A young man struggles to keep his record store open.
This essentially an updating of Kevin Smith CLERKS set in a record store. It looks like and feels like a version of the earlier film. The reason is that Kevin Smith produced and edited the film (as well as appearing as Silent Bob). It's not a bad thing, but it makes this film awfully familiar.
Personally I liked this film a great deal. I laughed a lot.
At the same time I wish Logic hadn't copied Smith so closely. There is nothing wrong with it, and it could be argued that he has made a better film than Smith's, but the film shows so much talent that it's kind of sad that the film has to copy. If the film had been less of a copy people could see just how good a filmmaker Logic is.
But I'm quibbling. I was entertained which is more than enough.
