I saw the movie last night, and yeah, the movie is great as long as you can put up with J-Lo and her character in the first 10 minutes. But, I don't think I could've been happier when she did die in the movie.
Once we got past all of it, it became clear that Ben Affleck could still act. He pulled off a very good performance in the movie, especially with a supporting cast that includes George Carlin, Stephen Root, Liv Tyler (whom Affleck worked with in Armageddon), and Raquel Castro, in her first role as little Gertie Trinke. Despite the PG-13 rating, there is still some toilet humor hidden within, especially at the beginning (where it seems Kevin Smith partially drew on his own Catholic school experiences for that material).
While this may be a Kevin Smith movie, this definitely was not like the others, but it is very worth seeing.
