Summary: Stupid and crude funny
Review: This movie was unbelievably stupid, crude, and hilarious. I have never laughed so much in my life. Jay and Silent Bob are the perfect comedy duo of our time! Of course there are a few people who find their comedy to be tasteless, but I say... get over it! If you don't want to watch this type of comedy you don't have to. Don't rent it and especially don't buy it. As for me and I'm sure most of America, I'm going to buy this movie and watch it after a hard day at work because sometimes you just need to let loose and watch something like this to let us get a break from reality.

Summary: How could you not like this movie?????
Review: As a devoted fan of the View Askew-niverse, I have to say that I LOVED this movie! We rented the DVD last night, and my husband and I both laughed [a lot]! The Jay and Silent Bob scenes have always been my fav in any Kevin Smith movie, and they finally got a movie all their own. It was great to see all the big name cameos (James Van der Beek and Jason Biggs were hilarious!), and the "Scooby" scene was my favourite! Now, let's be honest. You can't expect a full-length Jay and Silent Bob movie to be a biting political satire. If you've seen the other Smith flicks, you know what J&SB are all about. If you were willing to accept that, the movie, while not particularly insightful or intelligent, was roll-on-the-floor funny. I recommend this movie if you know and love Jay and Silent Bob. If you don't, watch something else.

Summary: I'm close to giving up on Kevin Smith
Review: In 1994, Kevin Smith broke onto the independent movie scene with his truly excellent low budget film CLERKS. The film succeeded primarily because it was comprised almost entirely of talk. Awesome talk. Moreover, it is one of those rare films that gets better on each reviewing. He followed this up with the fairly dreadful MALLRATS, which was marred partly by a lack of story, partly by expanding the roles of Jay and Silent Bob, and partly by injecting way too much humor having to do with one bodily function or another. CHASING AMY, on the other hand, was incredible, and it looked like Smith was completely back on track. But note, in CLERKS and CHASING AMY, Jay and Silent Bob had very, very small roles. DOGMA elevated both characters to new levels. I don't think it was an accident that DOGMA and MALLRATS were the weakest of his first four films. The basic problem is that neither Jason Mewes nor Smith are good actors, and both are utterly dreadful physical comedians. Since Smith inexplicably injects a fair amount of physical comedy into his films, this is not a good thing. I was extremely dubious about JAY AND SILENT BOB STRIKE BACK from the moment I first heard about it. Having come to the conclusion that "more Jay and Silent Bob" = "less of a flick," I was afraid that this was going to be one of his weaker efforts. Unfortunately, it was much worse than I had anticipated. I had hoped that they would perhaps move away from some of the sophomoric jokes that had marred MALLRATS and DOGMA, but I was mistaken. What is wrong with the film? First, Mewes and Smith remain dreadful comic actors, especially when called upon to do physical comedy. If anyone doubts this, just look at the way they run on their way to the animal lab before stealing the orangutan. Second, the script was just wretched, filled with an inconceivable number of jokes about homosexuality, sex, flatulence, and dope. A little of that kind of humor goes a very, very long way. We are given piles of it. Third, the cast, which is overall rather amazing, is just wasted. It is embarrassing to see first-rate talent wasting itself. Most of the performers simply can't transcend the weakness of the material they have to work with, but others, like the dreadful Will Ferrell and the unfortunate Mark Hamill, manage to make things worse than they ought to be. So, while I loved both CLERKS and CHASING AMY (and the animated version of CLERKS), this film pretty makes me want to give up on Kevin Smith. Will he make another good film? Possibly. Do I expect him to? No. If he does, he needs to jettison completely all the physical humor. And he needs to grow up a bit. One of the reasons that CHASING AMY was so successful (apart from the fact that it featured no physical comedy) was the fact that the issues dealt with in that film are real, adult issues. The jokes of MALLRATS, this film, and even DOGMA, or adolescent jokes. Smith is now in his thirties. He ought to focus on more age-appropriate issues. As a last observation, I have to say that I don't understand how Smith manages to get so many name actors and actresses in his films. Money, of course, but he has so many names that I suspect that most were working for below what they normally charge. He must be a great guy with a lot of charm. So, a severe disappointment. Maybe Smith will right his ship. From the Internet I have learned that he has a project in the works in which he does not appear as an actor. I think that is a good sign. Also, a new CLERKS animated film is in the works. I liked the previous animated version very, very much, so this could be a lot of fun. So, I am not optimistic, given DOGMA and this film, but I can only hope.

Summary: Pure indulgence
Review: This film is one long string of in-jokes. As Smith admits in the commentary, you have to watch the other four "View Askew" movies first to see more than the (admittedly very funny) adolescent humour. A send-off party to the series. And the DVD's packed with extras including many of the bits that had to be dropped to get the 'R' rating. This is a superb low-brow evening's entertainment.

Summary: Rude and Crude...Just the way we like it!
Review: I have to say--I have *never* laughed harder in my life! NOT a movie for the kiddies or people who get "easily offended" (get a sense of humor already, would ya?). The best thing about this movie is that it is funny without trying to hard---it isn't forced. The scenes between Matt Damon and Ben Affleck ("It's HUNTING TIME!) had me rolling. The special features are equally funny and well worth watching. A must have for crude, rude comedy lovers.

Summary: Striking Weakly (No more ape humor!)
Review: Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back was filled with comedy and dialogue befitting our silently bewildered heroes. Jay had many and many a line to add to this showing and most of these were pretty entertaining. Even Silent Bob broke loose at times and this added to the entertainment as well. Still, this movie involved more than the simple exploits of two "stoners" standing around and the way this was handled was utterly dismal. Sadly, I believe Kevin Smith finally managed to bore me. My main problem with the movie was its plot, a gruesomely tiresome construct that a third-grader could have written, and one guest that Smith used. To start, the plot of movie, a portion I really didn't expect that much from, failed to really manifest itself throughout most of the film. At first, it did seem like there was going to be something, like Jay and Bob were going to go and intimidate their ways into notoriety, but the movie then strayed from this topic. There were weakly strung together smatterings of a storyline from then on, and these were only provided to introduce a star-studded ensemble with nothing to really do. The second part, my major grievance, was the use of an ape to entertain me. Using any type of ape, monkey, pig, dog, etc., in a cute manner is something I really don't expect in a movie like this, and the movie lost the majority of its appeal when this theme was introduced. Personally, I don't find being entertained by a chimp very interesting at all, and I really don't see the target audience overly enjoying things my grandmother longs for. ...

Review: I am so sad that this is the end of Jay and Silent Bob !! It's the end of and era. The movie was great, but I wish they had kept the deleted sceens in the movie , they are hilarious. kevin I love you !! You are a genius. I can't wait to see more of your movies, (you are still makeing them, right?) even without the Jersy "triogy", I'm sure they'll be great!!
If you want tons of laughs you must buy this DVD !! Make sure to buy the others, Clerks, Mallrats, Chasing Amy and Dogma, to get the full outragousness of Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back.

Summary: Has it's moments.
Review: I was really looking forward to this movie. Jay and Silent Bob are always the hidden treasures in the Kevin Smith films. So, why not make a movie featuring them? Great potential but I think these characters work better as bit players rather than stars. The inside jokes were hysterical, as were the disgusting antics of Jay. The whole middle part of the movie and the monkey plot just dragged. Good for a quck trip down memory lane and a few laughs. Not a great movie - but who said it would be anyway?
