Kevin Smith
With Valentine’s Day around the corner, Coby Kiefert is here to give you a list of the ten best films for this holiday season.
Kevin Smith’s star-studded 1999 religious slacker comedy “Dogma” is both one of the worst movies ever made and also one of the best.
Clerks III may not have the best laughs of the trilogy but certainly has the most heart amid its sentimental nostalgia.
Dante, Elias, and Jay and Silent Bob are enlisted by Randal after a heart attack to make a movie about the convenience store that started it all.
Max Reload And The Nether Blasters attempts to bring back that 80s nostalgia with a modern-day feel.
Jay and Silent Bob Reboot, is a heartfelt, thoughtful film that takes a clever jab at Hollywood’s dwindling originality, while maintaining its own level of originality.
The independent film movement of the 1990’s allowed for a range of young, hungry filmmakers to move to a forefront which many directors nary got a chance to experience in the past. Yearning for voices which were “out of the box” in story, dialogue and acting, these indie flicks began to span beyond just arthouse cinema. Creatives didn’t always have to rely on big studio backing to get their projects off the ground.
What do Fleetwood Mac, surgical mutilation and a delightfully chubby Haley Joel Osment have in common? Along with a recurring erotic nightmare of mine, Kevin Smith’s new film Tusk. Based on an episode of Smith’s long-running “SModcast,” Tusk tells the story of podcaster Wallace Bryton (Justin Long) who embarks into Manitoba on a quest for new material.
What piques my interest for this upcoming film is the writer and director, Kevin Smith. I’ve seen Clerks II and Mallrats, as well as watching some episodes of Comic Book Men and an interview or two. I have to say, I like the guy.
