Summary: Great movie, Pricey DVD
Review: I got this DVD from an online auction site for 15 bucks. Otherwise I wouldn't have purchased it.The DVD is okay, there's a couple of extras, but I would have liked more. If you're seriously considering paying 40 dollars for it just buy the VHS, or try to get the DVD somewhere else. Otherwise, though, the flick is great. A classic, one of my favorite movies, featuring Jeff Anderson in one of the greatest comedic supporting actor performances ever (aside from Jason Lee's plethora of great supporting actor performances.) Only complaints are the female leads - their voices are so annoying (not as annoying as Joey Lauren Adams', but at least she's a good actress.)

Summary: Olaf! Berserker!
Review: Clerks rules. Kevin Smith is a genius. I try to think of what the most expensive part of this movie was. My guess is that the hockey game is, due to licensing fees. Who knows? Either way, this movie shows what can be done with a great script and just under 30k dollars. To me, some of the greatest things in the movie are the little errors were people might trip on a word for a second. That's so real, that it give the movie a sense of reality that is missing in so many other movies. People have complained that Randall sounds like he's reading from cue cards. So what! Haven't you ever met anyone like that? I have. Jay and Silent Bob are the kings of loitering. What class they possess. Dante and Randall are a shining example of what can happen to you after working too long in a convience and rental store, respectively. There is nothing far fetched about the story of a guy having a bad day at work. I had many days almost that bad when I did retail. The dialogue is brilliant. Nice little insights about life and your place in it. After hearing a little of the story you forget that the movie is in black and white, and you don't care because it's so good. If you are a Kevin Smith/Silent Bob fan and have not seen Clerks yet... Get it! If you've watched Mallrats or Dogma without seeing this you're missing out. Great soundtrack, very cool Soul Asylum video, neat extras. This is one of the best comedy movies out there.

Summary: Clerks! Where's the story?
Review: Lame attempt by the inept kevin Smith to score big in the independant film genre, is the movie Clerks. With no real story except for a oddball assortment of caracters and their encounter with even stranger folks as customers. Granted their is a few (very few) good laughs in this attempt of a independant comedy, but not enough to keep the viewer intrested. Pity me I did let a person talk me into watching the sequel Mall Rats, but once again the story failed, due to the fact that the only real thing that the two films have in common is the return of some of the original cast members. Don't waste your time go buy a Tarintino film, like Pulp Fiction, or Resivoir Dogs.

Summary: Smith's first and funniest
Review: The first of the New Jersy trilogy (which later expanded), and definitive Kevin Smith work. Made for only a fraction of any major Hollywood movie, it easily surpasses other comedies due to originality and script. Kevin Smith gets the most out of his script and actors (some of who had no previous experience - i.e. Jeff Anderson aka Randal) in an original concept. A movie simply about two slackers and the weirdness that can only be real life. No major plots, just a voyeuristic viewing of their funny lives. The DVD contains many great extra scenes and add-ons, but skip the commentary track...there's not much going on.

Summary: A great film plus the DVD tops it off
Review: I have to say that this is one of the funniest and smart movies I have ever seen. Though alittle crude for some ears, it has you caring and liking some of the main characters. The actors and characters really bring this movie to life, you won't be looking at the clerks who serve you the same. Remember just because they serve you doesn't mean they like you.

Summary: I've been to that convenience store
Review: This movie shows that you don't need Steven Spielberg or Quentin Tarantino to make a great movie. Kevin Smith writes about what he knows, North Jersey and the characters that live there. Because he keeps the dialogue so authentic is why it succeeds. B&W is perfect for this film because in comparison to the glamorous life of the Hollywood movies that is what life is like in his world. If you liked the banter of Mallrats and Chasing Amy but want to see the real Kevin Smith, BUY THIS MOVIE.

Summary: Salsa Shark!
Review: With Clerks, Kevin Smith introduced himself to the world, with a wonderful concept, script, and a lot of friends as actors. I must mention Jeff Anderson for his completely natural performance as Randal, and of course, Mewes. The DVD has a music video by soul asylum, which if you want to be a cpmpletist, you should see, as it contains a little extra footage before the hockey game, and was filmed with the cast, much like the "Build Me Up Buttercup" song on the Mallrats DVD. The DVD also contains the Alternate Ending. However, The original ending is much better. The DVD also contains many deleted scenes, some excellent, including another Navy Seals joke. Apart from a bit of distortion, this is as close to a perfect edition of Clerks as is possible. Wonderful.

Summary: SJ's Review of Clerks
Review: For anyone interested in side-splitting comedy, Clerks is the movie for you. However, there is one fatal editing error in the movie that no one thus far has noticed except me. When Dante's girlfriend Veronica brings him lasagna, she says, "I'll see you when you close then." The big mistake? At this point in the movie, Dante doesn't know that he will be forced to close! Just a little tidbit I thought everyone would like.

Summary: Great Movie
Review: This is one of those movies that you can watch whenever. It really captures the utter hopeless of being a clerk anywhere. It makes you laugh all the way threw and in the end you wonder whether they were making a movie about all of your early jobs.

Summary: THIS IS ONE OF THE FUNNIEST MOVIES EVER!!!
Review: I love this movie! It is very original and very funny. It is really witty too. Kevin Smith is a really great moviemaker and this is his best movie...his other FUNNY movies include Dogma and Mallrats.
