Teaser
Kevin Smith, writer and director of cult film favorites in his
Askewniverse series ("Clerks", "Mallrats", "Chasing Amy", "Dogma", and
"Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back"), is a witty man with a lot of advice
and anecdotes to tell. Smith makes quite a few speaking appearances at
colleges and universities around the country, for the most part
answering questions about his films and life. This DVD set contains
3-1/2 hours of material assemble together from several of his speaking
appearances.

Comments
Kevin Smith's movies are for the most part at least ok. But what sets
the DVDs apart is the awesome commentary by Smith. "An Evening With
Kevin Smith" is him just talking about things. Smith is funny and witty
and you learn a lot about his various films and his life. I love
hearing people talk about themselves, as long as they're good speakers.
Kevin Smith is a very good speaker.
DVD
This is a two-disc set with no extra features. But really, a commentary
track on top of what is essentially a commentary feature would be
pointless.
Recommendations
Highly recommended. If you like any of his movies, especially the
dialogue, or if you've heard and like the movie commentaries, then this
DVD is definitely for you. It will also be interesting for people who
want to know more about the movie industry, especially independent film
making. |
