A few years ago, I caught about 15 minutes of this movie and that was quite enough for me. Unfortunately, one of my friends has a copy of this movie and wanted to watch it the other night. I rolled my eyes and prepared to fall asleep on her couch. Well, ...
Pros: The audience is spared some of the vivid sexual details. Cons: The f word is used over 200 times plus other colorful phrases.
I was fortunate to be off on this Labor Day weekend and had the opportunity to go to the movies for I though would be a little comedy relief. Kevin Smith’s new comedy “Jay and Silent Bob Strike back” is a comedy that takes pot shots at Hollywood,...
Pros: Consistently funny Cons: Appeals to a younger age demographic; not first-time viewers of Kevin Smith
Over the course of the last seven years, writer-director Kevin Smith has given us a series of New Jersey tales that have mixed humor with insight into the things that matter to his generation. All of them have included a duo known as Jay (Jason Mewes)...
Pros: A handful of truly uproarious scenes... Cons: ...buried in a whole lot of stagnant vulgarity.
I can't tell you all how much I was looking forward to seeing Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. As a longtime supporter of Kevin Smith and his films (despite only really "liking" two of his four earlier films), I was anticipating a non-stop...
Pros: Hilarious! Hilarious! Hilarious! This film is a non-stop joke-fest. Cons: A few of the jokes just don't work.
Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back is a hilarious comedy that takes a swing at everybody and manages to connect consistently right smack on your funny bone. By far, this is out-and-out the funniest film of the year.
Pros: Not really. The blonde clerk from 'Clerks', who we haven't seen for a while. Cons: Pretty well everything.
The question actually becomes, 'Is there anything to say about this movie?' The answer, oddly enough for a self-proclaimed movie critic, is no. This movie just comes down to a recommendation, a thumbs-up or thumbs-down. There is simply no point to...
Pros: Smart comedy with a great cast Cons: Shannon Elizabeth is a cancer on Hollywood
Yep, that's right folks...for once I actually got off my lazy tail and caught a movie during its sneak preview. This was an unprecedented event for me, as I am famous for shunning big crowds and only catch in theater flicks during midday hours (thus...
Pros: Lots of old favorite 'View Askew' characters appear in cameos. Cons: It's sloppy, poorly written and not very funny.
I know all of my fans have been waiting with incredible anticipation for me to report on my Lester, Live at Red Rocks!!! concert and PBS fund raiser. We taped last night and I'm sure it'll be one of public television's more memorable evenings....
Pros: Lots of celebrity cameos and laugh out loud funniness Cons: A few things don't work
Kevin Smith's Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back is one of the funniest movies I've seen in a long time. It is very creative, very original, very hilarious, and very dirty. Althought it has no nudity, it does have enough profanity and sexual innuendos to...
Pros: References to earlier movies, Shannon Elizabeth, The monkey Cons: Crude, Lacks substance, Acting is uninspired
Hey, before I begin, has anyone else noticed problems today with using Epinions’ search function for products? I was all set to post my pre-written review of The Lorax cartoon, but when I did my product search to find it (I had checked earlier to...
Pros: Damn near the funniest movie I've ever seen Cons: crude and potentially offensive humor, but presently in an almost classy way
Kevin Smith is the man!
The writer/director of CLERKS, MALLRATS, CHASING AMY, and DOGMA has once again upped the ante in what I believe is to be the last of the CLERKS series made by his View Askew films. Jay and Silent Bob, the lovable...
Pros: This is the end of the Red Rock NJ Series Cons: This is the end of the Red Rock NJ Series
Introduction
This review is part of the Hard_to_Please Love Fest, organized by diverpam, for our friend Mark (Hard_to_Please) who was recently diagnosed with advanced cancer. All funds raised this write-off will be donated to...
Pros: Jay and Silent Bob, Cameos, Funny Funny Funny. Cons: Last J&SB movie, Not for everyone due to vulgar humor.
Director Kevin Smith finally gives his drug-dealing duo, Jay and Silent Bob the spotlight in his newest flick Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. Having appearances in Mall Rats, Clerks , Chasing Amy, and starring roles in...
Pros: Some hilarious and subversive humor. Cons: Some of the jokes don't hit the mark.
(As I sit down to write this review I hear a loud knock on my front door. I get up from my computer to answer and find myself confronted with two guys I would rather not see right now. The faces of Jay (Jason Mewles) and Silent Bob (Kevin Smith).)
...
Pros: Some funny parts, hasn't quite lost the attitude Cons: Hit/miss jokes, acting, language, rough pacing
In an effort to escape watching The Lawrence Welk show last Saturday night*, I decided to go out to the movies. After searching all over the place for a theater (boy they are closing down a lot around the Seattle area!), I finally settled on...
Pros: same old characters back again, funny, doesn't take itself seriously Cons: may not be funny for those unfamiliar with Kevin Smith movies
Disclaimer: Since this film is rated R for (according to promotional materials) nonstop crude and sexual humor, pervasive strong language and drug content, this review is bound to contain language that may be offensive to some readers. If you...
Pros: Funny, crazy antics Cons: Too much Jay, too convoluted for my taste
I firmly believe that Kevin Smith made this film to show that he made it as a director. The director of such acclaimed films like Clerks, Chasing Amy, and Dogma (sorry Mallrats) has made films that are perfect for his target ...
Pros: ::Simply hilarious! Countless cameo's:: Cons: ::Holden is not the same. May be too immature for some::
Ever since 1994, when the independent film “Clerks” hit the silver screen, two characters known as “Jay” and “Silent Bob” were a household name. They went on to do a few short MTV spots, a few other feature films...
Pros: Comedy riot with tons of hidden jokes. Cameos. Cons: Tons of cussing.
Jay and Silent Bob set out for Hollywood to stop the production of a movie based on a comic book which is based on their lives. They travel from New Jersey to Hollywood and along the way encounter a hitch-hiker that lives by “the book”, a nun that also...
Pros: Smart, funny, well-acted, fast-paced comedy. Cons: Not exactly groundbreaking, but were you expecting it to be?
More than other filmmaker in recent memory, writer-director Kevin Smith is unusually receptive and accessible to his rabid (and consistently growing) fanbase. The discussion board on his official website (viewaskew.com) is legendary for the amount of...
Pros: Funny dialogue; always great to see a new Kevin Smith film Cons: Too many dick, fart and gay jokes; a reliance on celebrity cameos
Jay and Silent Bob are a joke that gets a little less funny with each subsequent retelling, so it's probably a good thing that Kevin Smith's Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, the fifth film to feature the popular stoners, has been christened their...
Pros: A lot of jokes that hits, and the first ever good Shannon Elizabeth performance. Cons: Too many lame gags and needless cameo's.
Ask a person on the street what they think of Kevin Smith, and you can guarantee their answer will be a variant of either I love his bitingly satirical mix of comedy and drama or I think hes a self-referential, sexist homophobe....
Pros: see this movie! Cons: bashes 'gay' as an adjective...
An admitted weakness of mine is for the shock-value/infantile humor movie, a comedic sub-genre not disincluding such greats as Freddy Got Fingered, Austin Powers, South Park, and Road Trip among others. Such a movie also makes my 'best of all time' list...
Pros: The perfect end to a great film universe that pokes fun at the 'net. Cons: Chris Rock was just as unfunny as Roger Ebert said he would be.
Before I even start my review of this film, I feel the need to admit that I am, indeed, a Kevin Smith fanboy. Through the years, Kevin Smith has taught me much about life including, but not limited to, obscure vocabulary words, acceptance of those who...
Pros: Almost painfully funny in places. Delightfully silly. A nice break from a PC world. Cons: Shallow. Many jokes fall flat. Some cameos are a bit wasted.
I can never see Jay And Silent Bob Strike Back ever making it to free-to-air TV here in Australia. With the way our censorship of television goes, I expect the cleaned up for TV version of the film would run for about 90 seconds.
...
Pros: Knows and loves its audience... Cons: ...but has no time for anyone else.
A SOMEWHAT HIGH-CONCEPT REVIEW OF THE MOVIE PROPER
What we have here is a film for very particular tastes. It's certainly not for everyone. Are you ready for the appealing coprolalia that is “Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back”? To find...
Pros: Tracy Morgan......Will Ferrell a little Cons: script, acting, Shannon Elizabeth, ...pretty much everything
“Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back” can in no way give you a communicable disease. That’s the good news. The bad news is that it’s a terrible, stupid, criminally un-funny movie that is sure to disappoint even the most faithful Kevin Smith fans. On the...
Pros: Kevin Smith, Jason Lee, Randal & Dante, Ben Affleck, Matt Damon Cons: None of the usual Kevin Smith wit, too commercialized
I just returned from the sneak preview of Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. I'm a fan of Kevin Smith movies, I even liked Mallrats. Kevin Smith has a biting, dry, intellectual wit that makes his movies fun and funny. His characters are...
Pros: The Usual Dead-On Pop Slamming Cons: Too Much Reliance On Slapstick And Toilet Humor
Kevin Smith has been on a roll for years now with his ongoing series of films revolving around a few key characters, two of which being two lovable losers by the names of Jay (Jay Mewes) and Silent Bob (Smith). In Clerks, the two...
Kevin Smith is not a good filmmaker. Heck, he's not even that good of a storyteller. The insightful and touching freak anomaly Chasing Amy aside, Smith has proven time and again that he's not cracked up to be a director. There is an avid fan base...
Pros: Some pretty funny scenes. Cons: The funny scenes became redundant kind of quickly.
Seeing a Kevin Smith movie is intentionally what people will do to get a good laugh. Kevin Smith is the director of Jay and Silent Bob: Strike Back, amongst other favorites like Clerks and Mallrats. Each one of his gems is another step into the history ...
Pros: Lots of cameos and references from old Smith movies Cons: Too many cameos and somewhat alienating for non-Smith fans
I can’t remember the first time I saw Clerks. I must have rented it from the video store in 1995 or so. I absolutely loved it. I also liked Mallrats, but did not really enjoy Chasing Amy. Two years ago, my boyfriend (who is even a bigger Kevin Smith...
Pros: Good satire; decent number of laughs Cons: At times, it felt like a protracted Beavis and Butt-Head sketch
Sometimes, the hardest films (or products, for that matter) to review are those that fall squarely “down the middle.” Such is the case with Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, an alternately amusing and frustrating outing from...
Pros: First & Third Acts are Incredibly Funny. Smith fans will LOVE it Cons: Shannon Elizabeth. A slightly weak second act.
Directors and actors all the time talk about making movies for their fans. Just last November, Adam Sandler gave Little Nicky a speech impediment because he claimed “that’s what the fans wanted.” Well, Sandler obviously doesn’t know his fans the way...
Pros: Big talent featured, some sharp wit. Cons: All that foul language, with too much genitals and flatulence too.
I'm not biased in any way. I went in with an open mind. Not having seen any of Kevin Smith's films (Chasing Amy, Dogma, etc.), my mind was a clean slate. But when right from the get-go, my ears get assaulted by F-word this, S-word that,...
Pros: Not behind the camera, that's for sure. Cons: Will Ferrel and Tracy Morgan; will someone please explain to Hollywood these guys aren't funny.
Prior to seeing Chasing Amy I was more or less unaware of Kevin Smith’s films. I’d heard of them, and seen Clerks (and was not impressed). That was about it. Then one fine day I was bored and, by pure chance, decided to rent Chasing...
Pros: The script. The hysterical in-jokes and cameos. The incredibly inspired last half... Cons: Shannon Elizabeth. A few too many gay jokes.
When it comes down to it, there are two reasons I became so devoted to the world of writing. These two influences, you might say, may very well be cliché by now and even expected of such a film fanatic like myself. But I can easily remember the days that...
Pros: Kevin Smith's warped sense of humor once again zings the Hollywood machine Cons: Gross and vulgar humor and enough profanity to never ever make it on network television
The world, according to Kevin Smith, is a warped place to live...
And rest assured, we'll gratefully shell out whatever money that's necessary to take this fifth trip into the gnarly world that Smith evidently calls his home.
Pros: Inside jokes (Smith film-specific and Hollywood in general); Affleck, Damon, Biggs. Cons: Shannon Elizabeth; fart jokes; Shannon Elizabeth; first half of movie; Shannon Elizabeth.
Fart jokes or Hollywood satire? Or both? Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back has a lot of both to squeeze into 1:45 or so, and it succeeds (for better or worse) on both counts.
Pros: Morris Day, massive amounts of funny, Mewes and Smith Cons: Profanity, a lot of gags that fall flat, it ends
Yup, time for another foray into the world of View Askew. Truly, the lord has answered the prayers of VA fanatics, (or at least me) by giving everyone's favorite dunderheaded, ganja puffing duo their own film. While relegated to small but usually...
Pros: Funny, great acting, tons of bonus crap, great storyline, Kevin Smith is cool Cons: some of the humor might make some people mad
A lot of people didn't like this movie obviously because of the crude humor for all 104 minutes of the movie, but I liked it. I've always like Kevin Smith's movies because I used to be a huge comic book freak and he is a comic book writer so I thought I...
Pros: Kevin Smith-The Writer and Director, cameos galore Cons: Kevin Smith-The Actor
In the Star Wars trilogy "The Empire Strikes Back" provides the focal point of the trilogy. When it ends, the future is uncertain for the rebels, Luke got his hand chopped off, and Han Solo is frozen. The note is a downer and it sets up the audience...
Kevin Smith's best movie in my opinion but to get a good amount of the jokes you have to have seen every movie Kevin smith had put out to this point. You know clerks, mallrats, dogma, jersey girl, and chasing Amy if you haven't seen most of these movies ...
Pros: The genius of Kevin Smith...hilarious. And everyone's back! Cons: Shannon Elizabeth, some flat humor, the last installment of the NJ "trilogy."
Snootchie bootchies!
Starting with 1994's Clerks, director Kevin Smith has created 5 films centered around his home of New Jersey. These reality-based movies have introduced many memorable characters, ones that fans have been able to relate to...
Pros: Funny, Allusions, Character Progression Cons: Predictable, So Much Was Cut!
"Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back" is one of those films that people tend to take or leave and they take it if they enjoy Kevin Smith's prior works ("Clerks," "Mallrats," "Chasing Amy," and "Dogma") and leave if they haven't seen or didn't enjoy Smith's...
Pros: Sharp witted comedy, some relevant social jabs Cons: Forced ties to other movies, a bit too over the top
Dependant upon perspective and social sensitivity, Kevin Smith is either one of the smartest presences in Hollywood, or one of the most pretentious and obnoxious. His films usually represent a delicate, biting, sometimes hard to swallow, but difficult...
Pros: occasionally hilarious dialogue; the comic stylings of James Van Der Beek Cons: reliance on "Hot Shots"-type randomness contradicts what Smith used to be about
On many occasions, Steve Buscemi's brief movie appearances would make one wish he would be given an entire movie. Whether making "Fargo" even better or providing the only decent moments in a piece of Adam Sandler dreck, he would steal the show for a...
Pros: A lot of fun inside jokes for die-hard Kevin Smith fans... Cons: Too disjointed and sketchy for my tastes.
Kevin Smith's Askewniverse closes with this final chapter, Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. And while its a fond farewell to some old friends, fluffy fun, and an insiders satire of Hollywood, it's still not up to par with his other films. If you ask me, I...
Pros: Funny, nice to see many characters re-appear. Cons: Humor is broad, but will seem alot less funny to non-fans.
writer/director/actor Kevin Smith first appeared on the scene back in the mid-90s (God... has it already been so long?) in the midst of the now-legendary boom in American "independent" film spawned by the rise of Quentin Tarrantino. Smith's film was a...
Pros: Absolutely hysterical and oddly sweet Cons: Self-involved, too many cameos
As a devoted fan of Kevin Smith's wry wit, I find myself suffering in the clutches of a fierce ambivalence regarding Smith's latest movie, Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back.
I recall watching Clerks with glee, giggling with my best...
Pros: Best cast since Mars Attacks! (Silent Bob takes out his patented Batman spear gun) Cons: Maybe the film parodies werent necessary; too long of a wait till the dvd.
Writer director Kevin Smith is a generous man. He has created a loving valentine to his fans and an elbow to his critics' teeth.
Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back showcases many of Smith’s characters from the Askewniverse (named for Smith's View...
Pros: funny Funny FUNNY Cons: The last visit to the View Askew universe
This film is filled with sexist humor, racist humor, fat jokes, drug jokes, fart jokes and anti-gay humor. Of the two films I saw today, this was the slightly less mature of the pair- and the other one was "American Pie 2"! (Beginning to sound like a...
Pros: Some hilarious dialogue, Jay, Silent Bob, numerous references to past Smith flicks Cons: Some downright stupid parts, not much of the intelligence that made his other movies great
Since the advent of Smith's filmmaking career with his breakthrough indie film Clerks, Kevin Smith has made quite a name for himself with his Jersey flicks. Using sharp dialogue and controversial themes to deliver supremely hilarious movies time...
I'll be honest, the penis jokes in Kevin Smith's
latest film grated my nerves. I kept saying to myself,
"He's way to talented for bathroom humor." Check out "Clerks" if you don't believe me. That film had a bit more class and a bit more...
Pros: Sharp and stupid at the same time - cool cameos, revisit the Kevin Smith players Cons: Of course it's crude, but is that such a bad thing?
First off, I enjoy Kevin Smith’s movies, particularly ‘Clerks’ and ‘Chasing Amy’. I like how he shares his characters from one movie to another. But you can still enjoy it even if you haven’t seen them before. There are a few obscure jokes that you won’t...
Pros: Lots of great, crude humor and satire Cons: Gets too self-referential after a while, also the ending drags out
After throwing the Industry a curve with the provocative, low-budget "Clerks" in 1994, Kevin Smith came up short several times in trying to re-capture that film's rough, gritty comedy. However, in "Jay and Silent Bob", Smith finds just the right mix of...
Pros: Jay and Silent Bob. Cons: Sloppy writing in places.
Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back (or JSBSB for short) is an unusual film in that it almost requires that you've seen writer/director/actor Kevin Smith's other films (Clerks, Mallrats, Chasing Amy and Dogma) to truly appreciate it and to get the multitude...
Pros: Kevin Smith made it, numerous allusions to classic and comedy films. Cons: None.
Kevin Smith is a genius
He knows what people want to see, and he delivers it in a fantastic package. I think all of his movies show a high level of maturity, despite the proliferation of gay and fart jokes. This movie is no exception, and is...
Pros: Great script, Jay and the camcorder,
inside jokes and cameos Cons: Last of View Askew series, may be really offensive to most people
This is the fifth and final installment of the View askew Universe that combines and interconnects all the characters and pop culture all into one. The great thing about these movies is each movie has a very simple story and then evolves into something...
Pros: Any Kevin Smith film is better than none. Cons: Kevin Smith's Teen Gross Out flick
So, Kevin Smith takes a meeting with execs from Dimension Films and they say.... "Kevin, baby, you gotta go mass market. Do the Mall Rats thing times ten and you're gonna be mondo bankable in this town as a teen movie director..."
Did it happen? I...
Pros: Funny Cons: Very Bawdy might be to much for some.
A few years back, an unknown writer/director by the name of Kevin Smith financed his first film by selling his collection of Comic Books and maxing out all of his credit cards. The film was "Clerks" and it became the surprise hit of 1994 and...
Pros: Full of inside jokes, very funny, great cameos. Cons: Won't get all the inside jokes, moves really fast.
First of all I want to point out that I hate it when a review tells too much about a movie. I promise not to give this movie away. I’ll give you an idea of what it’s about and why you may or may not like it, but the fun is in seeing the movie, not...
Pros: Funny and well-written Cons: A little amateur
Kevin Smith’s first film, 1994’s Clerks, introduced the two slackers in the title: Jay, a lanky, hyper, swear-spewing stoner; and Silent Bob (Smith himself) as Jay’s mum best friend. In Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, the pair find out that a film is set...
Pros: His five films (+1) form the core of my artistic cosmology. Cons: Don't expect a movie; "jay & silent bob have left the building."
If you can't discuss Smith's Jersey Trilogy and its two satellites believe the bad press and walk away from this review. When given the right expectations, you simply must go see Silent Bob's requiem. I will divulge nothing here you would not otherwise...
Pros: A cavalcade of stars... Cons: ...who are given nothing to do.
Jay (Jason Mewes) and Silent Bob (Kevin Smith), slackers extraordinaire, are kicked off their perch in front of the convenience store. Shortly thereafter, they run into Holden McNeil (Ben Affleck), the creator of a comic book called ‘Bluntman and...
Pros: The in-jokes are great, lots of amusing cameos, funny movie Cons: No real plot, language will be too much for many to handle
Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back
While Hollywood was churning out bland cinematic drivel, a young filmmaker was busy hocking everything he owned to make his first movie. Kevin Smith's "Clerks" was an unconventional low budget film whose...
Pros: Brilliant satire of Hollywood and of previous View Askew flicks as well Cons: Too slick sometimes, tries to do too much
Ahhhh, God amighty, where were you the first time you saw "Clerks"? I was sitting on my neighbor's couch with a tall can of Foster's lager. That tall can ended up, for the most part, being sprayed out of my nose from laughing so hard.
Pros: Will Farrell, Shannon Elizabeth, Slacker Trilogy Cons: Chris Rock, Movie Spoofs
Dislike:
Chris Rock
Chris Rock’s character in the movie was too offensive. You might assume that I am not a fan of Chris Rock, but I have the bigger and blacker CD, his DVD, his book, etc. Why would I have purchased all of...
Pros: Brilliant cameos and chemistry between J+SB Cons: Satirizing Hollywood is like aiming a bow and arrow at the entire universe.
Jay and Silent Bob are an endearing comic duo, the creation of director/co-star Kevin Smith (who plays Bob). Jay (Jason Mewes)is the dealer/stoner with rocks for brains who thinks the terms betches, slots etc. will endear him to women. He is a motormouth...
Pros: Jay and Silent Bob, many cameos, laughs laughs laughs Cons: Vulgar, adult only
When I found out when this movie was opening, I jumped at the first chance I had to see it. I'd have loved to see the sneak preview, but in my town, they really don't have those often.
We arrived a little late for the 7:15 showing because my...
Pros: All the usual suspects Cons: Asides to the audience
Kevin Smith had previously been one of those directors that I respected and admired as a scintillating, entertaining tinseltown mogul. There was I time that all a movie needed was his name listed as the director and I was there. Then DOGMA happened....
Pros: Hilarious gift to Kevin Smith's fans Cons: If you are not familiar with Smith's films, you may be confused
I don't know if there is anyone who has more fun making movies than Kevin Smith. His irreverence, love of pop culture, and observations of human relationships have made for a winning combination in CLERKS, MALLRATS, CHASING AMY, DOGMA, and the CLERKS...
Pros: Poop, Fart, and Penis Jokes. Cons: The reason why people don't get is just plain STUPID
First there was Clerks, then Mallrats then Chasing Amy, still then Dogma and finally Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back.
These movies for the most centered around Red Bank, NJ and the only thing they obviously had in...
Pros: Inside jokes to other movies, big name cameos, non-stop laughs Cons: jay and silent bob trying to carry an entire movie
Can two peripheral characters like Jay and Silent Bob carry a full length movie? Not without the cameo help of one of the biggest casts in movie history. Even with the little character builder at the beginning of the movie, how far can two...
Pros: A few amusing cameos. Cons: Plot, overused cliches, and it's completely unfunny, and I'm a fan of these guys!
This is one unfunny movie. It's sad that it's overuse of flatulence, pratfalls, and unnecessary overuse of the "f" word are considered funny rather than desperate. I wasn't offended, but if the "f" word is gonna be said so many times, at least make it...
Pros: Smith's laser wit slashes Hollywood "culture," playing its reality against the spin. Cons: Smith uses cliches for his roadmap to Middle America. Reefer culture prevalent.
Gertrude Stein once wrote of Oakland, California, "There is no there, there." Too bad she never met Hollywood, California.
We all think we know Hollywood. We watch Entertainment Tonight and read "People" magazine. Deep into its heart,...
Pros: Hysterical, Vulgar, continues on the Kevin Smith Regime of excellence! Funniest movie of the year!!! Cons: Not enough Jason Lee! Other than that... very few
Ladies and Gentlemen Kevin Smith has done it again! After the masterpieces that were: Clerks, Mallrats, Chasing Amy, and Dogma, I sat down in the movie seat with high expectations. After the wad of previews I looked up at the screen laughed at the first...
Pros: Must See for Kevin Smith fans Cons: You sometimes miss things when you are laughing
The wife and I just got back from a sneak preview of Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back....and I must say, I LOVED IT!!!
I only recently have gotten into the whole View Askew thing, but since that time, I have loved everying I have seen. When I heard...
Pros: Hilarious Cons: Goofy, over the top, some may find offensive
Last night I caught a sneak preview of Jay and Silent Bob strike back. Or, I should say I caught about half of it, because I couldn't hear half the lines for the thunderous laughter in the theater.
Pros: Kevin Smith at the top of his game. Cons: Does that make me dirty?
The plot is nothing, so forget that. But Kevin Smith’s subversive and irreverent wit is running at 100% efficiency for this whole show, and that is well worth the money. The one liners are worth the admission price, and Smith got the go-ahead from...
Pros: Hero's! Humor! Jay's hynie! Truth be told this is a funny film! Cons: The DEA waiting outside the theater noting who is leaving.
Miramax brings us ‘Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back’! I laughed so hard! So often! I wet my pants from tearful enlightenment of knowing that this film may have some socially redeeming value, as well!
What can be said about 'Jay and Silent Bob Strike...
Pros: Some laughs, clever at times, an inside joke fest for devoted Smith fans. Cons: Extremely crude, not much humor for non-fans.
Kevin Smith's final chapter in his crude, twisted, stoned, clever, and often hilarious View Askew universe is Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, which is literally one big inside joke. The duo, who have played bit parts in each of Smith's movies now have...
Pros: Fine women who can hurt you.
Funny, hilarious Cons: Could have had a better plot though.
Okay I have not laughed so much at a movie since "Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey". This movie started off kind of hokey, but eventually became a movie worth to go see at least once. But as for seeing it again, well, I won't!
Pros: If you have seen all four previous movies, you will get this. Cons: If you haven't seen all four previous movies, you won't.
Kevin Smith is a god. Who else can keep every single detail of his previous four movies ("Clerks", "Mallrats", "Chasing Amy", "Dogma") so entwined - yet so separate that each movie can stand on its own?
Pros: Insanely Funny, Great Cast Cons: Bad Language, Not For Serious People
The fifth movie in the Kevin Smith saga, Jay & Silent Bob Strike back is arguably the best. While the acting in this movie isn't amazing, it doesn't need to be. Not to mention the plethora of starts that appear in this movie. Lead stars include Ben ...
Jay And Silent Bob was the dumbest movie I've seen in awhile. It was stupid and unfunny. I couldn't believe that a movie that looked so good ( in my epinion ) was so cr@ppy. Jay And Silent Bob Strike Back follows the story of Jay And Silent ...
Pros: The side jokes are extremely hilarious Cons: What the hell was with Shannon Elizabeth?
I was extremely excited with the new release of Jay And Silent Bob Strike Back coming out on video, I didn't get a chance to see the hilarious duo in theaters so I was very happy when I saw a commercial for it on Blockbuster. The movie stars unusual...
This movie was a waste of time for me. It was everything that makes me think I wasted my money. I was completely lost in exasperation over this one. In short, it was really bad.
Pros: Some funny parts; a monkey Cons: The usual intelligence of Kevin Smith movies is replaced by unfunny fart jokes
The reason I am such a big fan of Kevin Smith movies is because not only do they crack me up, but they do it intelligently. Just watch Dogma. Much of the movie's hilarity stems straight from its insightful brilliance.
Pros: The inane and absurd situations presented Cons: The horrifying realization that even Kevin Smith falls for cheap thrills
Perhaps you enjoyed DOGMA or CLERKS or were simply intrigued by this chubby dork of a filmmaker, Kevin Smith. He seemingly came out of nowhere to irreverently address todays' issues with a slew of crazy characters and situations. Kevin Smith, the savior...
Pros: Great fun for a Kevin Smith fan. Cons: Non-Smith followers will be clueless in the beginning and the end.
Ok I like Kevin Smith, and while I'm not a hardcore fan, I've seen all his movies and can get all the in-jokes in this movie. And believe me there are lots. The Movie begins with our two "heroes" Jay and Silent Bob (Jason Mewes and Kevin Smith) finally...
Pros: Hilarious, gritty, heart-warming ;) Cons: Not for the weak of heart
What can I say about Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, except this was one hilarious movie!
I have followed Kevin Smith's movies so far, and this was one great way to finalize the New Jersey Trilogy.
Many characters from earlier Smith movies,...
Pros: Occasional chuckles, Chris Rock. Cons: Mostly humor only a person with little intelligence (an idiot) will find funny.
It really doesn't matter that you see Kevin Smith's other works before seeing this. In my opinion, a movie must stand on its own in order to be successful. But this isn't a review (and nor do I care) about his other movies.
Pros: Leave the theater smiling and chuckle all the way home. Cons: Want to take Jay, Bob, and Suzanne home with me and can't.
Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back is a movie that made me laugh from beginning to end. Some of my laughs were small. But all of them were genuine. I love the dialogue, even with the foul language. I love feeling like I know Jay and Silent Bob. You...
Pros: very very funny, jay and silent bob finally get their own movie Cons: i wanted more monkey
There is nothing funnier in the movies than jay and Silent Bob. It was only a matter of time they got their own movie that was all about them. Kevin Smith did not disappoint either. Granted you have to have a certain kind of humor to love this movie...
Pros: For Kevin Smith Fans it makes perfect sense. Cons: "American Pie" is envading even my most sacred areas
Clerks, Mallrats, the forgivable Chasing Amy, Dogma, and now Kevin Smith has graced us with the one thing we all wanted deep down. Jay and Silent Bob Strike back gives us 2 hours of the Foul-Mouthed Stoner and his vouluntarily non-vocal pal.
True...
Pros: Classic Kevin Smith in his Second High Budget Masterpiece Cons: You have to have seen other Kevin Smith movies to understand most of the jokes.
First of all, I have to say that if you are not a Kevin Smith fan, or you don't even know who he is, then please don't waste your time or your money. I loved this movie, and even spent a night of my summer vacation to sit INSIDE the movie theater to see...
Pros: Good sequel for K Smith fans. Cons: Newbies may not get half the jokes and not like the vulgarity.
My temptation is to on the one hand say everyone should see this movie, yet in the back of my mind, I say only Kevin Smith or true Jay fans should take a bite of this sinful apple. I loved this movie for the dumb silly schtick it holds itself out to be,...
Pros: Refrences to Star Wars, Planet of the Apes, Gone with the Wind, E.T. etc. Cons: If you've never seen a Kevin Smith movie some of the characters won't make sense
ALRIGHT!! If any of you faithful readers of mine have read some of my summer movie reviews, you'll know that every single movie i've rated has been below the 5 star ranking. Well now after recently seeing "Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back" my faith in...
Pros: Kevin Smith's snappy dialogue and a whole bunch of crazy cameos Cons: Kevin Smith's snappy dialogue gone to waste
Saw a sneaky peek of Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back (JASBSB) a little bit ago and figured I drop you a brief note on my opinion of it. On the whole, I found the movie to be pretty funny, but it is kinda sad to see Kevin Smith going downhill with a route...
Pros: the moments in which silent Bob actually talks Cons: almost all of the cameo's suck!
Jay and Silent Bob,two characters created by writer/director Kevin Smith.He plays Silent Bob himself.It all started as a joke,with short appearances of the two in for example Smith's movie "Mall Rats".Smith gave the two characters more space in his movie...
Pros: Almost none Cons: Very immature, poor humour
I'm not sure why I agreed to even watch this movie. I'm not a Jay and Silent Bob fan, although they were amusing in Dogma (which, contrary to this one, is a good movie). I haven't seen their other movies (Chasing Amy, Mall Rats etc.), and I don't plan...
Pros: Hilarious!, Features a good line of famous actors and actresses Cons: Only funny to those who appreciate Kevin Smith's type of humor
I found Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back to be the second funniest movie by View Askew productions (the first being Clerks, the original). The starts out with Jay and Silent Bob in front of their usual drug-seling location, the Quick Stop (the store...
Pros: tons of stars, good connections to others in series, the women are hot Cons: need to see the other View Askew 4 to catch all the comedy.
Finally View Askew understood what we were all watching the other movies for, Jay and Silent Bob.
Although vulgar and harsh, Jay and Silent Bob have been the most colorful and entertaining continual characters of the series started by Clerks....
Pros: HILARIOUS! Cons: Sometimes stupid humor but it's still funny!
When I was dragged by my friend to this movie I figured I'd hate it and feel like I just wasted an hour and a half on yet another stupid movie, fotunately, that was not the case when I saw Jay and Silent Bob's day off! This movie starts out as two...
Pros: The View Askew Universe come to life, the cast, the humor Cons: intellectually devoid movie of View Askew
First off, let me say that "Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back" is faithfully created to the genesis of it's two title characters: the two blunt smoking, drug dealing, mall dwelling miscreants that have inhabited the likes of previous View Askew flicks such...
Pros: Several laughs in the second half, mostly when neither "Jay" nor "Bob" are on screen Cons: "Jay" and "Bob" are on screen at all, they're as un-funny as humanly possible
Let me reiterate, this was a comedy? I'm from Jersey, and I don't get it. I like crude, offensive humor, but I didn't find it funny here. In fact, the first half of the movie had one and only one really funny line in it when the lead characters made a...
Pros: Jay plucked his brows.
Cons: It isn't Dogma.
The first ten minutes of this movie are the funniest. As the screen opens, we meet Jay and Bobs moms': two skanky women whose immoral character is immediately apparent to us, the viewer, by a string of vulgarity from their mouths, in particular, the...
Pros: Funny, Very Entertaining. Cons: Some people may not get all of the **Inside Jokes**
Kevin Smith has the uncanny ability to write, direct and star in unbelievably funny once Cult, now mainstream movies. Smith is truly a genius, a unique individual that we are blesed with in the sometimes boring and predictable entertainment world.
...
Pros: Hilarious from start to finish, the jokes never get old. Cons: If you haven't seen any of Smith's earlier movies, some jokes won't make sense.
From start to finish, "Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back" is a non stop joke fest. The director and star Kevin Smith(AKA Silent Bob), goes for the jugular with his endless string of jokes that will undoubtedly offend some of the sensitive ears in the...
Pros: Smith fans will love this; good ending to the series Cons: Smith detractors will hate this; faults are there
Kevin Smith is someone you either love or hate. Guys like Ebert rave about his original dialogue and balls out approach. Others lament about the too much swearing his movies have, and some even just use the move reviews to bash him instead of the film he...
Pros: Some really funny scenes. Cons: Not enough to make into a feature length film.
Every once in awhile, in a season of "blah" movies, there comes a film so funny, so ingenious, so honest, that it puts the rest of the season to shame.
I haven't seen that film yet this summer, and as Septemeber wears on, it looks like...
Pros: Funny, funny, funny, good actors, the chimp... Cons: the plot was really stupid
Before I begin I have to tell everyone that I was just reading the movie details and it says the MPAA rating is PG-13. I don't know about everyone else but the movie I went to see was rated R. This is seriously not for sensitve teens, little kids,...
Pros: Fulls of laughs. Non-stop laughfest. Did I mention its funny Cons: A little bit too short.
Kevin Smith is one versatile man. He acted, wrote, and directed this movie. He plays Silent Bob, Jay is played by Jason Mewes. The movie starts out near a convenience store where two parents leave their children to shop for some groceries. It...
Pros: Outrageously Vulgar Jay and Stupendously Silent Bob Strike Back! Cons: The vulgar words and phrases almost made me wash my mouth out with soap.
Considering all of the movies this summer, this film is the green apple out of the big bushel of red apples. We've had The Mummy Returns, Rush Hour 2, Pearl Harbor, Captain Corelli's Mandolin, and American Pie 2. Ok ok, I guess there are two green...
Pros: If you are Die Hard Kevin Smith fan this is for you! Cons: None Really
"Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back" is a gift to fans of Kevin Smith and his totally Askew movies. I personally braved Indiana weather in August, a busted exhaust system on my truck, scary theatre staff, and drove the hour and a half from Terre Haute to...
Pros: Funny, good lines, References to previous movies. Cons: At times, a disjointed plot
This is the first (and only) movie of the "New Jersey" series that had Jay and Silent Bob as the main thrust of the movie. They are an entertaining duo, as Kevin Smith doesn't need a voice to be entertaining. When he uses his voice, it just adds to the...
Pros: Doesn't try at innovation or creativity - just a funny summer movie Cons: See above
With Kevin Smith's prior two works, Amy and Dogma, we visited a serious, somehow darker, side of Smith's range as a writer/director. Intriguing as it was, it somehow hinted that Smith was a little bit out of his element.
Pros: Funny, Hilariuos and did I mention Funny? Cons: Language, if you haven't see the previous movies, you just won't get some jokes.
JSBSB was the funniest movie I have seen all year. If you have not seen the prior films in this 'series', Mallrats, Clerks, Dogma and even Chasing Amy, you will be lost at times. If you don't like foul language then you definitely haven't seen any of the...
Pros: Sums up Jersey films nicely, featuring cameos of every major player from films Cons: A little choppy, raunchy humor may need to be toned down
Tonight, I saw a private screening of Kevin Smith's latest, Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back. Having been a long time fan of the director's films, I jumped at the chance to see an advance of this movie. However, let me preface this by saying this is an...
Pros: Attempts at comedy, supporting cast including a monkey can garner some laughs Cons: ultimate "sell-out" 13 year old jokes, practical effects from 1994
Boy, when I got on here I couldn't believe this film received 78% recommended. I wouldn't recommend this film to my worst enemy. That's how bad I truly thought it was.
When asked, I said I'd rather spend a week with Will in the Big Brother House...
Pros: Everything the true Kevin Smith fan wants! Cons: Anyone with no View Askewniverse experience is likely to be highly offended and disgusted.
As an aspiring writer/director/producer, I feel a natural inclination to root for the indie filmmaker. Kevin Smith makes it easy with his entertaining stories, true to themselves characters, well thought-out dialogue, intricate plots and unending cross...
Pros: really funny, especially the scenes with Ben Affleck Cons: many jokes are taken right out of other Kevin Smith movies
I am aware of the irony of writing a review of a movie like this, in which the major theme is dorky people with too much free time on their hands writing reviews criticising the Jay and Silent Bob movie in this movie. But I will not be criticising this...
Pros: Zany slapstick comedy that will make you smile and laugh Cons: Heavy language and non fans of Kevin Smith might be lost at times
The plot is simple and set up right from the start. "Bluntman and Chronic" is being made into a movie in Hollywood and Jay and Silent Bob as characters are being "dissed" on the internet, not to mention not even being compensated for using their...
Pros: great script, great cast, very very funny Cons: none
I was lucky enough to catch a sneak preview of "Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back" and I loved it! You probably know the plot from the commercials: Jay and Silent Bob travel to Hollywood to stop a movie that is being made about them without permission....
Pros: Funny, witty, lots of great celebrity cameos Cons: Lots of vulgarity
Kevin Smith's movies take a certain kind of sense of humor. If vulgarity and crudeness offends you, then this movie is not for you. If you're not easily offended and like to laugh, then I do recommend this movie.
Pros: Vulgarity at it's best! Non-stop laughs Cons: If you haven't seen the other Jersey flicks you may not get all jokes.
This movie is the ultimate tribute to fans of Kevin Smiths other movies, his "thank you" and swan song for the Jersey flicks. If you enjoyed any of the other movies - Clerks, Mallrats, Chasing Amy(my personal favorite), Dogma - than you will not only...
Pros: This is a good funny movie, but the language isn't the best... Cons: The rating should be R, but what the heck, kids like cartoons...
n “Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back,” the writer-director-costar lets loose with the
nonstop flatulence, sex and body-fluid jokes that percolated through his previous
movies — whether his first flick “Clerks”...
Pros: eliza dushku and kevin smiths writing Cons: matt damon
This was a great movie. Kevin Smiths writing abilitys are excellant. his mastery of dialogue runs very smoothly, unlike my talking abilities. The movie follows Jay and Silent Bob on a trip to hollywood. on the way they encounter many obstacles including...
Pros: Extensive lineup of extra characters Cons: They cut out some of the best scenes...just watch the extras!
Here's the scoop; Jay and his associate, Silent Bob, are two dope dealing stoners that have been ripped off big time by Miramax films. Their Bluntman and Chronic comic book idea was stolen from them, and they haven't seen one cent of the proverbial fat...
Pros: Very Funny Cons: Way to much cussing, too much sexual humor
Jay and Silent Bob strike back is a very funny movie. I mean really funny BUT I think it is too much for me! Every other word is the "F" word.......no I really mean that. It is all about sexual humor, and bad jokes. I think they over did it. If you...
Pros: This movie has everyone you ever wanted to see in a cameo Cons: Jay and Silent Bob are better used as background characters
I had high hopes for this film, and maybe I could have enjoyed it more if I had known a little more about what to expect. But I was disappointed. Kevin Smith has always been one of my favorite directors, but in Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back he...
When you say Jay & Silent Bob people usually have no clue what you are talking about. This was one of their better advertised movies but you still cannot compete with MallRats and Dogma. I think its a bummer that this is supposed to be the last Jay &...
Pros: Hot girls to look at and light-hearted humor. Cons: Dry vulgar humor.
Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back is an o.k. movie to see if you're strickly looking for hot male-hating babes and dumb,ugly,pot-smoking dudes. And dudes is what they are! Totally!
Don't be fooled by all the famous favorite actors you see in the...
Pros: best Kevin Smith movie ever! a must see! Cons: cut out some of the best deleted scenes
This was by far the best Kevin Smith movie ever. It had all the previous characters from Kevin Smith's movie. This included Ben Affleck, Chris Rock, and of course Jay and Silent Bob. It had many more famous characters like Shannon Elisabeth. This movie...
Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back is a good conclusion of director Kevin Smith's five movie saga with the recurring characters, Jay and Silent Bob. This movie showcases all of Kevin Smith's movies (Clerks, Mallrats, Chasing Amy, and Dogma) into a medly of...
I am from the home town of Jay and silent bob and ben affleck too, and thats red bank NJ. I've seen jay out at bars. So I watch these movies because these people are from my area and they use names of places near where I used to live. And they...
Pros: Funny, in certain circles. Cons: Not a movie for the kids.
I must say that I personally enjoyed the film. I always wanted a movie of just the two of them. I have loved to see them in "Mall Rats," "Dogma," and other random movies. It is a 'Gen-X' type of humor; I say this meaning that you must derive humor from...
Pros: Simply hilarious. Great flow and funny jokes. Cons: If you haven't seen the rest of Kevin Smith's movies, you will miss joke meanings.
Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. The name itself grants a small preview of what will be seen. Kevin Smith and Jason Mewes have returned as everyone's favorite fictional personalities in a vividly lampoonish look at movies, relationships, and life....
Pros: Closes up the story of all the view Askew characters. Cons: Only for the true fans of the View Askew storylines.
The final chapter to a five part story. I have to say that Kevin Smith did do a good job in making this movie. I mean look at him, he's an ordinary guy just like the rest of us, and he was able to take his ideas and stories and share them with the rest...
Pros: Revisits all of your favorites. Some great moments. Cons: Kind of Slow at times.
I love View Askew movies, but this is probably my least favorite. Jay and Silent Bob were always a breath of fresh air and good for a few laughs. They were never meant to carry an entire feature.
Pros: He got almost everyone from his previous films to come back for an encore performance. Cons: You won't get most of the inside jokes if you aren't familiar with his work.
You don't have to see all of his films to appreciate this one, but it surely doesn't help. If you saw these in theaters and were wondering why the audience was laughing and you weren't, the diretor was probably poking fun at some of his previous work....
Pros: Everything: writing, directing, pacing, and a hell of a lot of cameos Cons: The humor may offend some moviegoers
I love Kevin Smith. I love his humor, and JAY AND SILENT BOB STRIKE BACK has a lot of it. I am a huge fan of all Smith's films (Clerks, Mallrats, Chasing Amy, Dogma) and I thoroughly enjoyed the last installment of Smith's Askewniverse series. It...
Pros: The funny scenes are very funny. Cons: The not funny scenes are really not funny.
If you like Kevin Smith then you will enjoy a good deal of Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. The plot is basically a series of scenes to set-up the good stuff in this film. It's crude, rude, and sometimes hysterical. It really drags at times but the wait...
Pros: Some quality movie allusions. Entertaining farce. Cons: Half the vulgarity would have made twice the film.
There was genuine amusement to be had in this film.
The plot is notional, the cameos are fun.
Someone wise once told me that for real humor, you don't mock the good, and glorify the bad.
That is where the premise of the movie starts to...
Pros: Its a fun zany movie that everyone will love! Cons: They deal drugs in the movie.
Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back is a tale of adventure on the open road. When Dante and Randal get a restraining order to keep the punchy Jay and his life-mate, Silent Bob, from selling drugs in front of the Quick Stop convenience store, their lives are...
I want to start off by saying that I am a decent Kevin Smith fan. If you liked his other movies then JSBSB won't disappoint. The movie cracks fun at Hollywood like no other movie has before. Kevin Smith's humor is right on target through the whole...
Pros: non-stop laugher Cons: harsh language gets a bit wearing
For all fans of Kevin Smith's films, "Jay and Silent Bob" doesn't disappoint. For new fans, the film is accessible enough to enjoy without getting many of the in-jokes.
Similar to Beavis and Butt-Head's epic trek through the US in their film...
Pros: Funny + offensive; Kevin smith became a kid again to write this one Cons: will ferrel, a little change in style
a bit predictable, not enough lee
This movie was intended for Kevin smith fans. It starts out with a first few minutes that could have been in clerks. It takes off with jason lee , oh man kev started off ben afflec in the movie buisness. But he failed to get Lee' career soaring. Any Lee...
Jay and Silent Bob Strike back is the most recent of Kevin Smith's films. If you are an all the way View Askew fan you should see this movie. From Clerks to Jay and Silent Bob Strike back, all of Smith's movies should be seen for you fans. The plot of...
Pros: ha, not many Cons: more cons than lunchbox could eat at any one sitting.
i am a huge kevin smith fan. ive met the man, seen all his films, even own his comic books and clerks the animated series. but for the life of me i cant understand why this film was made, or even if smith really wrote it. i think jason mewes secretly...
Pros: Hysterical comedy, great delivery from a genius. Cons: None
Jay and Silent Bob. That in itself should be an indicator of how great this movie is. Anyone who has ever dealt with the general consuming public by now should have seen "Clerks ". which is Kevin Smiths introduction into his skewed view of life. (no...
Well my thoughts on this movie were very simple. There is many pro's and cons, i think the biggets pro was the charecters. Kevin Smith shows that he knows a cast when he invited almost all the cast form the Mall-rats, Clerks and Dogma back, and i must...
Pros: The same old Kevin Smith. Cons: The same old Kevin Smith.
Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back is a bit of an odd movie. If you're familiar with Kevin Smith's movies, this one offers a great deal of "inside jokes" that only fans will get. However, most of the movie will be old hat. If you're new to Kevin Smith, the...
Pros: Very funny, but very dirty, a lot of good cameos Cons: Again---Shannon Elizabeth, very dirty
Jay and Silent Bob, what can you say about them??? Or okay, Kevin Smith---what can you say about him??? You either love him or you hate him. I for one love him, he's an aquired taste and with each of his movies something controversial is around it that...
Pros: Absolutely hilarious! Cons: They use a lot of curse words.
Jay and Silent Bob is a hilarious movie and you should buy it no matter what! You will love it. If you don't like curse words every 20 seconds, then you shouldn't buy it. But if you don't mind, it is the movie for you. There isn't much else to say, but...
Pros: Jay and Silent Bob strike back is very funny Cons: if you dont like to hear curse words dont watch this film
My husband and i went out and bought this movie, i wasnt sure weather to get it or not because i never heard of it and didnt know if it was going to be worth it or not. So anyway we bought the movie and came home, made some popcorn like we always do,...
Pros: funny,action, many cameos, Shannon Elizabeth Cons: some might have trouble with jokes from reoccuring characters from the other series
A friend and I went to go see the first showing of "Jay and Silent Bob...", and after seeing it we were tempted to buy another ticket for the 7:00 show. I have never been in a movie theater where the people have laughed so hard. I strongly...
Pros: Very funny, but you'll miss some jokes if you don't see the whole series. Cons: There's no deep meaning, this is just a fun movie.
This movie is his funniest (yes, I think it's even better than Mallrats). Yeah, it may be overflowing with vulgarity, but that doesn't automatically mean it's a bad movie - just look at South Park! Fans who read the Chasing Dogma comics will notice a...
Pros: Funny, thrilling, and exciting Cons: bad plot not very serious
Jay and Silent Bob Was great comedy. They had everything from Star Wars rips to just plain old good humor. There was some dirty comedy and some clean comedy. The combination went well together. Jay is the "superhero" and Silent Bob is the "sidekick"...
Being a female, I guess I just did not "get it" I thought some of the jokes were funny, some were just plain painful to watch the actors try to seem interested. I think the perfect audience for this would be 15-25 year men. As for the star wars...
Pros: soooooo funny... READ MY REVIEW, MINE IS THE BEST REVIEW Cons: THERE IS NONE MUAHAHAHAHA
This movie is terrific. But not as recommended to the people who didn't see the rest of Kevin Smith's movies (Chasing Amy, mallrats, etc.) It's filled with inside jokes for those movie. The key element in this movies excellence is the fact that it has...
Pros: This movie is very funny. I loved it! Cons: Too much slapstick this time around.
I saw this movie a week ago. I thought it was very funny, but it had a little more slapstick comedy than other Kevin Smith movies that I've seen. I enjoyed how the movie revisited characters from other Kevin Smith movies such as Mallrats, Clerks, and...
Pros: Funny Cons: Plays with religion too much, profanity
This movie is quite funny, but I am sure there will be much controversy over it. It kind of pokes at religion. For instance, the actor that played the main priest in the catholic church used to be a standup commedian that would poke at religion. They say...
Pros: This movie is one of Kevin Smith's best. Cons: This is the last movie in the View Askew Universe.
Being a Kevin Smith fan for years when I heard he was doing another one i ran right out and bought my ticket.Bringing elements from all his earlier movies("Clerks,Mallrats,Chasing Amy,and Dogma")Kevin Smith pulls it off again.even if you haven't seen his...
If you know about Kevin Smith's work, then you're gonna say .....this is the best one!!! But that It's not essential,even if you don't know Kevin Smith's work, you are going to enjoy this film in more than one level.It is the best comedy of the...
Pros: really funny !! Cons: sort of pathetic script
I saw this movie last weekend, when the movie theater has a sneak preview. I went in, not really sure what the movie was about. It started and it was really funny !! Jay And Silent Bob are main characters in a comic book that a friend had written, that...
Pros: Funny, unforgiving punch lines Cons: Extreme amounts of language
If you haven't seen any Kevin Smith movies and you go and watch this one, then you might not understand some of the remarks and short liners in this movie. Eighty percent of this movie is based on the 3 other movies directed by Kevin Smith (Clerks,...
Pros: FUNNY FUNNY FUNNY FUNNY Cons: Very Bad Language
When I went to watch this movie I didn't know what to expect. After watching the movie I found it to be " Well worth the money". The movie starts you out laughing and still has you laughing at the end. I loved this movie because I like the "R rated"...
Hey all you movie goers! I just thought i would tel you all how good this movie is. This is one of the funniest movies out right now! If you have seen clerks, mall rats, and any other movies with Jay and Silent Bob, then you will love this movie even...
Pros: You will enjoy seeing previous characters from all of Smith's movies Cons: Lots of slow periods in between.
I am a big fan of Kevin Smith's. I have all his movies and enjoy his humor a lot, so needless to say I was excited to see Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. The Star Wars comments and inside jokes were great, and there were some very funny scenes through...
Pros: It's View-askew, What more do you need?
Smith Rocks! sorry Chris Cons: The F--K word overused in some spots, draged it down, but just for the moment.
The Movie Rocked. I laughed my self silly. It's clear whom Mr. Smith Idolized as a child. but than you knew that If you saw anyone of the other films. In this film, he invites all the people he grew famous with in, and invites them to rip themselves and...
