Whatever went wrong with Kevin Smith's 1995 film Mallrats has been fixed in Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. Now in 2001, Kevin Smith devotes ninety-five minutes of film to himself. Any negative reviews you may read are surely written... Read more at imdb.com

Kevin Smith's previous movies always seemed to be something of a mixed bag. Whether ambitious thematically, ("Dogma", "Chasing Amy"), or outright comedy, ("Mallrats"), the movies as a whole were less satisfactory than their many very funny parts. The sporadic appearances... Read more at imdb.com

Writer/director/co-star Kevin Smith bids farewell to the Jay and Silent Bob characters in "Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back," the first of the five movies featuring them in which they are the stars. He couldn't have come up with a... Read more at imdb.com
Whether or not you enjoy `Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back' is going to depend a lot on whether or not you enjoy director Kevin Smith. I, for one, think the guy is a genius. If you don't mind my... Read more at imdb.com
Kevin Smith proved with J.S.B.S.B. that he is no longer just a glorified independent film maker. In past films, Kevin Smith seemed to have a limited appeal, mostly among arm-chair directors (such as myself)who had become jaded with the Hollywood... Read more at imdb.com

For the record, I have not seen Kevin Smith's previous works, Clerks, Mallrats, Chasing Amy, or Dogma, which, I'm almost positive, affected how I saw the movie, since Smith puts in so many in-jokes and references to his previous movies,... Read more at imdb.com

When I was first asked by a friend to watch this DVD with her my initial reaction was that it's not for me. Stoner humour is not my normal genre, cheech and chong bored me, as did many other films... Read more at imdb.com

All I know is that "Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back" is hilarious. Jay and Bob unknowingly hitch a ride to Hollywood with a foursome of sexpot jewel thieves who plan to use them as fall guys for a diamond heist in Colorado. ... Full Review

Hollywood Report Card
Perhaps Kevin Smith set out to make a bad movie the film is quite respectable in a disrespectable " South Park " kind of way. Odd, quirky, sometimes silly, detours comprise two-thirds of the film. ... Full Review

Cinema Blend
Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back is poorly acted, poorly written Leaping from one flatly delivered scene to the next, Jay and Silent Bob cuts deep into the hearts of all the annoying internet trolls besmirching the name of movie lovers everywhere. ... Full Review

Reeling Reviews
Most have been cameo-like perfs where they (at least the irreverent motor mouth Jay) spew forth some off-beat opinions and philosophies. Back in 1989, Smith made his debut with his ode to slackers, the extra low budget film, "Clerks," where he introduced his now infamous characters Jay and Silent Bob. ... Full Review

Combustible Celluloid
So Jay and Bob begin to hitch to Hollywood to stop production of the movie and hopefully stop the internet slander in the process. Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back supplies tons of laughs through its first three-quarters, but like most movies of this type, the jokes and the climax of the movie tend to stumble over one another. ...
