Clerk

It's strange for me to watch the movie because I already know Kevin Smith. I was aware of Fatman on Batman for a long time and really started watching Fatman Beyond religiously during the pandemic and believe me, he will not let you forget that he made Clerks.

If you think of yourself a movie geek you got to see Clerk, cause the movie is about an iconic filmmaker who does not see himself in that way, but unlike many others who also don't see themselves like that. Kevin more embraces it. He's geeking out on his own stuff and its only an advantage for us because it makes him sooooo open about telling us about his experience as a filmmaker, lessons any wannabe filmmaker should listen to cause its inspiring. He had a story to tell and all he was doing was telling that story and everything about Smith tells you that if he can do it, you can do it.

From his younger years as a filmmaker to his older years as a messiah of geek culture, Kevin smith tells a valuable lesson on how far being yourself can take you.

If you don't like Kevin, that's fine. But as far as I can see, I am seeing people who have nothing better to do... so what do they do? They 1 star amazing doc's like this. Why? Because they're bored and have nothing better to do and they like down-scoring movies.

That being said, the contribution to cinema that Kevin Smith has made, is more than significant. Maybe it wasn't your cup of tea, but most likely the people who write these reviews do not know what it takes to make a film. Kevin Smith does, the producers of this Documentary sure do, so don't listen to those people who have no idea what they are talking about. It's a great documentary. And if your an aspiring filmmaker, there is testimony from great indie filmmakers in this one and the praises they sing for Kevin Smith. So again, ignore the 1 stars, they're just pathetic, sad, angry little trolls.

I was looking forward to this documentary because I've very much enjoyed listening to Kevin Smith speak in the spoken word talks he's done. THE GUY CAN TALK !

But there is so very little of his great storytelling here - and I suppose if you really like his movies, you may enjoy learning more about him and listening to people talk about him - but I just found this so boring.

There is not much more I can say: I'd SO much prefer to listen to him speak and tell the entertaining stories that I've seen him tell - and they are much, much more fun to listen to than this drab, lifeless 'tribute' to the greatness of this man.

Not much else to add. I started to watch and then stopped 10 mins in realizing it's not a joke. It's just slowly boring. I don't like when they get you excited and then you get disappointed so much.

Another take on Kevin, the ONE TRICK PONY. Kevin wants to revisit his genius again. Lets watch in bored amazement as he does nothing, again.

The story of the brilliant guy who put on a cap backwards. Next comes another reboot of Mallrats, and a prequel, and a sequel to the prequel. Then re-issue all the dvds with dozens of hours of outtakes and funny bloopers.
