Rating: Summary: Jay and Silent Bob real American heros Review: Jay and Silent Bob are heros for a new generation a couple of screw ups who are somehow able to tie things up for the better in the end their antics will elave you laughing for years after watching this movie. The soundtrack is also pretty cool my only problem with this movie is that Brody who ruled in Mallrats sucks as the comic book store owner but Ben Aflek is the man in Phantoms
Rating: Summary: Juvenile idiocy captured on celluloid Review: As someone who enjoyed Clerks, Mallrats, and Chasing Amy (all by Kevin Smith), I had high hopes for Jay and Silent Bob. Jay and Silent Bob, who played roles in each of these movies, were a highlight, which probably gave Smith the idea to feature them as stars of his next movie. Bad idea.Jay and Silent Bob were like the pickle with your pastrami sandwich. It's a really enjoyable part of the meal. But what happens when you make an entire meal out of nothing but pickles? There, in a cellophane wrapper, is what you have with J&SBSB. I laughed maybe three times during the entire movie, mostly at Will Ferrell (who plays a clueless Forest Service agent). Jay and Silent Bob were absolutely unfunny. The romantic line (Jay falling for a beautiful jewel thief) is utterly unbelievable, and the diaglogue completely unfunny. I enjoy good cussing as much as the next guy, but you will enjoy this movie only if random cussing and guys telling people other guys are gay, by themselves, are riotously funny. In short, this movie primarily appeals to 12 or 13 year old males with less than average intelligence (or the equivalent).
Rating: Summary: Jungle Love Review: I finally got to see this movie and I loved it. It had me laughing at loud, even watching it by myself. I loved all the cameos, Ben Affleck was funny, I liked the frosted hair effect,how lame! At least he can poke fun at himself. It seems as though this movie has a cult following. Apparently "Adrienne", who won UPN's reality based "America's Next Top Model" was constantly quoting from it. I also liked that 'The Time" was given recognition in the film. I'm a huge Prince fan so it was cool to see them. Anyways, this is a great comedy worth seeing again.
Rating: Summary: Kevin Smith Strikes one last time Review: "Strike Back" has to be the best of Kevin Smith's movies in the Jay and Silent Bob series. As with all his previous flicks, Strike Back is not for everyone. Start to finish, it is filled with profanity and sexual vulgarity. But it's funny. Jay and Silent Bob are, for once, the lead characters in the comedy. In the plot, they decide to travel from New Jersey to Hollywood to stop a movie about the comic "Bluntman and Chronic" (which was based on their own pot-smoking/selling lives) from being made. A silly yarn typical of Kevin Smith movies. What really makes this movie worth seeing is the number of cameo roles put to excellent use - recognisable actors (Shannon Elizabeth, Ben Affleck, Matt Damon etc.) appearing in cameo roles and simply making fools of themselves is a lighthearted break from standard Hollywood blockbuster. To really "get" Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, you do need to watch at least a couple of Smith's older movies (Clerks, Mall Rats, Chasing Amy, Dogma), especially to catch some of the jokes. So in short, if Kevin Smith's vulgar humor is what you enjoy, then it's definitely a worthwhile buy, but if you didn't appreciate the crudeness in some of his other movies, perhaps it's best to pass on this one...
Rating: Summary: One of the Worst Films of All Time!!! Review: I recently saw "Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back" at the home of an older sibling and I must say that this film is downright disgraceful!! Basically, it's a 10-minute film that is expanded nearly ten times the length by being padded out with an endless stream of profanity and useless innuendo. Although there are some noteworthy cameos from some well-known actors in this film, their appearances do not save this film quick enough. Unfortunatley, this film is a failure from the very first 'f-word'-this occurs less than a minute after the film has begun. How "Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back" made it onto the big screen is beyond me. How it made it onto DVD is even more questionable. There is no acting and there really isn't much of a storyline either. However, there is one scene in the film that sums up the entire movie. It is where Jay and Silent Bob are reading bad reviews on a film they recently made. Basically, what they were reading is correct of THIS film. "Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back" is a complete waste of time and money. Thank goodness I saw this film before even considering to buy it. This film does not even deserve the 'one-star' rating above. I give it 'half a star' only because the cameos are the best thing about this film. As for the rest of it? I'd recommend setting up a video camera, recording yourself and a silent friend saying roughly 90-minutes of foul language with lewd behavior, and you'll more than likely have made something as equal, if not better, than "Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back".
Rating: Summary: funnier than joe dirt Review: this is easilly the funniest movie ever. a movie filled with bad language , and drug and ... humor. parents consider that a warning. still if you're mature enough watch this hysterical movie by kevin smith the director genius behind some of the funniest... humor filled movies ever with the exception of dogma. Jay and Silent Bob " Smith And Mewes " are off to hollywood to stop a movie from being made about their likenesses Blunt Man And Chronic. On Their Road Trip They Meet Some Very Trippy Charectors Including Scooby Doo ,The Hot Jewel Thieves Or As Ali Larter Says Bad Girl Cliches , Wildlife Marshall Willenholy " Will Ferell " , And A Bunch Of Cameos Including Wes Craven , Matt Damon , Ben Afleck , George Carlin , Jason Biggs , Chris Rock , Jamie Kennedy , And James Van Der Beek . This all results in a fun ride of comedic genius.
Rating: Summary: so bad, it's funny Review: I mean, you see a movie like this, you know what you are getting into. It is not so much a story as a series of endless gags. The big setup is the idea of this brainless slacker who swears as frequently as a carrier drinks water on a summer's day. It is funny, and i got a few laughs in there, in between the snacks etc. At the end, on stage, you just knew that Kevin Smith was acting out the fantasy of 'performing' with one of his fave 80's soul bands. Feel good movie about dissing "the man", and "feel" starts with the letter "f"...plenty of that here.
Rating: Summary: My Jungle love Review: This movie is just straight out funny. Jay:Just your average stoner who hung out in front of a store with his friend Silent Bob. When they go to a comic store, and find out that they are being put into movies, they want their check, but when they find out, people think there just freakind dumb, stoners, then they try to stop the inevetable, prevent the movie from being made. Silent Bob:He doesn't talk much, but he's Jay's best friend. He agrees on everything Jay does, and he goes with Jay to stop the movie, so he wont be called him names, for the rest of his life, as well as Jay. Right when the movie started, it was just flat out funny. I memorised the whole song easily. But just like a lot of comedy movies I see, it got weak near the ending. Just when it was blazing with comedy, it just ran out of gas. But if you love comedy, and are looking for something worthwhile, I don't need to say anything, pick this up. peace
Rating: Summary: Hope it offends you all Review: I love this movie because it will rub many the wrong way. However I did not give it 5 stars because at times the humor is down right corny (ex: the girls robing the jewels and trying to avoid the beems)...lude conduct, Obscene language, strong sexual content, and probably one of the foulest comedies you can watch, what more could you ask for? Great beer movie
Rating: Summary: it[s bad]... NOT! Review: This movie is so damn funny. It rocks. Its got some funny characters, funny plots, nd well... its just funny. I think that any one who likes comedy movies or watches comedy central should buy this movie. It also on show time and HBo sometimes if ya have didgital cable. C ya!
