51 - "Clerks III"

Published: Nov. 4, 2022, 8:37 a.m.

"Clerks III" concludes the "Clerks" trilogy that Kevin Smith has created. This film is probably the most emotional of the three. Not the most powerful, it almost feels like mockumentary of sorts but Smith did a good job choosing which scenes are worthy enough to "re-enact" but in Randal's vision. And I like it a lot. The dialog is sharp and Elias is great practicing Satanism and dressing up what he thinks is what a Satanist would be like. It's everything. This film does carry the narrative of life/working and keeping your loved ones near. There's a slight twist in the plot that I think did well as far as how it pushed the overall story. Good writing, acting is strong and how past films add to the emotion of the characters going through what they do.
