DVD Reviews of Clerks (Collector's Series)
DVD Review: Clerks is awesome
Summary: 5 Stars
This was the movie that lead me to the genius that is Kevin Smith. This was his first movie and I think it's the second best movie he has ever made. This is one of the comedies that echo truth that exists in you that you can only understand if you have actually worked as a convenience store clerk. The lead character Dante Hicks has to deal with irate customers, a girlfriend that has issues with his stature in life, an nymphomatic ex-girlfriend, and a best friend that almost wants to see him fail.
This is one of the ultimate slacker comedies. I was first aware of because of an article in Details magazine hailing it as one the latest and greatest independent films released. I went out to Suncoast Video (do those even exist anymore?) and purchased the VHS tape for 29.99 and went home and immediately popped it in the video tape.
This is one the best movie for one liners that you repeat to your friends. This is one of the movies where either you get it or you don't. It's one of the greatest slacker comedies made. If you haven't seen this movie, stop what you are doing and go out and get it.
I assure you this post is closed.
DVD Review: the first and the begining of some thing new
Summary: 4 Stars
this was a great movie for its time looking back on it now it is so so but man it opened the door for a great man to make many more moviesDVD Review: IF YOU WANT A GOOD TIME, THIS IS IT!
Summary: 5 Stars
Our family had just been hit with another development in a devastating event which we had been trying to deal with for 10 years when "Clerks I" and "Clerks II" was delivered to our house. If you just want to decompress, chill out, and think about absolutely nothing "grown up", this is the movie for you. An hour and a half of sheer hilarity with some of the best deadpan acting since Charlie Chaplin. A rollicking good time. Part of the beauty of shoestring budget films is that every take must count. And whatever is deleted is just too funny for the world to handle. Thank you, Kevin Smith, for giving us a little while to just be silly.DVD Review: Must Have!
Summary: 5 Stars
For anyone that's actually worked retail, this is an excellent choice. In some parts, it's painfully accurate; in others, it's a realization of what many wish they could do and not lose the job at which they work. (At least it was like that for me.) Upon the first viewing, it's obvious that it's low budget; but once you think about it, do you really need a budget to describe a day in the life of your average Clerk? Not really.
All that aside; it's a hilarious, albeit filthy movie. Additionally the special edition is chock full o' extras, including the somewhat more depressing director's cut.
DVD Review: Just because they serve you, doesn't mean they like you !!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the definitive version of Clerks. if you are anything like me, when you first told other people about Clerks they probably said "Clerks, never heard of it." And when you said that Kevin Smith was the last saving bastion of the crumbling film world, they said "Kevin Who??"
Well now that all of those saps have finally caught up to the rest of us who are leading the pack. You can now get this and stay one step ahead again. The theatrical release, The first Clerks cut and a superb doco. All are priceless.
Even though there are some young sad Emo's out there saying "Clerks II, there was never a Clerks I"
Like a great man once said "I pity da fool"
10/10 for this 3-Disc, 10th Anniversary set and all of it's glorious extras.
Description of Clerks (Collector's Series)
If you're in the market for wildly funny entertainment, CLERKS delivers with wholesale hilarity! It's one wacky day in the life of a pair of overworked counter jockeys whose razor-sharp wit and on-the-job antics give a whole new meaning to customer service! Even while bracing a nonstop parade of unpredictable shoppers, the clerks manage to play hockey on the roof, visit a funeral home, and straighten out their offbeat love lives! The boss is nowhere in sight, so you can bet anything can -- and will -- happen when these guys are left to run the store.Before Kevin Smith became a Hollywood darling with Chasing Amy, a film he wrote and directed, he made this $27,000 comedy about real-life experiences working for chump change at a New Jersey convenience store. A rude, foul-mouthed collection of anecdotes about the responsibilities that go with being on the wrong side of the till, the film is also a relationship story that takes some hilarious turns once the lovers start revealing their sexual histories to one another. In the best tradition of first-time, ultra-low budget independent films, Smith uses Clerks as an audition piece, demonstrating that he not only can handle two-character comedy but also has an eye for action--as proven in a smoothly handled rooftop hockey scene. Smith himself appears as a silent figure who hangs out on the fringes of the store's property. --Tom Keogh
