Nowhere As Near As Iconic as the First

It really feels like Kevin Smith is reaching in this sequel. The jokes are cruder and less clever and the film has a more polished, "let's up the ante" feel. The black and white grittiness and simplicity of the first film is what made it sort of a transcendent slacker indie film and this movie, while still occasionally funny, misses all those notes.
