Movie Reviews of Now You Know
Movie Review: a non-actor who acts, writes and directs with great talent !!!
Summary: 5 Stars
Jeff Anderson has been known to say that he doesn't consider himself an actor - at least he didn't both before and after Clerks (1994). I have said and still say he was at the time of Clerks a diamond in the somewhat slightly rough - someone I have looked forward to doing more both in front of and behind the camera. And he's really had a great mentor of sorts in Kevin Smith. Now You Know could fit into the style of a Kevin Smith movie - sure it's indie - and it has some sick jokes (who doesn't love them), but it really has a mark that must only be from Jeff Anderson. He really writes well for both his male and female characters. They are enjoyable to watch and are worthy of our attention. It's in his subtleties that he really shines, the words and actions not expressed outwardly, but understood by the audience. All characters are well rounded, and even though the three fellas, Jeremy, Biscuit and Gil have some twisted logic among them, they all have redeeming qualities that make you love them all the more. Jeremy learns, if not too late, what it is that he wants and how to go about getting it, Gil steps up to the plate with great care and intensity, and Biscuit finds a great use for a bowling ball and some extra chains.
Jeff Anderson also offers a brilliant performance in the latest installment of the Jersey "trilogy" (Clerks II), how many is it now: Clerks, Mallrats, Chasing Amy (the original trilogy), Dogma (it heads to Jersey), Jay & Silent Bob (it starts in Jersey, Jersey Girl, Clerks II ... I count 7 ! Returning as Randal Graves, he's sharpened his sarcastic and crude wit to a fine point, but this time we see so much more from Randal - in his conversations with Elias, a 19 year old employee at Mooby's and soon to be the latest partner in crime of 32 year old Randal, we see a brotherly relationship, one of noogies, spit balls, and hysterical wordplay. Pay close attention to his scene with Elias and the Pillow Pants reference, when Randal calls Elias his new best friend - there is a sincerity and sadness that Anderson really taps into and expresses with an understated beauty. Also his final scenes with Dante (from the donkey lovin' onward) really rip out my heart.
But I digress, back to Now You Know ... I must say I am waiting with great anticipation for the next outing from Mr. Anderson - what can I say, I LOVE my Jersey Boys ...
