More details about the Clerks films

The first Clerks film was released in 1994 to positive reviews from critics. It's the first film of Kevin Smith's View Askewniverse series.

Clerks focuses on a day in the lives of two New Jersey store clerks, Dante Hicks and Randal Graves, played by Brian O'Halloran and Jeff Anderson. The official synopsis of the film on Rotten Tomatoes reads:

''Dante (Brian O'Halloran) is called in to cover a shift at his New Jersey convenience store on his day off. His friend Randal (Jeff Anderson) helps him pass the time, neglecting his video-store customers next door to hang out in the Quick Stop. The uneventful day is disrupted by news that one of Dante's ex-girlfriends has died. After attending her memorial service, Dante muses over staying with current girlfriend Veronica (Marilyn Ghigliotti) or reuniting with ex Caitlin (Lisa Spoonhauer).''

The film was a massive commercial success as well, and spawned a sequel, titled Clerks II, which was released in 2006. O'Halloran and Anderson reprised their roles as Dante and Randal, respectively. The sequel had a different visual tone as it was shot in black-and-white.

Like the original film, Clerks II received widespread critical acclaim and was also commercially successful. More than a decade after the release of the sequel, the third installment in the series is now all set to release in September this year.
