| Globe and MailJulia CooperTakes its cues from both Woody Allen's self-indulgent worlds and the literary panache of Zadie Smith, but remains original in its darkly funny perspective ... |
| Cinema ScopeEthan VestbyConsidering that it's based in such a particular milieu, it's disappointing that so much of Jean of the Joneses feels commonplace, from dialogue that consists mostly of sitcom-ready quips to staid mise en scène that stagnates Paige's game performance. |
| Black Girl NerdsJoelle MoniqueThe greatest treat of Jean of the Joneses is the immigrant heritage of the films plays right on the surface. |
| Austin ChronicleSean L. MalinHighly visually controlled, snappily edited, and beautifully acted, Jean of the Joneses is a clever New York comedy about the Caribbean diaspora. |
| User ReviewMic DI enjoyed the movie Jean of the Jones immensely ... great story line ... phenomenal actors who were believable in character and really brought the script to life.. well done! |
