A guy falls in love with a lesbian.
Who should watch
Kevin Smith fans. Anyone who has been in a relationship.
Thoughts
Once you accept this film to be half comedy and half drama, you will enjoy Kevin Smith's best film.
The biggest strength of the film was, of course, the clever, edgy and funny dialogue. What was different about this film was that the characters actually behaved and moved the story, instead of saying funny lines for the sake of being funny. The realism about relationships and the solid acting made this a truthful, enlightening film. The best scene outside the hockey rink was just heartbreaking.
What I would change
Not market it as just a raunchy Kevin Smith movie.
