Clerks II is a marvel of a film and really speaks to generation X in much the same way that Fight Club does, two sides of the same coin really. If you haven't seen Jersey Girl, I'd recommend it. Definitely not the man's finest hour, but gets a bad wrap. Way better than Dogma. <BR/><BR/>Zack and Miri is everything a good film should be: vastly entertaining and with a strong point of view. Smith tens to skew a little too far into entertainment, forgetting to speak to his audience. But it's very forgivable, and usually preferable to the other evil. Otherwise you end up with something like Crash or Forest Gump.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13130673064037710756noreply@blogger.com
