View Askew's Look Back at 'Mallrats' (1999)
*** (out of 4)
Kevin Smith, Jason Lee, Ben Affleck, Jason Mewes and Scott Mosier are among the cast and crew who are interviewed as they look back on the making of MALLRATS. This DVD featurette was produced a couple years after the film's release so at this point the movie was still a "flop" so it's interesting getting to hear from people at this stage since it was still several years away from building its cult following. The most fascinating moments deal with Smith battling the studio to get Mewes into the film and of course the "flop" the film became is also discussed. This also includes Smith discussing when he knew the film was in trouble. If you're a fan of the picture then you'll obviously love getting to hear from most of the main people as they discuss various aspects of the production.
