Review

Writer-director Kevin Smith took on the increasingly rocky terrain of 1990s love and desire in the low budget, ultra-contemporary romantic comedy Chasing Amy (1997), the final film in his "New Jersey trilogy." In a twist on the conventional boy-meets-girl love story, the unexpected relationship between heterosexual Holden and lesbian Alyssa (with Holden's best buddy Banky a jealous third wheel) becomes an extended, offbeat conversation on how love and sexuality transcend easy definitions and categories through their intrinsic unpredictability. Smith's casually profane, humorously savvy dialogue taps profound sentiments without becoming mired in emotional treacle, even when his characters edge toward long-windedness. Ben Affleck's performance as Holden was one of several in 1997 that earned him the label "rising star" -- even if Jason Lee's Banky had some of the best lines -- while Joey Lauren Adams garnered a Golden Globe nomination for her mercurial Alyssa. Beginning with its debut at the Sundance Film Festival, Chasing Amy drew critical and box office kudos, restoring Smith to indie film grace after the failure of Mallrats (1995). ~ Lucia Bozzola, All Movie Guide


Synopsis

After a pair of films about hipster slackers, the work of writer-director Kevin Smith matured and gained critical respect with this low budget, independent comedy-drama about love, sex and the fine line between the two. Ben Affleck stars as Holden McNeil, a New Jersey comic book writer who is roommates with his best friend and professional partner, artist Banky Edwards (Jason Lee). Their hit comic book series, "Bluntman and Chronic," is loosely patterned after a pair of acquaintances, Jay (Jason Mewes) and Silent Bob (played by Smith), two characters already familiar as supporting players in several Smith films. Into Holden's life comes Alyssa Jones (Joey Lauren Adams), a lesbian and fellow comic book creator who quickly becomes a close friend, although Holden is powerfully attracted to her. Eventually, Alyssa realizes that she is attracted to Holden as well and they begin a physical relationship, much to the consternation of Banky, whose ire over losing his best friend to a lesbian seems to border on romantic jealousy. After he learns something about Alyssa's sexual past, however, Holden's immature response to his new knowledge destroys both his romance with Alyssa and his friendship with Banky. Chasing Amy (1997) was the third film in what Smith referred to as his "New Jersey series," films set at least partly in the Garden State and featuring the Jay and Silent Bob characters. ~ Karl Williams, All Movie Guide

3.0étoiles sur 5 Love the movie - not-so-much this Blu-Ray, Avril 15 2009
Par Adrian L. Fernandes (Toronto, ON CANADA) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
I've always enjoyed this film. I owned the original Criterion release of it on DVD and couldn't wait to hear that it was being released on Blu-Ray. As will all Kevin Smith films, whether or not you enjoy one depends on your personal dispositions on sex, religion, and life in general. For the record, I've always felt this was Kevin's best film simply because it had a great story (for the most part).

As far as the Blu-Ray, Alliance fails to deliver the goods again. Apparently this is a 1080p release (which several people have confirmed), however, it was shot on 16mm film and it looks like it was just transfered as is. As a result, the image is very grainy, and disappointing to say the least. A&E went to elaborate lengths with their new release of "Pride and Prejudice" from 1995 which was also shot on 16mm and released something that is remarkable to say the very least. This, unfortunately, is not it.

Is it a step up from the SD DVD? IMHO, not really. The Alliance release is barebones (as with all of their film releases). Even the newly released "Trainspotting" looks nowhere as good as the Japanese Blu-Ray released over a year ago. It's nice to see these films getting released, however, it's probably better to wait until their done properly by the home studio. Kevin Smith has already said this film is being released in July in the U.S. and will include most, if not all, of the features from the Criterion SD disc and more! Even if the transfer looks the same, you'll be getting a lot more for your money. The recent Alliance release of "Se7en" is also done using a print that provides more information in the image than David Fincher ever wanted us to see. It's just sloppy, and inexcusable, work for films that truly matter.

Shame on Alliance for releasing barebones, and for the format, sub-par versions. It almost looks like a cash grab.
