    When Dante Hicks (Brian O'Halloran) is reluctantly put in charge of the Quick Stop market on his day off, he tries, though half-heartedly, to perform his minimum-wage duties as efficiently as possible. This gets tough amidst the on-going fight with his girlfriend, Veronica (Marilyn Ghigliotti), and his attempt to get back together with his ex-girlfriend, Caitlyn Bree (Lisa Spoonhauer). Meanwhile, his friend and alter ego Randall (Jeff Anderson) is working behind the counter of the adjacent video store -- at least when he feels like it. Randall's unabashed disdain of his place of employment, a long with his self-admitted hatred towards its customers is a sharp contrast to Dante's feeble attempts at the niceties of customer service. Much of the film consists of Randall and Dante's criticism of their customers, their lives, and the world in general. Clerks, filmed in black-and-white on a budget of only $27,000, began the career of writer director Kevin Smith, who would go on to make Mallrats (1995), Chasing Amy (1997), Dogma (1999), and Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back (2001).

    CLERKS - The first and still the best of Kevin Smith's works...by Kryssey

    March 03, 2009: This movie started it all for Kevin Smith! Three key points for why this movie is worth watching (the cleaned version - digitally remastered the picture and sound in this version): 1.) THE SCRIPT - The dialog between the characters is what made this closet success a HUGE success! 2.) FUNNY - Off the wall and out of the park SLAP STICK humor! Smith did the unthinkable and made it one of the best comedies ever made! 3.) INTELLECTUAL STIMULATION - This movie is certainly NOT a action movie. But if you like intellectual dialog, this movie is for you! This movie helps relate to your old friends and dead-end jobs; and things you did to entertain yourself to get through a difficult "No-brainer" shift. Though, I never had intellectual conversations to the magnitude in my late teens; early twenties...I can still relate to their dialog. This movie goes from one extreme to another. And I cannot help but to agree with Kevin Smith's portrayal of the classic dumb consumer; people even I looked down on daily at my dead-end jobs. It did help you feel some what superior to the average consumer. A MUST OWN movie. Also, with the special edition, there are some great extra's in the special features that are worth owning. I LOVE THE FLYING CAR conversation. Trust me...it's worth it!
