7/10
Nostalgic, pop culture filled and heartfelt

Ill start by saying i was stoned when i watched it but i really enjoyed the film. Is it going to win an oscar? ofcourse not but its not meant to nor is it the point. The film isnt particularly original being that its rebooting old material, its not the greatest score your ever hear or even Smith film that your see but it doesnt matter. What the film is is a homage to the past 25 years of Jay and Bob, a wonderful reunion for the characters we've seen through the years and a pop culture explosion. Theres moments that feel a tad forced but if your a fan theres soo many throwbacks that you find yourself constantly reliving old favourites but in a new slightly different meta setting. Loved the cameo by the Comic book men and Q from TESD. And then there was Affleck, Damon and Lee which was gold. So glad Affleck agreed to do it. The Stan Lee footage at the end was so lovely and genuine, and a great way to show the relationship him and Smith had. A nice addition to the story that while not the best installment still a must watch for any fan and a great film to bake and watch. Im confident theres enough references to spot ones you missed on subsequent viewings. 7/10
