Clerks II

Jodi and I met up with Chris again for a second Friday night out. We had such a good time at “Mexico” (at Pacific Place) last week that we decided to go back to the same place. We still have a couple of specialty martinis and margaritas on the menu to get through.

Afterward, we went to see Clerks II on its opening night. I had seen the original Clerks many, MANY moons ago (thanks Matt) and hadn’t found it to be a very funny nor interesting film (thanks again, Matt). So even though I have liked a number of the intervening Kevin Smith films, I had fairly low expectations for the Clerks sequel. This expectation was not helped by the nasty reviews it was receiving just prior to the opening.

So I stand corrected in my presumption by saying that I found Clerks II to be quite funny and worth seeing. Don’t go if you’re easily offended by Kevin Smith’s style of over-the-top sexual gags and innuendo or lots of cussing. But if you’ve seen other Kevin Smith movies and found them funny, this one is probably up in the top couple for humour.
