| Customer Reviews: Average Rating: 4.0/5 | | Exactly what I hoped for!!: Rating: 5/5 |
| I received it in 3 days after I ordered it and it was in great condition. The S&H was more then the actual movie, but it is one of my favorites so it was definitely worth it. |
| | Too Funny: Rating: 5/5 |
Ok...so I knew going in that there would be a lot of raunchy jokes and suggestiveness...And I was not dissapointed!!
I enjoyed the Original Clerks...But there was someting about Clerks II that just seemed to stand out. I loved all the horrible jokes, the hilariously random dance sequence, and Silent Bob finally at a loss for words!!!
This film was awesome!! If you LOVE Jay and Silent Bob....You will love this one. |
| | doesn't compare to the original: Rating: 2/5 |
| had some funny parts, but the movie was kinda stupid and gimmicky. it's kinda like a Harold & Kumar type movie, it's decently funny, somewhat entertaining, but lacks substance. they should have quit after the original Clerks. that was a great movie. and if you've seen the original directors cut of the first one, you'd know that they couldn't have possibly made this sequel |
| | Lame : Rating: 1/5 |
| Best part of this movie was hearing Soul Asylum at the end and the movie being over. |
| | I'm disgusted and repulsed and... and I can't look away: Rating: 3/5 |
Clerks II finds Dante and Randal still working at Quick Stop, lo these many years later--until Randal burns it down by forgetting to turn off the coffee pot. Kevin Smith is a more polished film maker now, but of course it lacks the raw energy of his earlier stuff. Like the original Clerks. It seems like he peaked about 5 years earlier, with 2001's Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. This film tries to come to terms with more adult themes, growing up, getting married settling down. But ultimately, it rejects that premise and fosters the view that adolescence can be maintained permanently, and that is all I can say without totally giving away the ending.
Brian O'Halloran as Dante Hicks is a slightly better actor years later, but it is harder to care about his character. It is no longer cute for him to be a slacker, and if he is going to just give up, get married, and settle into a boring life, as he no doubt should, well, who cares?
Jeff Anderson returns as Randal Graves, as annoying as ever, but that was his peculiar charm. It was rumored that there was a falling out between him and autuer Kevin Smith, and in the "thanks you's" and aknowledgements, that seemed confirmed. He was back, and he "hit it out of the park" but again, who cares? He couldn't save this movie.
Nor could Jay, or Silent Bob, who for once, was literally speechless. There was a new character, a repressed nerd from a strict religious family, Elias, but though he offered a good characterization, his character was poorly written, and I didn't buy it. Pillow pants?
Randal Graves: You can't get a chick, ya mook. You're too weird and sad.
Elias: [gets angry] I turn down chicks left and right.
Randal Graves: Your chicks *are* your left and right.
The best acting of all, though once again, I didn't buy it, was Rosario Dawson acting like she was in love with Hicks. I really enjoyed her performance, but still could not suspend my disbelief. Why did Hicks, a clerk in a Quick Stop for 10 years, and then a fast food employee, attract a beautiful woman like Dawson? And, he had Jennifer Schwalbach Smith, not too shabby herself, wanting to marry him. She is Kevin Smith's wife in real life, so it would be within the realm of possibillity that she could love Dante. A step up, even. But Rosario Dawson? Why did she even agree to do this movie? Jay (Jason Mewes) and Silent Bob (Kevin Smith) seem like they are alter egos for Dante and Randal, don't you think? Duh.
Anyway, though I have trashed Clerks II, I enjoyed watching it, especially the scenes with Rosario Dawson, but mildly entertaining though it was, I still have to say that it wasn't a very good movie. It was a good effort. It gives closure to the View Askew story arc.
Jay: Nong, nong, ning-a ning-a nong nong!
