An Evening With Kevin Smith 2: Evening Harder (2006)

Kevin Smith
Jason Mewes

Directed by J.M. Kenny

Plot: Writer/director Kevin Smith is well known for his sincere devotion to his loyal fan base, and in this release, the man behind Clerks, Mallrats, and Dogma sets his sights on college campuses in London and Toronto in order to answer questions and offer a series of amusing anecdotes. Joining Smith on-stage is frequent collaborator Jason Mewes, who samples Canadian cuisine with the director and tries out a number of humorous pick-up lines on unsuspecting urbanites.

Review: Those that know me or that have read my reviews know that I love Kevin Smith. I know this isn’t really a movie, but it is considered a documentary, so I am going to review it anyway. I found the first Evening with Kevin Smith to be brilliant. Not because it was some groundbreaking film making, but because of the content. Evening Harder isn’t quite as good, but is still great. The only thing that really holds this film back is the fact that some of the same stories from the first film are retold, although not at the same length. This new entry into the Kevin Smith film is great. There are some great new stories as well as some updates on the out come from the previous films stories. This film was obviously filmed prior to Clerks 2 because there are some great lines he has that actually made it into the Clerks 2 film. If you like Kevin Smith or enjoyed Evening 1, then you will love this film.
