Mallrats

Mallrats, a 1995 teen comedy directed by Kevin Smith, pivots around the misadventures of two disconsolate buddies, dumped by their girlfriends and holed up in a shopping mall. In a day of scheming and scavenging, they concoct harebrained plans to win back their loves and confront their rivals. Smith's trademark dialogue and pop culture references pepper the narrative, grounding the fantastical in the mundane corridors of a suburban mall.
