A cool geek tries to ask out the amazing girl Melody Barnigat, who he almost had a fling with last time. Now he decides to rehabilitate himself. Early in the morning, he arranges to go to the movies with her. However, for some reason on this day all circumstances play against him.
Actors: young talents picked up by Kevin Smith for the main roles. They are not famous yet, but they will soon become famous. Very interestingly played by Austin Azure.
Self-critical guy with a very peculiar nature, who looks athletic and more mature, but behaves childishly. People like him are the center of attention in girls. Toward the end, Nicholas Cirillo's character realizes how wrong he was.
Kevin Smith also found a place for regular actors: Jason Lee and Rosario Dawson played small roles, which were the cherry on the cake.
In my opinion, a real gift for one of the heroes was the appearance in his hometown idol Major Mochila. Sam Richardson's performance was decent! I really liked his prologue about the hero's high school past and what he accomplished by winning a career and the girl of his dreams.
There was a role for Harley Quinn Smith too, but again a small one - in a fake nun movie trailer (a parody of Sister Act!). That's the kind of movie I'd love to see. The director is afraid to cast his daughter in the lead role after 'Yoganuts'.
On the worse end of the geek culture world, I liked the controller. Adam Pally, familiar from his roles in 'Sonic at the Movies' and 'Knuckles', made a great impression!
References: this movie is full of 80's pop culture references. Mentions “Rocky 4” with a Russian Dolph Lundgren. Special thanks to Justin Long for his portrayal of a rustic, somewhat backward kid.
You can also spot the Predator bomb timer dial on the main character's t-shirt. I love it when they bring up Toob Hooper's 'Poltergeist' . I really do! So many interesting things have been discussed about it. The good thing about Smith's movie is that the action takes place in 1986, before Heather O'Rourke died. I feel sorry for her. God rest her soul. There were a lot of things said about Batman. Given that the mindset of teenagers in the 80's was exclusively fan-based, not everyone was in agreement that a Batman movie would turn out to be awesome. Thanks to Tim Burton for proving that it wasn't. I love John Boorman and his “Excalibur.” He also managed to point out the importance and non-importance of the post credits scenes. In short, Kevin Smith, as always, went wild and created a great movie with lots of pop culture references.
And of course! The favorite theme of almost all of Kevin Smith's movies is Star Wars. I liked the actor in the Knuckles series so much that I'm happy to answer: It was like he was looking into water, or rather, the future. In doing so, he exposed the underside of ST in a beautiful way, and it's repulsively beautiful.
Impressions: Kevin Smith did not miss the opportunity and desire to remember the old days when the audience could enter the movie theater through the back door. I truly understand him, as I was a “moviegoer” myself. I was also pleased with the episode with my mother's call to the movie theater - it gives me a sense of deja vu, something similar happened to me. In this moment, the director emphasizes how mothers (especially those feeling lonely) want to hear from their children the simple three words, “I love you.” But seriously, it's too much to distract kids from the movie experience.
