A day in the life of a cashier in a small supermarket, the film is full of malicious salesmen, eccentric drug dealers, and neurotic customers, and our three protagonists, one is a good-natured man with no opinion, and the other is a brain that seems to be lacking. Talking about friends, and a bit silly and a bit mean girlfriend. One look at these characters and you know you're not far from a cult, plus that kind of storytelling that isn't limited by transitions and timelines, makes the whole movie look handsome.
But I found that the reason why this film is regarded as a classic is at the end of the film, Randal's words. Originally, I thought this eldest brother had little brains, but the last paragraph really makes sense, and it does match the eldest brother's style of doing things. I heard that Kevin Smith originally wanted to play this role himself, no wonder he left the finishing touches to his words. Randal.
In Randal and Dante, I seem to see two selves, one is my own self, and the other is a timid self. Maybe you can never really keep one, eliminate one, you can only constantly find a balance between the two. Although tired, you still have to work hard to live a better life.
It is said that the jokes in this film are really exposed, but they are full of aftertastes, especially what the female police officer said at the end, which made people laugh to death. But the point is, are these two things really true from a scientific point of view? I doubt it!
