Kevin Smith made three Clerks movies across three decades, and the sequels didn't always manage to live up to the original indie masterpiece.
The Clerks saga holds up as a great trilogy, but some of its movies are better than others. Across three decades, Kevin Smith made three Clerks movies. He kickstarted his filmmaking career with the indie original, released in 1994, then revisited the fan-favorite characters in 2006's Clerks II before concluding their story in 2022 with Clerks III. From beginning to end, the heart of the trilogy is the endearing friendship shared by Dante Hicks and Randal Graves .
Clerks III received more positive reviews than most of Smith’s later efforts, but the reception was still mixed, with a 62% Rotten Tomatoes score and a 6.3 IMDb rating. Shooting the first Clerks movie within the third Clerks movie was a wonderfully meta way to bring the trilogy full circle, but it took away from the relatable charm of the first two. Their appeal was reflecting everyday life; Clerks III lost that element.
2 Clerks II Like the first movie, Clerks II revolves around a day in the lives of Dante and Randal. Since the Quick Stop has burned down, they’re working at Mooby’s, a fast food chain previously seen in Dogma and Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. But they’re a decade older and contend with a boatload of new issues. They’re no longer the carefree youths they were in the original. Now, as they approach middle-age, they have to figure out what they’re going to do with their lives.
