You never know what you’re getting with a Kevin Smith movie, it might be another Chasing Amy or it might be another Jersey Girl… Clerks II has had divided opinions also, on one hand it got an 8 minute standing ovation at the Cannes film festival, on the other, movie critic Joel Siegel walked out after 40 minutes appearently screaming obsenities…
So without further adieu.
10 years removed from the goings ons in the original Clerks film, the Quick Stop has recently burned down and Dante and Randal are working in a fast food joint called Mooby’s. After a year there, Dante is finally leaving the job, Randal and indeed New Jersey for a new life in Florida with his finacee… But never let something like a happy ending get in the way of the life of our favourite clerks, so we follow the ups and downs of Dante’s last day, because it wouldnt be a View Askew film without some trials and tribulations involving the main characters?
But be warned, if your easily offened then this might not be for you, it’s rated r for a good reason, put it this way, Joel Siegel walked out due to Randal talking about a donkey show, had he stayed to the end he probably would have had a stroke. Yes, there is an actual donkey show scene… But it’s not all offensive, it’s actually very funny too, espesially if you like previous Kevin Smith films…
Shame you people in the UK have to wait till god knows when to actually see it.
