Review of Clerks III (2022) by Loucetios — 14 Oct 2022

Really wanted this to go well for them but it's unwatchable. The pace is slow while the jokes simply aren't funny. Kevin Smith existed in a time when it was cool to make non-PC jokes and young people were first learning the joy of working **** jobs. That time is over, so innately this movie doesn't work. I don't think I laughed once as much as I hate to say it. It's nice that the most hardcore fans got some kind of wrap up but in reality, this didn't need to happen. Bunch of aging guys in their 40s trying to crack the safest dick/sex jokes possible. Long gone are the days of debating the term "porch monkey". This movie is like when your dad gets up and tries to behave like a rockstar but everyone kind of just rolls their eyes.

It's also just very boring as an idea. A movie where Jay and Silent Bob need to get some kind of life saving blunt to Snoop Dogg but they have to travel across America with Kevin Hart would be an idea. This story as a movie never really comes together into a cohesive idea about anything. They want to make a movie, they make clerks, the end. The stuff in between is very unnecessary honestly.

Look man take a page out of your own book, go back to comedy. Everyone laughs there ass off at /r/childrenfalling over because everyone understands a pie in the face. I haven't watched a decent stoner movie in decades.
