ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
REVIEWS:
  • The frat-boy humor inherent in the work of writer/director Kevin Smith gets a serious workout in this road trip comedy that inspires an equal number of guffaws and winces. Supposedly the last of his "New Jersey" films and the swan song for his alter-ego characters of Jay (Jason Mewes) and Silent Bob (Smith himself), this ostensible adventure is in reality a messy conglomeration of everything that composes the filmmaker's oeuvre. These include movie parodies, celebrity cameos, an ironic self-awareness apparent in the often expository dialogue, an obsession with pop culture in general and comic books in particular, plus a mind-boggling number of homosexuality-related jibes and gags involving farts, filtered through the sensibilities of a sexually retarded teenage drug abuser. The bottom line on the world created by Smith is that he seems perfectly aware of all of this, embracing it with the fiendish glee of a demented toddler given free reign over a fictional universe where it's okay to make derogatory jokes about guys having sex with other guys. Smith has publicly stated that his are the films that would result if an average, going-nowhere slacker were given the power and financial wherewithal to make a motion picture, and he's cannily right on the money. The only question left, as one of his characters puts it directly to the audience, "Why would anyone pay to see this?" The answer: If you're a skateboarding, comic book-collecting, baseball cap-wearing pot smoker, it's probably your cup of tea and you'll be delighted. If not, then it probably isn't and you've been warned. ~ Karl Williams, Rovi
  • While Clerks doesn't have much going for it cinematically -- it looks even cheaper than its $27,000 budget would lead you to expect and the directorial style can be described as "nail down the camera and let the actors play the scene" -- it's still an effective and very funny movie, largely thanks to the screenplay by first-time writer/director Kevin Smith. Chock full of instantly quotable dialogue performed by an unknown cast with an appropriate tone of Jersey slacker cynicism, Clerks is a hilarious rant against (and from) the lowest rungs of minimum-wage slavery. If convenience store clerk Dante (Brian O'Halloran) and his best friend, video store counter guy Randall (Jeff Anderson), don't do anything terribly interesting (the action high point of the film is a brief hockey game played on a roof), that's part of the point; these guys' lives are going nowhere, and they know it. But rather than do anything about it, they talk about whatever keeps them from dying of boredom, including which Star Wars movie was the best, the sexual escapades of their girlfriends, the virtues of hermaphrodite porn, and the endless parade of stupid customers they have to deal with. Anyone who has ever worked retail will enjoy a long, loud laugh of bitter recognition while watching Clerks, while anyone else should thank their lucky stars if they don't understand the sheer hell of spending eight hours behind the counter that this film captures with such accuracy. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi
  • Writer-director Kevin Smith took on the increasingly rocky terrain of 1990s love and desire in the low budget, ultra-contemporary romantic comedy Chasing Amy (1997), the final film in his "New Jersey trilogy." In a twist on the conventional boy-meets-girl love story, the unexpected relationship between heterosexual Holden and lesbian Alyssa (with Holden's best buddy Banky a jealous third wheel) becomes an extended, offbeat conversation on how love and sexuality transcend easy definitions and categories through their intrinsic unpredictability. Smith's casually profane, humorously savvy dialogue taps profound sentiments without becoming mired in emotional treacle, even when his characters edge toward long-windedness. Ben Affleck's performance as Holden was one of several in 1997 that earned him the label "rising star" -- even if Jason Lee's Banky had some of the best lines -- while Joey Lauren Adams garnered a Golden Globe nomination for her mercurial Alyssa. Beginning with its debut at the Sundance Film Festival, Chasing Amy drew critical and box office kudos, restoring Smith to indie film grace after the failure of Mallrats (1995). ~ Lucia Bozzola, Rovi
