Jay and Silent Bob Reboot plays in theaters Oct. 15 and Oct. 17 via Fathom Events.
It’s been 25 years since Kevin Smith introduced audiences to hyperactive slackers Jay and Silent Bob in Clerks. They functioned as a vehicle for some of the movie’s raunchiest jokes, a function that’s remained largely the same in their subsequent appearances. The Askewniverse films have always been Smith’s most personal, so when news came that he was revisiting that world with Jay and Silent Bob Reboot, it seemed a little strange that he could just be using these characters to take potshots (heh) at the Hollywood machine. But Reboot ends up being a surprisingly heartfelt look at growing older and growing up… punctuated with a whole hell of a lot of dirty humor. Just don’t expect a reinvention of the wheel in the story department.
