Go see it ****(Four Stars)
If you liked the original Clerks, then you will love this movie.   It continues with the adventures of Dante (Brian O'Halloran) and Randall (Jeff Anderson), only now they are in their 30's and this becomes a coming of age film for Gen-X Slackers.  When they have to face the reality that its time to Shit or Get off the pot -- Essentially its time to grow up.

This movie is definitely geared to a more slacker type of audience, or Star Wars - Lord of the Rings - Transformers kind of audience.   Especially with the character Elias who is a super religious and extremely naive guy who ends up being the brunt of many many jokes and pranks.   My favorite line in the whole movie is when Elias is telling Randall the reason he and his girlfriend have never had sex is because she has a little troll that lives in her pussy called Princess Pillow Pants. The Princess lives in her vagina until she is 21 and will bite his penis off if he has sex with her before then. 

There are several bit part cameos in this film played by big name actors like Wanda Sykes , Ben Affleck, Kevin Weisman, and Jason Lee.  They are done in a tasteful way where you are not pulled from the movie, you accept them for their brief moment in time and for the humor they are able to add. 
I have to say that my favorite character in this film was the Manager Becky (Rosario Dawson) she made the whole movie for me.   She was beautiful and smart, and tender and she was so in love with Dante and struggled with her emotions as she watched him and his fiancé.

Do not bring your children or Parents to see this movie with you -- Not only is it full of Obscene language, but there is some unique and very uncomfortable sexual perversion.
