Every Major Movie Sequel Of 2022 - Ranked From Worst To Best
15. Clerks III
Clerks III remains one of the most bizarre, bewildering sequels of the last few years, for while Kevin Smith sold it as a redemptive, hopeful farewell to Dante (Brian O'Halloran) and Randall (Jeff Anderson), that wasn't really what we got at all.
A desperately sad, even legitimately depressing conclusion to the slacker duo's story, Clerks III saw Smith use his real-life health issues to get incredibly real about life, and arguably did so in a manner which didn't best serve his characters.
Throw in a bevy of immensely hit-and-miss meta gags and some embarrassing shilling for NFTs, and you've got a strange mess of a sequel that at least packs a strong emotional punch, as much as fans might have mixed feelings about it.
