back won't make any sense to you.

Summary: Great movie
Review: Anyway, I saw Chasing Amy. I'm glad I didn't watch it with my parents, cause it was very sexual. My bro owns em all, so I watched it when he wasn't home. It was excellent. I may only be 9, but I know a good movie as opposed to a bad one. Chasing Amy was really good, the best of all the Kevin Smith movies. Jay and Silent Bob are only in one scene, where Jay acts like an idiot and Silent Bob shows of his hidden wisdom. I'm glad they were only in the movie for a few minutes, cause I hate Jay, he is mean to Silent Bob. The movie was funny, and sad, too. Joey Lauren Adams (Alyssa Jones) was excellent and Affleck (Holden McNiel) was really good. Jason Lee (Banky) was my fav character, and Jason Lee, as Brodie, was my fav character in Mallrats. See this movie it's great. If you found my review helpful, please vote for me. Thank you.

Summary: Almost got it perfect
Review: Now, just to start off I will say that I don't believe that the homosexual lifestyle is a natural, biological idea. I believe it is an abomination, just like any other sin. That may get a lot of hate mail sent to me, but it is important to know that I believe that and I still enjoyed this movie very much.
Chasing Amy is a fresh look at a romance story. It is a chick flick that isn't. There are some problems with the story, which is why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5. The final solution Holden came up with really bothered me. Not because of the idea, but just because of the stupidity of the idea. I don't know why anyone would come up with that idea. It really bothered me.
The acting in the movie is excellent. And the direction is wonderful, but it is Kevin Smith, so what else can you expect. The writing is very intellegent and witty.
I wouldn't say this movie is a comedy. Many people will see that Kevin Smith directed and think, "Hey, he makes funny movies." Don't go into this movie thinking that. It has funny parts, but in general it isn't Mallrats or Jay And Silent Bob Strike Back. It is still a very good movie.
About that DVD itself, the packaging is ok. Whatever, who really cares. The extras are great. There are a lot of extra scenes that are very good. Just like in all of Kevin Smith's DVD there are great added scenes and audio commentary.
So if you like Kevin Smith see this movie and buy this DVD. If you've never seen one of his movies, this is a good place to start. It is probably his best movie next to Dogma. Don't go see Dogma first, unless you have a good sense of humour.

Summary: It IS the best Kevin Smith movie
Review: I'll be brief. This is the best work that any of those involved have performed in their whole career. It is Joey Lauren Adams' standout performance, it is the best work Ben Affleck has done (that fabulously realistic accent he used in Pearl Harbor nonwithstanding), it is Jason Lee's funniest work, and it is Kevin Smith's best screenplay and direction. Couple that with some great brief work from Jay and Silent Bob, and you have a fantastic small film that deserves all accolades it received.
