"I'm not even supposed to be here today! "

Produced in 1994 on a measly $27,000 budget, Clerks. was the feature film debut for Kevin Smith, and it proved to be his ticket into the industry. Smith reportedly financed the flick himself, selling off his comic book collection, maxing out his credit cards and borrowing money from his parents to produce this foul-mouthed, witty and extrem... read more

I already saw this movie so many times but since it was a while back and since I'm planning to watch 'Clerks 3' pretty soon on Netflix, I thought I might as well check it out again. First of all, the DVD I have is so old and the quality is just so awful so maybe I should check if I could find a Blu-Ray version. Anyway, after all these years, I still think it is one of the greatest movies ever made... read more

Brilliant original comedy. I have never seen such a powerful message set in a genre like this. Well done, Kevin Smith! Great message.

" Date: 9/3/2022 Viewed: Blu-ray Re-watch Note: With Clerks 3 coming out soon, I decided to rewatch the first film. Clerks is still a fantastic film almost 30 years later. I'll keep my review short because there isn't much I can say about this film that hasn't already been said. I love how Kevin Smith draws inspiration from both Jim Jarmusch and Richard Linklater, as Clerks has a similar tone to those directors' work (Stranger Than Paradise (1984) comes to mind). The plot, characters, and envir"

"FORMAT: 35mm CONDITION: ★★★½ NOTES: Preceded by separate, pre-recorded introductions by Brian O'Halloran and Kevin Smith. A scratchy print with some messy changeovers that added just a hint of colour to all the grayscale. But so what? This was my first indoor cinema trip since London was plunged into Tier 3. It’s just too good to be back. DATE: May 17th 2021 CINEMA: The Prince Charles Cinema LOCATION: West End"
