    Divertido e engraçado. Prende o espectador atà (C) o fim, e apesar de 225 minutos, faz a pessoa querer mais. Obrigatório!!!

    Kevin Smith has such an uncommon gift in the realms of story telling and situational comedy that he can make even a nearly four hour Q and A session seemingly fly by. If your a Smith fan this is comedic gold. Even if your not a fan you may find a lot to like here.

    There are a few funny stories, but most of the time spent watching this movie is wasted on watching people applaud and Smith jokingly ask college students to blow him. He's charming, but even after watching him for about four hours, I don't feel like I know him any better than I... read more did before. That said, I will never forget the story about Mewes blowing anything phallic in a rec center.

    Kevin Smith for the efew that don't know is famous for his Jersey series and widely known as Silent Bob, takes the podium at colleges around the country and we are treated to stories from his time within the industry, from his involvement in the latest 'Superman' installment to h... read moreis experiences on set for his own flicks. I can honestly say that, throughout the long running time, not once did I find myself looking at the clock in boredom. As can be seen with such movies as 'Clerks.', 'Dogma', etc., Kevin Smith has a knack for story-telling.

    Smith is hilarious and has more than enough to talk about. I have been a fan of his since I seen Clerks during its theatrical run. If you've ever wanted to insight into the mind of Smith, this is the movie for it. He shares stories from the set, explains his views on religion and sexuality, and keeps it consistently entertaining.

    As an added bonus, Jason Mewes makes an appearance for one of the sessions, and while he doesn't add much to the conversation, it's cool to see the pair of them together. Smith's interactions with the audience, and a couple hilarious phone calls, make the long running time worth it. All serious fans of Kevin Smith must make a point to watch this at least once.

    If you are a Kevin Smith fan then you MUST see this DVD. It is a series of lectures that he gives at various campuses, but it stands as two of the funniest DVDs I have ever rented. They parallel and sometimes even surpass some of the humor and heart in many of his movies. He disc... read moreusses more than just Clerks, Chasing Amy, Mallrats, Dogma, etc...(very interesting portion though re: the church's reaction to "Dogma" and how Clerks got made), he talks about the world he lives in and how he sees it. Ever true to his Jersey roots and own sensibilities there are times this brilliant man will have you in tears of laughter. Wait until you hear about his encounter with Prince. OY! There is even a cameo with Jason Mewes for all you ?Can?t get enough of Jay and Silent Bob people out there.? Enjoy Kevin Smith fans, Enjoy...this one's for you.

    This is just Kevin answering questions and telling tales in front of college audiences, and it's a lot of fun. We learn all the behind-the-scenes stories about how all the movies got made, how he and Mewes hooked up and how he was nearly maimed for life after first-time sex with ... read morehis now-wife. It's over four hours long, but well worth the time.

    As is clear from his films, Kevin Smith is sharp, witty, funny, and insightful, so if you're a fan of him at all, you should definitely check this out - it's a sort of "best of" of Q&A sessions Smith did at various universities. It's very entertaining, but you'd definitely have t... read moreo be a fan of the dude to enjoy it - so if you're one of those people, check it out.

    Excellent. Funny as all get out and it never lets up.

    Silent Bob speaks!

    Watching Silent Bob in the movies is fun, especially when he puts off the facial expressions and shares some words of wisdom. With this, Kevin Smith shares his words of wisdom around different college campuses. It plays almost like a stand up concert, because,... read more despite it being a Q & A, he shares stories with his audience and they are very funny and well spoken. A lot of fun to watch, and easy just to watch in parts at a time.

He may not be able to direct very well but he can tell a great story.

Com a experiência de um autêntico mineiro, posso dizer que, sem a menor sombra de dúvidas, Kevin Smith é um excelente contador de 'causos'.
