Clerks review

 

I don't think we'll get another movie like this ever again, either in the near future or for a long time. This is one of the best films ever made, with great writing by Kevin Smith, who is also known for his comic work on other series such as Daredevil, Green Arrow and the Green Hornet. I'm more into contemporary or classic stories (like fantasy, sci-fi, even the vigilante-superhero adventure stories) than the usual "slice-of-life" or "coming-of-age" story that I used to like a lot, but I would definitely be down for more movies of this caliber with funny and relatable characters and excellent writing. The story is not much, but it's competent, and you don't usually ask for much from a story like this where it involves ordinary people getting into some shenanigans or put into awkward situations. Some will get triggered or cringe over the use of derogatory words in this film, but I could care less because it's still a hilarious and fun film. Highly recommend it.
