Jason Mewes finally affirms himself as an individual and more than just the leading stoner we've grown up with. Packed with hilarious star studded cameos, some real life glitter, and scenes taking a left turn every time you think it won't will either win over audiences, or leave them wishing there was less of a plot. This isn't Citizen Kane; it's funny, it's inciteful, and it's realistic for aging Hollywood stars. Go into this with the comedy you expect from Jason and Kevin Smith movies, and you'll be more than pleased. Go into this with a serious parental view, and I'm laughing at you. It's Jason Mewes folks; as much as his character wants to be taken seriously in the plot of this movie, the thick Hollywood satire makes it too enjoyable to worry about actual Oscar level honors. A perfect film from exactly what we'd expect, I was very entertained. Excited to see what's up Mewes sleeve next

"Madness in the Method" it is one heck of a good time! An absolute blast full of laughs and straight up craziness!

Jason Mewes directorial debut in Method of Madness is spectacular. Mewes has never been so real. The movie shows Mewes versatility as not just the stoner side kick but a real talent. Mewes has found his calling. A must watch for anyone wanting to see another side of Jason. Excellent movie and look forward to more.

Jay Mewes strikes back! With his first directorial debut, clearly he has been taking notes all these years, or directing is as easy as Kevin Smith makes it look snoogins. A lot of recognizable faces makes this a must see film for anyone who is a fan of Mewes, or tongue in cheek comedy parodies/mockumentery stylized portrayals of real people. Very funny, and smart highly recommend, or recommended if high 😜

Jason Mewes expresses desire to create some separation and distance from his regular on screen comedy role while employing lots of Kevin Smith-esque antics and escapades. The movie direction's OK, script is subpar. There's some pretty women incorporated in the film. Surprise cameos here & there> nothing groundbreaking. There's an interminably long moment in this movie that will prompt you to ponder why you're not watching something else.

Just one small spoiler-ish opinion at the end about the ending that may give away or hint at the ending. Don't read the last paragraph if you're worried about spoilers. The rest is safe. I wasn't really expecting much from this. But I'm kind of an old school Kevin Smith/ViewAskew fan from the 90s. I remember meeting Jason and Walt Flanagan at the comic book store in Redbank and thinking that they were both so real and down to earth. You could tell how characters were based on who they really were. This movie pokes fun at that universe that Kevin created and people's perceptions of the people in his movies vs the characters they play. There is a scene when Kevin and Jason are arguing and Kevin gets really mad. Seriously, that's probably the first real acting he's ever really done. You're never going to get t a point where you suspend belief for this movie, but it was cool to see them playing "themselves" in such different ways. I liked it. There were many familiar faces and references, but it was not obnoxiously laden with overkill cameos or blatant throwbacks that Kevin is more known for- which was nice. I was afraid that he was going to have more input or influence in it. It is definitely not a Kevin Smith movie. The plot was silly and the story was not anything amazing. But there were some very funny moments. Definitely worth seeing if you are fan of Kevin's older movies. But don't expect a Kevin Smith movie. Without giving a blatant spoiler, I had hoped for more of an ending in the vein of American Psycho. I thought that would have been a clever way to wrap it up.

Given that Jason has no job and money so he try to make a low budget movie and collets all unemployed actors from Hollywood which are c-range and work for free Well this crap can work in a real funny movie but not in this mess about madness maybe its time to watch a Jay and silent Bob movie again

You have to love Jason Mewes, The debut of Mewes as director is not perfect, (which isn't a bad thing), but is fun, something that we need nowadays, plus, this blend of fiction with some real life events are handled in a very professional way, the cameos are perfect, and watching Stan Lee was great... I really hope this is the beginning of a series of movies where you can see Mewes and friends acting and having fun... Some people may not like it, but I loved to watch it!

Jay and Silent Bob star Jason Mewes makes his directorial debut with Madness in the Method, in which he stars as himself, forever typecast as the stoner but who desperately wants to gain respect by taking on more serious roles. Encouraged by his pal, director Kevin Smith, to seek out a one-of-a-kind book that will divulge the secrets of method acting, Jason finds himself descending slowly into a world of madness and murder. Having just sat through this thoroughly abysmal movie, I know how Mewes feels: by the end of Madness in the Method, I felt my grip on sanity had gone and I wanted to kill somebody. One thing this film makes abundantly clear is that Mewes isn't Kevin Smith (hell, even Kevin Smith isn't Kevin Smith as much these days): this woeful attempt at emulating his long-time chum's slacker comedy style is a diabolical wreck that sees Mewes not only embarrassing himself, but a whole load of his C-list industry pals as well. Vinnie Jones gets a pass, being a footballer who has somehow carved a new career in Hollywood, but Dean Cain, Judd Nelson, Casper Van Dien, Danny Trejo, Zach Galligan, Teri Hatcher, Brian O'Halloran, and the lovely Gina Carano (who deserves much better than this) give performances that are painful to watch. Mind you, working from a cringe-worthy script by Dominic Burns and Chris Anastasi, what chance did they have? Nearly 100 minutes of mind-numbing dross that should have been shredded moments after it was written, Madness in the Method makes even the worst of Kevin Smith's movies look like pure genius. 1/10. Stan Lee's last movie appearance -- not the greatest way to bid farewell.
