Movie Reviews of Clerks (Collector's Series)
Movie Review: Brian Lynch & Vin' Pereia love scene reason enough to buy
Summary: 5 Stars
A viewer from Shermer Illinois , April 12, 1999 Brian Lynch & Vin' Pereia love scene reason enough to buy This scene, cut from the original for it's steamy passion, is enough to make this DVD my first choice for Christmas this year. Brian's portrayal of Kiki Derris the wise apple lover of Ethan Sups (Pereia) will bring tears to the eyes of all but the most hardened. I don't want to spoil it for anyone, but when Kiki Derris said "I'm just a bitter overweight queen and nobody loves me" I wept.Other highlights from the restored cut scenes were "Randal's Sexuality Revealed," "Ming the Asian Design Major and Dante Fight," and "Lenin's Tomb gets Run Over."
What may be the most impressive thing about this special edition DVD is not what was put back into the film but what was taken out. In the scene with the ambulance driver and "Dante," a completely new actor was digitally superimposed over the original ambulance driver a la Star Wars Special Edition. The superimposed actor, Eon Bailey, adds new life and real acting ability to the roll of "The Ambulance Driver." Eerily this is the only black and white scene in this colorized version.
I can't say enough about this DVD...buy!!! buy!!! buy!!!

Movie Review: what do I think of clerks
Summary: 5 Stars
I saw a lot of stupid movies in my life , one's with a normal story bad guy's god guy's aline's and a lot of stupid stuff and stupid comedy's like American pie (which use's cheap sex joke's ) but this one is a true comedy nothing fake nothing unordinary but and i think thats why clerks is (if isn't) one of the greatest comedy movies ever made you can watch it as many time's as you want and you'll never get bored .. you might get bored of watching the same action movie that you know the ending and there is no point of watching it again but clerks make us laugh at the funny things that happen to us during our ordinary day the acting is so so funny ,actors making mistake's and sound like they are reading there scrip not saying it and there are some real talented actors like Scott Mosier (the guy who did Willam the Idiot and by the way he and Kevin Smith are the one's who Produced the movie) and also the low I.Q. Video Customer which is one of best parts of the movie
Kevin Smith is one of the best Directors that came out in the last 5 years , if your idea about a god movie is to have some god laughs' you well fall in love with this one but if you like movies that must have a story and a goal and a perfect plot .. i don't know you might not like it or who know's
Movie Review: A Frightening Prophecy that's too ... funny!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
Being an employee of a video store, I've come to this frightening realization that this film was a warning that I would end up being bombarded by the monotonous barrage of stupid questions and not to mention the vast array of cinematic illiterates (Oooh Navy Seals.) This film has given me the desire to vent my frustrations. Apart from that, it's just devillishly funny. This here is Kevin Smith nest egg. His platform onto bigger endeavors into the realm of independent film. Never have I encountered a script writer with such an aggressive wit. I don't know how he manages to make cuss words flow so fluenty from his characters, and supply us with a blunt, direct and surprisingly profound. Name any other comedy that actually probes the pathetic superficiality of the Star Wars trilogy, or has the gall toviolate a corpse at a wake, or even show pride in the insubordination of customer service. I'll face facts, these characters are my heroes. I hope one day to be allowed to spit water into an annoying customer's face. that would be sooooo beautiful. In the mean time I'll revel in this excellent DVD, complete with a ... load of special features. I hope you enjoy it as much as I have. Just remember "Title does NOT dictate behavior."Movie Review: In my top 10 all time favorite movies!
Summary: 5 Stars
Clerks is a definite gem of a movie and the first of the series in Kevin Smith of movies which go on to include Mallrats, Chasing Amy, Dogma, Jay and Silent Bob Strikes Back. Many of the characters become recycled in the follow up films to rehash the empire of brilliant personalities. Jay and Silent Bob are the two definate stand outs that come to be used numerous times in the other Kevin Smith films, after watching Clerks you will understand why.Clerks is fully filmed in Black and White, no Dolby 5.1 surround, no special effects, not even marquee actors. This film is totally dependant on character interaction and secondmost, the storyline. Entertaining to the Nth degree, the interaction of the primary two characters Randall and Dante guide you through their day in the life of a Video store and a Convenience store clerk. Along the way are many twists and turns as well as every kind of customer possible from violent, argumentative, nympho, hostile, and even one who dies in the bathroom.
It is impossible for me to do this film justice with my review. Being one of only 2 other movies that I have immediately rewound and played again after first seeing, Clerks is in my top 10 list of all time favorites!
Movie 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.
