Jay und Silent Bob schlagen zurück (2001)

Jay und Silent Bob schlagen zurück: Directed by Kevin Smith. With Jason Mewes, Kevin Smith, Ben Affleck, Jeff Anderson. The comic “Bluntman and Chronic” is based on real-life stoners Jay and Silent Bob, so when they get no profit from a big-screen adaptation, they set out to wreck the movie.

“Kevin Smith proved with J.S.B.S.B. that he is no longer just a glorified independent film maker. In past films, Kevin Smith seemed to have a limited appeal, mostly among arm-chair directors (such as myself)who had become jaded with the Hollywood film industry, but with his slap-stick-like middle finger to the movie industry he seems to have branched out and struck a note with the u0026quot;MTV audienceu0026quot; (10 to 16 year olds). Smithu0026#39;s grade-school humor, delivered mostly by Jay, is nothing new to previous movies, but with the focus on Jay u0026amp; Silent Bob this humor became more evident AND more inviting to a younger audience.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eNonetheless, Smith has not alienated his core audience who are, u0026quot;…over and underweight guys who canu0026#39;t get laid.u0026quot; (See Holden McNeil in u0026quot;Chasing Amyu0026quot;). The simple visual affects, as in his past movies, are FAR overshadowed by the fantastic dialogue he writes which has Hollywood stars chomping at the bit to deliver. If anything, the only disappointment was a very thin plot (OK, Mallrats: Had a plot, no one ever said it was a good one). But as he did in Mallrats, for what J.S.B.S.B. is lacking in plot, Smith sure as hell made up for it in laughs.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThis movie junkie gives u0026quot;Jay and Silent Bob Strike Backu0026quot; a 9 out of 10.. .letu0026#39;s just hope what Chris Rock says in the movie doesnu0026#39;t come true. See the movie and youu0026#39;ll get what I mean.”
