It's an interesting story that is poorly executed. There were some good comic moments, but no more so than a bad TV sitcom. The relentless dick jokes became really tiresome. I only watched this movie because it received a lot of... Full review

Kevin Smith's Third film brings on more drama with smart laughs and whitty commentary, featuring strong preformances from Jason Lee, Dwight Ewell, and Joey Lauren Addams. The main concern is Ben Afflack's in ability to draw me into his character Holden... Full review

This may come as a stunner, but I enjoyed Chasing Amy more than Clerks. This is Kevin Smith's finest hour. Everything is perfect and everything gels together just the right way. Charming, intelligent and irreverent with some of the best Smith... Full review

The most dramatic of Kevin Smith's films and probably the best made as well. Solidly acted, with some comedic gems in the script, and containing very little of Jay and Silent Bob - all good points. Affleck is decent, but Joey... Full review

So with that said Dogma is definitely a great film, even if Kevin is going to burn on hell for all eternity for making it!
Although truth be told I would willingly take Kevin Smith's version of bad film making over any other director or filmmaker in a heartbeat

You can groan at every misstep in "Chasing Amy" and still walk out excited about the risks it takes.
That's why Kevin Smith's ragged and affecting "Chasing Amy" is such a relief.

I like that the movie is balanced very well, I think.
So, it was a nice way to break the ice, but the movie is very dear to my heart.
And I was like, "Fine, I'll put it in a better movie.
You feel bad almost.

Chasing Amy'' develops into a film of touching insights.....these characters aren't simple.....While the surface of his film sparkles with sharp, ironic dialogue, deeper issues are forming....Kevin Smith , who wrote and directed the movie--the third installment in his Jersey trilogy--makes these characters intense and funny.....In this film's many touching dialogue scenes, Alyssa and Holden spill out their secrets..... ...
