What's Otter's
rating system?
OK, you have to know right up front that Mr. Otter and I are serious Jay and Silent Bob fans...loved Dogma (and who didn't?), thought Chasing Amy was thoughtful and intelligent, and laughed hysterically at Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back and Mallrats (ok, I laughed hysterically, Mr. Otter maintained a dignified silence, mostly, but still enjoyed them). So I finally got to see the first of these mini-masterpieces...and it was great!

One day in the lives of two convenience store clerks, with a lot of kinda wierd stuff happening. Jay and Silent Bob are the pushers that hang out in front of the store, with a few good bits to do, and the two main characters are wonderful, losers who at the same time are Everyman...and incredibly funny, as well.

Do yourself a favor, the next time your brain decides it wants something out of the ordinary, get a Kevin Smith movie; your brain (and your funny bone) will thank you.
