I think it's the best Kevin Smith movie to date. It balanced the humor and drama perfectly, without either weakening the other. I think this might also be the best use of Jay and Bob today. I didn't realize how increasingly riddiculous they'd become in the other Askew-niverse flicks until I saw them reined into to a more reasonable level of ignorance.
Chasing Amy is more emotional, Dogma is more heady, and the original Clerks is more raw. But this was by far the smoothest ride, the one where Kevin Smith felt the most sure as a director. Having Klein's stripped down D.P. work back really helped imbue it with the feel of the first three flicks, too.
