It's not that it's "bad acting" it just doesn't make any effort to be Academy Award acting. It's tone is subtly comedic with how straightforward and constantly sarcastic it is. The "badness" is on purpose and works perfectly.
Actually it's _criminally OVERrated._ The general consensus among both critics and general moviegoers is that Kevin Smith wasn't even trying when he did _Mallrats._ And it's very easy to see why. Other than a few select scenes this film is a real stinker.

That's crazy I have a story JUST LIKE THAT. In 2007 i was doing mushrooms with my girlfriend at the time watching SpongeBob and it was making us geek hard. She worked at Pizza hut right behind their house and brought some over for dinner. My brother came in and noticed and he started popping his head up from under the bed messing with us. Then my parents made us come down to eat pizza with them. My mom and step dad both work for the police department. My stepdad was swat then a homicide detective. We couldn't stop laughing at my step dad cause he looks like Sam Neill from Jurassic Park and he kept making jokes thinking we were laughing at that. Just brought me back to that.
It because of the home vidoe market Studios could take a chance on movies like this. It could bomb theaters but become a cult classic on vhs that just doesn’t happen anymore.
Malrats problem when it was released was it feels more like a movie done by an ensemble group that's been together for years and dozens of movies. But they weren't. This was Jason Lee's first movie with the bunch and a lot of people's first time with KS too. If this had come out after Chasing Amy, it would have gotten the praise it deserves. Watching it today as a cult classic, it rocks.
+Dreijer Yeahh the dude is amazing, I met him once and I told him I'll shake his left hand instead (Can't appreciate that unless you've seen the movie)
There’s certainly a familiarity amongst the characters that would indicate a well-wrought prior history to the events within the film. I don’t think that was Mallrats’s issue, since plenty of films and works of fiction begin ‘en media res’ with a fully formed backstory that the audience is familiarized with over its course. Mallrats was derided mainly because the writing and acting was fairly bland across the board, with too much limp, juvenile comedy to lend it any credibility. It was like a lame caricature of the same subculture that Clerks captured with far more authenticity and comic ingenuity. Had Kevin Smith fleshed out the script a bit more, the final product could’ve been more impressive. That said, outside of the distinct sensibilities of Kevin Smiths filmmaking, its little more than just a teen/young adult hijinks feature for the ‘90s. Any given episode of Beavis and Butthead had far more comic value and social commentary than Mallrats. That said, I still like the film. It’s an effective counterpoint to other contemporaneous films of its kind, such as Clueless.
This 3 minutes is some of the greatest writing in comedy. This scene is just perfect. The metal, the pop culture, the fast and wity dialogue, and the way J holds SB like his girlfriend as they walk away. Perfect.
+Alex Harvey Kevin Smith said he based the character Jay on how Jason used to act before he went to film school in Canada. After Clerks, he simply over exaggerated Jay's character.
Jason Mewes have said many times that the character Jay IS him when he was young. It's pretty much not acting at all on his part. He just did his thing.
It was the 90s so to the people it was like "what's so special about this? Me and my friends do this all the time" Now ppl like me born in the 90s look at this and wish we could've did the things they did, I mean who hangs at the mall nowadays? There's nothing to do unless you plan on spending money
we all shouldn't have to have things watered down censored etc. on either side because it's not pc or it’s kinda pc just because some things in these films are dated don’t make them not enjoyable other wise. kevin smith has a daughter and calling him these things isn't right. wither it's a movie video game music etc.
James Machuga you're full of shit! Clerks is a good written funny movie,this isn't. Kevin smith loves to make movies to entertain bullies like you just like Adam Sandler likes to make movies targeted towards unintelligent simpleton morons. The only good movies in the view Askewniverse movies clerks and Chasing Amy but I haven't seen dogma and I haven't seen Ghostbusters 2017.
i'm not a bully i just don't like people who blindly like a movie or hate a movie without giving a chance or nitpicking one thing and what’s wrong with like some goofy or dumb or shut your brain off movies not everything has to be thought provoking etc. if that were the case we would have tons of fast and the furious movies.
James Machuga if your assuming that I'm easily offended or sensitive by the crude and sexual content in this film and the filthy language in this movie I'm not,I enjoy it just as much as other people like you film. I just don't like the ending message of this film.
I think a lot of it is because most people have known someone like him in real life. Whether you find him funny or annoying, there's a weird charm to the character.
@@Funnydego nothing in particular, or that can translated to a single word or phrase. It's moreso utilized as a greeting and/or an exclamation of joy or success.
This kind of stuff was common in malls. Always a couple bad apples who try to sabatoge every event. I once dropped a crap load of push pins off the second floor onto the 10k balloon art display in 1993. It was glorious. 😂🤣
This takes me back to the 90s..Hell, we all used to hang out at the mall after school, either working or socializing. You could count on running into at least a dozen people from high school any given day.
I think Mallrats is Jay and Silent Bob’s second film, View Askew’s second film (part of the View Askewniverse) and production company Alphaville’s first film before The Jackal (1997) and The Mummy (1999)
