While it doesn't have a strong message like Smith's other films, it manages to be entertaining thanks to the sheer presence of its titular duo.

Kevin Smith runs rampant and sheds any pretence of doing anything but indulging his own nerdish fetishes and love of nob jokes. If you don't share his sense of humour you won't crack a smile, but if you do it's best watched with a few like-minded friends and a case of beer.

There's a lot going on in this manic adventure - a lot of visual jokes and cameos - but it's missing the same wit and smartness that Smith's earlier films had. The film still has some funny parts, for sure, but it's not nearly as intricate or satisfying as the early films of the Smith canon.

It comprises of a lot of cameos such as Wes Craven, Mark Hamill, Chris Rock and more. Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back is a descent comedy …

Jay and Silent Bob... no need to say more.

This was the movie that I was waiting for! I had to hit this movie at the midnight showing at my local theater because I, much like the rest of the Kevin Smith fan community, had been waiting years for Jay and Silent Bob to get their own movie. Talk about an allstar line up for a cast! Kevin Smith and Jason Mewes have created the one of the most notorious combinations in a very short amount of time as Jay and Silent Bob. Nearly every character that Kevin Smith has had in his previous films (with the exception of a few that he just couldn't tolerate to work with ever again) made an appearance in this movie, some of which had multiple appearances.
Jason Lee playing both Brodie (now running comic book store after retiring from hosting the Tonight Show) and Banky (The inker on the Bluntman …
