Formulaic script and uneven tone. Disappointing.

Jersey Girl obeys the classic conventions of romantic comedy but there are ingredients in this mix that raise it a notch above average.

This kind of weepy material works in the hands of melodrama masters like Douglas Sirk or Pedro Almodovar. But here, it's over-the-top and it's just horrible.

Mature and heartfelt, though not overly saccharine.

I enjoyed the movie quite a bit... Unfortunately, Smith cannot resist his old stand-bys.

Jersey Girl marks a low point for the tubby New Jersey auteur.
March 27, 2004
Inspired by Smith's own awe and amazement at being a father, the movie is modest and entertaining, with a minimum of sentimental goo, and it demands little of us except a good-natured willingness to go with it.

A cloying attempt at mainstream fodder...
March 26, 2004
Smith is looking more and more like a developing major talent, so it could be years until we get a handle on this movie's legacy.
March 27, 2004
The grating sense of commercial calculation in Jersey Girl consistently undercuts Smith's fine writing.
June 23, 2008
The script stoops to cheap gags that undercut Affleck's efforts to sustain a believable character.
March 26, 2004
The filmmaker drowns his trademark edgy stew of smutty humor, stiff acting and dime-store insight into human nature with a gravy of glutinous bathos, making for a singularly unpalatable dish.
