  • 4 stars out of 5

    Director Kevin Smith's prize-winning debut feature is a micro-budget black-and-white marvel that showcases his dry wit and wonderful sense of the absurd. It focuses on a day in the life of a New Jersey convenience store, where the double act of Brian O'Halloran and Jeff Anderson amuses, charms and offends with endless, rambling discussions about sex, videos, food prices, sex, Star Wars and sex. Their counterculture diatribes are by turn screamingly funny and wincingly accurate, although those of a sensitive nature should be warned. Smith's direction is as delightful as it is often unreliable with the overall surreal atmosphere resembling a Generation X treatment of Are You Being Served?.

    Classic Cult Comedy

    The first of the Kevin Smith movies (followed by Mallrats, Chasing Amy etc) it was understandably low budget (hence the black and white) but that should not take away from what is a brillant script and the introduction of Jay and Silent Bob into the world.

    Basic plot: The things that happen to a convenience store clerk on the day that he's not even meant to be there.

    Not one for the kiddies (rather adult humour in it) but quick whitty script will make it thoughly enjoyable for anyone who has ever worked in customer service.

    jay and bob at there best

    i love this film to bits ! the best kevin smith film just ahead of dogma(which like 'jay and silent bob strike back' is more mainstream cinema).clerks has a very raw independent feel to it,not much of a plot ,apart from 'the chaotic events in the day of a shop clerk'.

    a cult classic ,up there with napoleon dynamite ,man bites dog and le hane.

    just like marmite though ,it may not be to everyones taste.

    Pineapple Express - BLU-RAY Version

    Smith's new success is down to Rogen's weed diet

    • 11 Oct 2009

    Filmmaker Kevin Smith has credited actor Seth Rogen - and a newfound love of marijuana - with pulling him out of a creative downturn. The Clerks director was uninspired and unsure where his career was headed until the Pineapple Express star talked him into smoking cannabis last summer (08). Now Smith lights up at least three times daily and is swamped with new projects, including a Batman comic and the release of upcoming movie A Pair Of Dicks, starring Bruce Willis. He tells the New York Post, Read more
