Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back is a tale of adventure on the open road. When Dante and Randal (of Clerks fame) get a restraining order to keep the punchy Jay and his hetero life-mate, Silent Bob, from selling drugs in front of the Quick Stop convenience store, their lives are suddenly empty. They find new purpose when their friend, Brodie, informs them a movie is being made featuring two infamous characters based on their likenesses. After visiting one of the creators of the Bluntman and Chronic, Holden McNeil, they set out to get what fat movie cash they deserve and hopefully put an end to people slandering them on the Internet. Along the way, they learn the rules of the road from a hitchhiking George Carlin, ride with a group of gorgeous jewel thieves, and incur the wrath of a hapless wildlife marshal for liberating an orangutan named Suzanne. The quest takes them from New Jersey to Hollywood where a showdown involving the police, the jewel thieves, and the Bluntman and Chronic filmmakers will decide the fate of Suzanne, Jay, Silent Bob, and their good names.

| Matinee MagazineJeremiah KippWhile this is sure to amuse die-hard Smith fans, anyone else may either be hopelessly lost by the in-jokes or frustrated by the lack of screen time afforded the expansive supporting cast. |
| Salt Lake TribuneSean P. MeansSmith's script is the funniest of this dimbulb summer, and the sharpest he has ever written. |
| Los Angeles Daily NewsGlenn WhippAn exercise in idiocy, made all the more tedious by its recognition of its own laziness. |
