Clerks

Rating: 4/4 Stars. Without a doubt we have to admit that with a rock bottom budget of $27k, director and actor Kevin Smith did a very well-done and smooth job with Clerks. The film stars Brian O'Halloran who plays crabby and up-tight Dante Hicks working at Quick Stop Convenience, and Jeff Anderson as careless Randal Graves working at RST Video. Dante (Halloran) must go into work at around 5:30am and stay till noon. He opens the store with a number of misadventures happens. If it's a anti-smoking group lobbing cigarettes at Dante to tipping a casket over at a wake, you can guarantee Dante will be involved. Dante also struggles with his previous girlfriend Caitlin (Lisa Spoonhauer) and a share of hassles with his current girlfriend (Marlyin Ghigliotti). One wants him in his life forever the other wants him to go to College to "get direction".Along with his friend Randal (Anderson) an obnoxious teenager who works next door to Dante at RST Video. He is no more than a pain persuading Dante to "rip in and bug the customer". The great thing about Clerks is that is digs into the "minimum wage" job in life. Instead of the occasional mob-boss, police man, etc we see the behind the counter life. Here we see a man who has to go in at the crack of dawn and stay there to closing. Clerks is a hilarious movie with incredible dialouge which makes it my all-time favorite movie, and easily the funniest comedy I've seen. With an incredible rock soundtrack with Alice in Chains, Soul Aslyum, and more. There really is noting to hate about Clerks.
