Kevin Smith's smartest, deepest, most well-written film by far.

I think this is one of Kevin Smith's best films. In sharp Kevin Smith writing fashion, it dissects relationships, sexuality, and love with wit and insight and reaches deeper thematic material than Smith's past, cruder films. Ben Affleck is fantastic here, putting in a subtle and nuanced comedic performance and the film exceeds expectation.

Probably Smith's deepest film, emotionally. I was surprised by this level of depth. I could see this situation playing out somewhat similar in real life. I liked the relationship almost as much as the sexual dialogue, which was funny and insightful. It's the "black sheep" of the View Askewniverse films, but in this case that's a good thing.

A change of pace to Kevin Smith's usual comedies, Chasing Amy shows a lot of heart. Ben Affleck actually has a good performance, despite not usually being able to show emotion. Joey Lauren Adams is also very sweet. Definitely one of Kevin Smith's best films. Fingercuffs anyone?!

In actuality this movie is one of my favorites, but its not my favorite because its the best movie ever made or even an amazing movie. It is, however, a fun movie. It makes you laugh, it makes you frustrated, and it honestly does well to portray a relationship. It does well to show how people interact with one another on a level that is unexpected, honest, and little bit scary. It makes you wonder what you would do if you were in the same situation. "Chasing Amy" makes for one of the best films a guy and a girl can actually watch and both like. I won't say everyone will like this movie, but it is funny, it is dirty, and it is just a bit romantic. All things that I can say that I like and even enjoy.

While more mature and much better than clerks, it doesn't have the spice to keep me interested. Maybe its just me but Ben Affleck bores me to death and I hope that he is never in another movie. I blame Smith for making his career what it is

The critics darling out of Kevin Smith's film, Chasing Amy delves into relationships. It retains the dirty mind of Clerks - but Smith has grown up considerably and it is surprisingly sweet and deep at times.
