this is one of the funniest movies of all-time, period. Brody is the man!

This movie changed my life. I love everything about it. Jason Lee alone was worth the 10. I love every line he says, and he does it so well. Overall i think it's Smith's best movie, but I guess i'm biased cause this reminded me of my life and friends. Anyway if you liked Clerks or Dogma I do think you'll like this.

Classic movie. Very underrated Kevin Smith film.
Jon H gave it a0:
Kevin Smith's worst film, even worse the jersey girl, it's hard to believe he did it.
Michael M. gave it a 7:
Alot of people didn't like this movie. They thought it was stupid, and average at best. But, personally, I thought it was really good. I mean, it isn't the best Kevin Smith movie ever made, but definetly not the worst. I laughed so much through the movie, my eyes started watering! It was some funny stuff. I say the highlights of the movie are Jason Lee's absolutley hysterical performance as Brody and Jason Mewes and Kevin Smith as Jay and Silent Bob (one of the funniest duo's ever made). This film really isn't for people searching for a dignified plot, because it really doesn't have one. It is pretty much about two friends, T.S. (Jeremy London) and Brody (Jason Lee), who hang out at the mall during the course of one day, after being dumped by their girlfriends. There they try to win back their girlfriends. Brody tries to keep his girlfriend, Rene (Shannen Doherty) from being made love to in "a very uncomfortable place" by her new boyfriend (Ben Affleck) who is the manager of a classy clothing store. T.S. tries to win back his girlfriend, Brandi (Claire Forlani) because her father (Michael Rooker) made her leave him, by destroying her father's live t.v. reality show, where Brandi must choose a mystery man to date. The film has interesting and very comical dialogue and is a very fun movie by me. I would recommend this movie to any Kevin Smith fans, or anybody just looking for a funny, silly and sick comedy to watch. (2/17/03)

Kevin Smith rocks, but this one is his worst movie. Check out his others instead.
