Nonureva Really Surprised!
Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
Curapedi I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.
Brennan Camacho Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.
MisterWhiplash An Evening with Kevin Smith played recently on TV, at a time of day with not much else to do (or maybe just not wanting to do much else), and it is the kind of special that can suck in a fan. Basically, for the fans of Smith and/or his films, it's probably the place to hear all of the stories outside of the special features on his films films's DVD's. It's mostly just a string of stories, answers to questions of the fans at the talks, and a few cool surprises. Some of those are the impromptu appearances of Jason Mewes- on stage- and producer Scott Mosier on the phone. Some are also in the form of revelations, to one degree or another, by Smith. What makes the whole three hour+ special work even for someone not as much into the View Askew world (or maybe still a little sour from Jersey Girl) is how down to earth the filmmaker is through his sense of humor, in short, no pretense in his answers. It's really one of those specials people have an afternoon or night to kill can check out with a beer or some friends. Is it a little long? Sure, but it's never uninteresting either (the stories on Dogma and Mewes alone are worth it).
marobertson Before any Kevin Smith fans get bent out of shape, I think Smith's films range from simply amusing (Mallrats) to laugh-out-loud hilarious (Clerks/Dogma). I even think that Smith has some very insightful turns (Chasing Amy/Jersey Girl).That being said, simply watching this man stand and talk to an audience is the funniest thing I've ever seen him involved in. The stories of events that have actually happened in Kevin Smith's life, at least as told from his perspective, are more interesting and hilarious than any Hollywood script I can think of in recent years.If Smith decided to stop making movies, I honestly think he could have a career as a spoken word artist along the lines of Spalding Gray. I don't care what you think about Kevin Smith as a filmmaker, this is well worth checking out.
ThirtyFour41 I just watched this flick for the first time last night. First off, it was long as hell. So if you plan on watching it, make sure you plenty of time on your hands. But all in all, it was a great flick. Kevin is witty and humorous as usual, and answers some questions about his movies that we've all wanted to ask at some point. Like, "What is a Nubian?" Hehe. If you're a fan, check it out. If you're not, check it out anyway. The performance is topped off by a visit from Jason Mewes (Jay) and made even better when Kevin decides to make some phone calls on stage (his attempt to get one kid his job back fails). But I honestly think that if you're not a fan, you won't enjoy this as much as I did.Enjoy!
Lucien Lessard Writer and Director:Kevin Smith is a talented filmmaker. Starting from his first film "Clerks" to "Jay and Silent Bob Strikes Back". This "New Jersey" native has become a Icon towards the independent cinema. Which Smith is been asked intelligent or dumb questions towards five university's in the U.S. like Kent State, Clark, Wyoming, Cornell and Indiana. Smith does have a Special Guest in one of the university's visits his long-time friend/co-star:Jason Mewes.This amusing, extremely entertaining Q & A has some laugh-out moments. Which Smith talks about his spirituality, his sexuality, human relationships, his films, producer:Jon Peters, filmmaker:Tim Burton, how he met his future wife and meeting rock star:Prince. This two-disc set is almost 4 hours long, which the running time is 225 minutes. This is Q & A is long but never boring and always fun.DVD has an sharp anamorphic Widescreen (1.78:1) transfer and an good-Dolby 2.0 Surround Sound. This DVD has trailers and hidden features, which is deleted segments from his Q & A visits at the university's. Die Hard fans of this filmmaker might enjoy this one much more, while others might take a look. When Smith talks about he originally re-wrote the script for "Superman Reborn" (Which is due for 2006) is one of the highlights of this Q & A. (****/*****).
