Goofs:
Errors in geography: After Jay and Silent Bob escape into the sewer pipe in Utah and make it to the end of the line at the dam, two things occur once they climb to the top: 1. There is no water on the other side (mountains can actually be seen), and 2. The background on the waterfall side of the dam is of the mountain face of Pyramid Lake, just north of Castaic, California, named for the way the cut out face looks like a pyramid. This would mean that the pipeline ran all the way from Utah to California and that they made it in the same day on foot.

Kevin Smith's previous movies always seemed to be something of a mixed bag. Whether ambitious thematically, ("Dogma", "Chasing Amy"), or outright comedy, ("Mallrats"), the movies as a whole were less satisfactory than their many very funny parts. The sporadic appearances of the second string character duo of Jay and Silent Bob were always a welcome event.
The big question was whether this 2001 styled Laurel and Hardy, when promoted to center stage, could carry a movie. The answer much to my surprise was a resounding yes. Smith outdoes himself, producing an exceptional comedy. It's consistently inventive, with surprises, in jokes and many cameos from Smith regulars, all who seem to be genuinely having a ball. Never has irreverence and bad language been done with so much charm.
Those who disliked Smith's previous works would do well to stay away, they are unlikely to be converted. But for fans, Smith really does deliver the goods, in a big way.
I was totally baffled by reading that certain gay groups took offence to this movie. It would seem to me a total misreading as well as a great deficiency in the humor department. Apart from the fact that Smith lampoons all and sundry, it actually struck me as a particularly gay friendly movie. The fact that a gay character sums the movie up as one big gay joke should be taken as a compliment more than anything else.
It's clear that this brings Smith's cycle to a close. He couldn't have wished for a better ending.
