Against the Jab is a beautifully shot film with a winding plot that will keep you excited for what happens next and ultimately satisfy you deeply by its ending.
This film contains a lot of laughs as well as serious scenes and situations that are present in the life of many different Bostonians today. It contains issues and controversies that are facing the city now which makes this film relevant to the times we're living in. The characters are very realistic; excellently written and executed. It also has a sort of moral compass at the end that does not swat the audiences' hands, but makes the viewer think more profoundly about the choices the characters have made throughout the film.

I recently saw this movie Against The Jab at the AMC theater in downtown Boston. I was amazed by the dual genre the film has that was so powerful. How can someone achieve that? a mix of comedy and drama in the same film that is so well done and successful. When the funny time comes with all the prank phone calls the movie is very funny. On the other side story about DJMike life the story gradually becomes very intense and dramatic. The scenery of Boston was fantastic. By just watching the movie you will see the beauty of the city the aerial shot is mind blowing. I would suggest a little more color correction in the audience reaction shots. Other than that the movie is great.
This is the best film I've seen so far this year. All the actors were wonderful great performances. The entire cast had a great chemistry. Everyone was so natural. the story unfold before your eye as if it is really going on. The movie story line is Awesome. I highly recommend this film Job well done.

This was a great movie. I was happy to see some actors I have grown up with like Leon. The movie played the line well between comedy and drama, which seemed to keep you on the edge of your seat. I like the way DJ Mike's wife portrayed a grieving wife and convinced me of what I so encounter at home when a mysterious phone call or number shows up on my phone.
I also enjoyed the great landscape and scenic shots of our Boston. The Director does a great job of showing you Boston and it's iconic buildings. I caught myself saying "I know where that is!" more often than not.
As a fellow prankster, I too wonder "how far is too far?" This movie shows you exactly what happens when it does go "too far." ;)

The humor in this movie was quite original and very funny. The chemistry between the actors was great. The story was good and the dramatic scenes were well constructed. This would be rated PG 13 for language. It was shot in Boston and one or two suburban communities. This added to the realism for me.
This type of radio program is common. I've heard the prank calls enough to know that the prank calls in the movie were much funnier than what real radio stations put out. Mr. Patrick Jerome has been making films for years. His films keep getting better and better. This film should be picked up by Hollywood.
