Jay and Silent Bob (Jason Mewes, Kevin Smith) are two drug dealers first seen in 'Clerks'. They find out that a comic book based on their lives are being made into a movie. After discovering the internet, they see that they are being ridiculed by trolls. Instead of wanting money, they set off to Hollywood to stop the movie. Then the duo hitch a ride with 4 hot girls (Shannon Elizabeth, Eliza Dushku, Ali Larter, Jennifer Schwalbach Smith). The story is a little random. There's a lot of funny inside jokes about Hollywood. It's cute but the childish jokes don't all work. It's cool to see all the Hollywood big names taking on their own previous work. This is definitely a movie for Kevin Smith fans only. At the heart of it is the friendship between Jay and Silent Bob. That part works quite well. However the production isn't as expertly made as Kevin Smith may want. There is a lot going on in this movie. He throwing every style and endless movie references at this.

This "movie" is about a couple of morons that for some obv reason (they're dumb; duh) start to take themselves too seriously, think that a movie (within) about them is being made without credit; and also they're being badmouthed on line; rightfully so, and simply decide to get even. A following roadtrip ensures. But that doesn't matter, because those guys aren't even interesting in their own sporadic appearances of their group of other movies; let alone this silly reply of a film. If they wanted to properly answer their detractors; they failed miserably, because now they've only confirmed that everything bad about them is indeed true. They are unfunny and can't act ass poop; but so all of the other people around. Especially the all star cameos showcased. They were gathered for nothing; because the direction, script and plot were so weak, that no-one could save this ridiculous mess; not even collectively. &BTW, they're fugly and metrogay too; but that won't matter to their minions. Smith even somehow managed to turn his "babes" into a turn off set of ugly vinyl silicon look alike trannies. Even the ape acted and looked better that everybody else put together in this P.O.S! People that actually paid to see this crapfest got ripped off. If you stayed to the end; then you simply got raped, and I feel sorry for you. I also felt sorry for the other "actors" that appeared in this POS; for about like 5 seconds. These characters simply cannot carry a movie. Hence please, do yourself a favor, and don't waste your time with this overrated trash. It's beyond me how this could even be loosely considered entertainment. I know this will get lost and sink to the bottomless pit of useless IMDb "reviews"; but I'm sick and tired of hearing that Smith's "a genius", that his movies are "good and funny", that "you don't get it", "what's wrong with you", "are you not normal?!", etc, etc, etc. The only thing I get is that he had this coming, and that he's a talentless hack whose only real talent is to hoax other stupid people into thinking he's a real and talented filmmaker; that's for sure. Nevertheless, I do admire him for that, alone. So bottomline: WORST MOVIE EVER MADE!!! So much in fact, that this is a perfect example of how NOT to make a movie. And finally, this sorry excuse of a film is also childish, amateurish, boring, lame, uninspired, insipid, unenjoyable, bland, and pure torture!

So here I am looking at a comedy that I liked when I was 13 and 14. I watched this movie all the time back then. So does it hold up after 4 years? In my eyes it doesn't.Don't get me wrong it is funny... in places. The leading characters are a big problem, why? they work as side characters for the movies but in here... It doesn't work. Jay has potential to be a funny side character but not as a lead. He is on the verge of irritating as he chews the scenery of this movie. I did laugh at a few jokes, don't get me wrong but for every 1 joke that works there are about 5 more that fall flat. When a joke falls flat in this movie it falls REALLY FLAT.Not to mention they overuse the F word. I know, I might come across as an idiot for complaining about bad language in a Kevin Smith movie and it might be as stupid as complaining about the use of Amber in a Guillermo Del Toro film. But it is used in EVERY SINGLE SENTENCE. This might entertain a 14 year old for an hour and a half but not to a 17 year old looking for something more.Not to mention the plot is just awful. I get what Smith was trying to do with this movie. Basically a stupid comedy with a ridiculous premise. First of all the premise is sort of a "boo-hoo" situation (trying to stop a movie because of haters? Really?). Not to mention that It almost is like he ran out of material and crammed in subplots and love relationships that are more forced than Hayden Christensen's and Natalie Portman's in the Star Wars prequels. The plots are just NOT FUNNY.So will I give Kevin Smith films a re-watch? Yes. I considered this man to be my favourite comedy director when I was 13 and want to see out of curiosity if any of his other films hold up. One of my biggest problems with this movie is the fact that the focus of the film should be supporting characters and doing that might actually work if you change it to a character that can entertain people who AREN'T fourteen years old.

Jay and Silent Bob have to trek across country to stop a movie from being made , based on their likenesses. after being kicked off of their block where they hang out at the corner store, they run into someone they know and they tell our heroes about a movie being made , and it turns out it's about them, they get advice from George Carlin and many other,, they get involved with sexy girls,, stealing a monkey,, and many other misadventures along the way including a showdown, with Ben Affleck and Matt Damon,, this is one of the funnier movies that I have seen in the past 20 years,, lot's of crude sexual humor, and sight gags,, lot's of references to other movies that have been made recently. if you're looking for a great funny "road trip" movie, than this is definitely worth watching,, and by the way Shannon Doherty is great in this movie as well.
