Kevin Smith goes to Toronto. He praises Canada (but he's not pandering). He talks about Tim Horton, his family, a lot of dick jokes, throwing an election, revisiting Prince, Gibson's Passion of Christ and whatever off the top of his head. He supports Affleck who was getting bashed at the time. Jason Mewes does Half, Half, Whole which brings the place down.In London, he's in a more intimate space. He starts off railing against some bad press from The 3M Girls after Jersey Girl. There is less drug humor and a little hesitation with the language differences. It's more hit and miss compared to Toronto. The crowd is older and not the college crowd that he gets back in America. The Toronto show is very much in line with the first "An Evening with Kevin Smith". It's rowdy and no holds barred. The London show is more mixed. It has the young wild college kids but even they run more towards film fans. I would bet that the percentage of marijuana smokers is much lower in London. London has more slow spots but it's still quite fascinating. The language problem does get a little tiresome but I don't blame anybody for that.

Again Smith Makes A DVD Strictly For People Like Me Or People Who Enjoy His Humor. My All Time Favourite Part Is When That Idiot Criticized Kevin Smith & He Asked About Smith Owning 10million & He Replied "No I Am Fat & I Buy A Lot Of DVD's & I Am Also Married...Don't Get Married Which Doesn't Seem To Be A Real Problem For You" Now I Am Not Known For Being Intelligent But To Insult Kevin Smith Is The Equivillent Of Poking A Bee Hive With A Stick, It's Stupid To Even Think About Doing It. Another Favourite Part Is When He Did A Review For "Dora The Explorer" I Know The Show Because When Hellboy 2 Came Out They Ran Hellboy 1 On TV & I Fell Asleep The First Time I Saw It...Guess What Was On 12 Hours Later? So I Will Vouch For Kevin & Will Say Its An Amazing Show If Your Stonned. The One Thing I Want Kev To Do Is To Make Jay & Silent Bob Have One Last Movie. I Liked The Canada Disc But Am Not A Huge Fan Of The London Disc...I Fell Asleep In That & Guess What Was On 12 Hours Later?...Just Kidding I Only Watched DTE Once & Once Is Enough! But I Gave Up On The London Disc...Take My Advice If You Hear The First Joke & Laugh In That Disc Then You Will Like It...The Canada Disc Is Better...So If You Want My Opinion You Should Save The Best Til Last.1/2 1/2 Whole, Shuffle, Hide Behind A Rock.

The original An Evening with Kevin Smith DVD was an absolute laugh riot, consistently and outrageously funny. The second time around the humor is not nearly as consistent, this time it's much more hit and miss. When it hits it's very good. When it misses things get rather dull. Basically, this is only ever going to be as good as the questions from the audience. If the questions are poor (and here more than a few of them are) you're left with some serious downtime where the program really loses steam. The original DVD had much more material to work with, taking bits and pieces from a number of different Smith Q&As. Here there are only two shows to draw from, one in Toronto and one in London, and there really is not enough good material to cover the four hour length of the DVD. Some of the questions do nothing but fill, and ultimately waste, time.Another disappointment is that this DVD is a little too much about Kevin Smith's personal life, whereas the first one was much more about Kevin Smith's professional life and his dealings in Hollywood. There's nothing here to match those great stories from the first DVD about the likes of Prince and Tim Burton. Stories about Smith's relationship with his wife or his daughter's television viewing habits were never going to be as compelling as a story about Prince's lunacy. Smith still holds nothing back and is at times obviously trying his hardest to be outrageous. But it turns out it's a lot easier to laugh at a story about Prince than it is to laugh at a story about Smith's wife or Smith's daughter or, in one segment which surely had the old man rolling in his grave, Smith's deceased father. We expect Smith to be outrageous but, ewwwww, there is such a thing as too much information. This DVD has its moments (including the obligatory Jason Mewes appearances) but after the comic gold of the first edition this one is a bit of a disappointment.

Writer/Director:Kevin Smith (Clerks 1 & 2, Chasing Amy, Dogma) goes to Toronto, Canada and England, United Kingdom for some Q & A. Where the audiences could ask smart and silly questions to this independent filmmaker. Smith is a smart guy, isn't shy answering your questions and no doubt having a great time answering to your question.This is an entertaining Q & A film just like the original. Smith is naturally funny guy. Smith also has special guest like his long-time friend/co-star:Jason Mewes in both countries. This is just as long as the first one but the sequel seems to move in a faster pace.DVD has an fine anamorphic Widescreen (1.85:1) transfer and an good-Dolby Digital 5.0 Surround Sound. DVD contains two featurettes and hidden features. This is one of these DVD, you will surely enjoy. This certainly plays like a concert film. If you decide to watch the first evening and then the second one. Prepare yourself for one long enjoyable viewing. (****/*****).
