Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back (2001)
It's time to put this series to rest.
To my great disappointment, this film fell far short of what I had hoped for. While I can see glimpses of an imaginative plot line, so much of this film fell into cliches- and didn't portray them well enough to really pass muster as a credible parody. The dialogue driven model we come to expect from a Kevin Smith film is pushed aside in favor of sight gags and bodily humor jokes. One has to expect some of this given the title characters, but are there any intelligent or well developed characters in this film? Additionally, the running preoccupation with gay "humor" is not funny, nor is it clear that we are supposed to think less of these characters for their remarks. The large number of cameos and a yearning for closure make this worth watching at some point, but it's sad to see NJ's best come to such an unfitting end.
Moll Flanders (1996)
A well-acted epic drama
Moll Flanders brings back storytelling in a compelling way. The cast perfectly portrays the characters, resulting in a film that will keep you enthralled until the very last minute. A perfect movie for anyone who believes in destiny.
