Clerks II(2006 - Kevin Smith
I'm not one to write a long movie review, so I'll keep this short. Clerks II opens up 10 years after the original, in black and white, with a 33 year old Dante Hicks (Brian O'Halloran) opening up the good ol' Quick Stop, where he's been working for the past ten years, only to find that it is on fire. Suddenly, the world gets a little color. Dante and his longtime friend Randal Graves (Jeff Anderson) find out they finally have to get new jobs, so they go to Mooby's, a McDonalds-esque fast food joint seen in other Kevin Smith movies. There, they meet their boss Becky (Rosario Dawson) and a 19 year-old Lord of the Rings and Transformers fan named Elias (Trevor Fehrman). As the movie progresses, Dante and Randal finally "grow up" and try to do something with their lives. Hilarity ensues. As usual, Jay (Jason Mewes) and Silent Bob (Kevin Smith) make their appearances in this movie.
Chock full of racial tension, messing with food, Hellen Keller, Anne Frank, and the usual cameos from Ben Affleck and Jason Lee, Clerks II proves to be a good sequel to the beloved Clerks of 12 years ago. There are some parts in the movie that are supposed to be funny, but really aren't, but most of it had the audience laughing
Overall, I would rate the movie as good, but not as good as the first Clerks.
