Rating out of 4: ***
After two best friends, Brodie Bruce and TS Quint are dumped by their girlfriends, they go to the local mall to deal with their loss. Brodie is a comic book fanatic and an ally-day Sega player. His girlfriend Rene was mad at him for being such a slob all the time. TS' girlfriend Brandi broke up with TS because of her father.
Along the way, they meet up with a few friends, Jay and Silent Bob, Willam, Gwen, and Tricia. And TS and Brodie meet a couple of enemies, Shannon Hamilton, a slick businessman who likes to keep girls in "uncomfortable" places, and Mr. Svenning, Brandi's father. While they are there, they find out that a show is being film there in front of a live studio audience, they ask Jay and Silent Bob to destroy the set. Brodie and TS are there to seek refuge and find a way to get their girlfriends back.
A good Comedy if you ask me. There were some really funny moments, mostly all of the scenes with Brodie in it. He got most of the laughs.
Brodie is, without a doubt, my favorite character in the View Askew series, even though this movie ranks as number three in the series.
Watch this movie if you liked any other of the movies in this series. But, if you have not seen Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, see this first. There are some jokes you need to see in this in order to understand references to this movie. Watch this movie. It'll make you want to look for sailboats and eat chocolate covered pretzels.
