Movie Reviews of Clerks (Collector's Series)
Movie 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.
Summary of Clerks (Collector's Series)
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 KeoghIf 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.
