Mallrats






Mallrats - Written, Directed and Starring Kevin Smith aka Silent Bob. This was only his second movie, his first being the balck and white comedy Clerks, although we can already see the makings of a great director. His next was, Chasing Amy about a straight male with a homosexual partner who has the hots for him who falls in love with a bisexual female, was even more well recieved by critics and audiecnes alike.


Kevin Smiths fourth film, starring Matt Damon, is Dogma. Its currently in the editing stage and should be released by the end of the year. Even though Kevin Smiths film credits number only three he is quickly becoming one of Hollywoods bigger properties. He is also currently slated to write DC's Green Arrow.


Plot Summary

T.S. and Brodie are two suburban high-school friends, both of whom are dumped by their respective girlfriends on the same day. They then go to the local mall to commiserate and hang out, as they often do. Meeting up with punk troublemakers Jay and Silent Bob (played by director Kevin Smith), they collectively hatch a plan to wreak mall havoc and win their loves back. Smith's film is filled with sophomoric and scatological humor, hip 'alternative' music, and pop cultural icons ranging from video games and film (Star Wars and Batman) to comics (including Stan 'The Man' Lee, as himself).

  • Silent Bob: Excitement, adventure... A Jedi craves not these things.
