Rating: Summary: AWESOME! Review: This movie is by far the funniest film ever produced... and on a measly budget, too! Not for virgin ears, though! Also check out: Mallrats, Chasing Amy, Dogma... all by the same director, Kevin Smith (aka: GOD) this is probably his best work, despite unexperienced actors, that just adds to the film's fun!
Rating: Summary: Amazing Review: Seeing this movie at the ripe old age of TEN I can say that (thankfully) most of the material went over my head. As a teenager, interested in independent films, I revisited it. I'm glad I did, it is a classic in my opinion. Not just of INDEPENDENT films, but of ALL films. It is an absolute delight to see the world through Dante and Randall (played by Brian O'Halloran and Jeff Anderson- look for them in Dogma)eyes. The skewed perspective of two skewed individuals is hillarious. The antics are beautifully acted and directed. It is one of the funniest films of all time, unmatched in it's combination of wit, stupidity and foulness with a pinch of moral. A great buy. "Thirty seven? "
Rating: Summary: A comic Relief Review: The greatest comedy movie of all time. Hands down, this shows the creative genius work of Kevin Smith's brilliant rookie performance. This Black & White movie sets the standards for all comedy movies to follow. A must see, if not seen already.
Rating: Summary: Excellent Movie Review: I have seen a lot of movies, but no movie is as funny as clerks. This movie had me laughing so hard I could not stop. Chasing Amy and Mallrats can not even come close to being as good as this movie. This movie is very original and very funny.
Rating: Summary: A Definate Purchase Review: Kevin Smith is one of the best indipendent directors of our time. He is best know for his four most recent films, Clerks, Mallrats, Chasing Amy, and Dogma. Any one of these are a must see. Clerks, however, is one of the best. have you ever had a job that you hate, yet you would rather work there then look for something else? There is not a movie out there that could describe your situation in a better way. Kevin smith actually worked at the "Quick Stop" while they filmed there. It explains why the shutters are always closed. anyhow, the movie is a non-stop laugh riot. I can't say anything bad about it.
Rating: Summary: Quite Excellent, Really Review: I really don't have that much to say about this incredibly hilarious movie. I just wanted to make sure that my vote of five stars was counted.Customer: Well, this is the last time I rent here! Randal: You'll be missed. Customer: Screw you! Randal: Hey! You're not allowed to rent here anymore! Jay (outside): Yeaahh!
Rating: Summary: the great one Review: In short the greates movie ever made.Smith is a greatest writer ever weather it comic books or movies. everything he touches turns to gold.
Rating: Summary: ~Happy Scrappy Hero Pup~ Review: This film reached cult classic status a long time ago and, with the release of Dogma, is on the brink of becoming a mainstream movie. The direction is basic, the plot is silly, the acting is halting but the film still manages to be one of my all time favourites, why? Because of the awesome scripting. The characters seem alive and the set ups are hilarious. It is a film so filled with quotable lines that it needs to be watched weekly, in order to remind yourself of the ones you've forgotten. Oh, the acting, direction and plot might be iffy but thats only because of the financial constraints of a $30,000 budget.
Rating: Summary: Funniest movie ever. end of discussion Review: I think the title just about says what I need to. If you enjoy real dark humor this is it. It's worth seeing several times as you can't possibly pick it all up at once (as you won't be able to hear much of it over your own laughter). Kevin Smith is the greatest, if you liked Mallrats, buy Clerks.
Rating: Summary: You'll like it...despite its imperfections Review: After having seen "Mallrats" and "Chasing Amy" first, I finally found and rented "Clerks", the first installment of Kevin Smith's New Jersey trilogy. I knew beforehand that it was black-and-white and that Kevin Smith sold his comic book collection to get the film made. Knowing that, I was already impressed. Though not as outright slapstick humor-like as "Mallrats", "Clerks" is amusing...in that sickening sort of way. It is twenty-something independent film at its best...complete with actors who are not in the least "quintessential Hollywood" (and never will be). It took me a second viewing of it to appreciate it as I do now. Don't let its drawbacks detract you from renting or buying this movie. You'll find yourself loving it without even knowing a valid reason why.
