Jersey Girl

We watched the movie Jersey Girl tonight. I was pretty disappointed with it. However the second half was way better than the first. There were literally a few scenes where we laughed out loud to the point of not being able to hear what else was going on because we were laughing. That doesn't happen often. I guess part of the problem was that I thought it was going to be a romantic comedy about Ben Affleck and Liv Tyler. It was more like a drama/comedy with some romance in it. And I totally wasn't aware that Jennifer Lopez was in like the first third of the movie. I like listening to her music (for the sound of the music more than her voice) and her movies are o-k. But I found it extremely annoying that she just popped up unexpectedly and was actually a little annoying. Also, for some reason the movie shined a light for me on why people say Ben can't act. I didn't notice before now that he might have some issues in that area. I guess because the movie was very obviously Kevin Smith, I kind of didn't take it seriously. Oh well, I love Liv Tyler and the little girl in the movie was the cutest thing ever.

PS, the spell checker suggested "waffle's" for "Affleck". That gave me a chuckle.
