Review of Chasing Amy (1997) by Jim O — 20 Jan 2016

I knew it was going to a funny, sort of quirky romantic comedy when I played the commentary (on my DVD) before watching the movie. Kevin Smith appeared with a humorous short message about the DVD, joking around about the movie, and to put you in comic frame of mood before the movie. And so the movie goes on with a lighthearted plot with primarily.

Holden (Ben Affleck), his life-long buddy and comic book partner Banky (Jason Lee) and his new lesbian girlfriend and fellow artist Alyssa (Joey Lauren Adams) until love strikes and the real plot of the movie hits when in reality we are all Chasing Amy in our own lives. The original dentally inferior and pre-surgically transformed Ben Affleck acts in the vision of his true born self and Joey Lauren Adams puts on s bubbly character performance of life beyond the comic relief of the comic book world.
