Press Quotes

Arrow did a beautiful Blu-ray of it... It has gorgeous artwork and looks better actually than the theatrical cut of the movie. It's packed, man, it's packed. Arrow sent me three copies and I'm not giving any away!

     —Kevin Smith

Mallrats is still a fun and enjoyable movie twenty-five years after its release. Arrow Video's Blu-ray release of the film offers a nice upgrade with excellent A/V quality and a bevy of bonus materials to sort through. For long-time fans, this comes highly recommended.

     —The Digital Bits

This 25th-anniversary edition from Arrow isn't even its Blu-ray debut, but they give the picture the expected bells and whistles, and with the benefit of hindsight, its dual-layer nostalgia holds up pretty well.

     —The Playlist

This Arrow release offers superior technical merits in the video department in particular to the previous Universal releases, as well as a glut of excellent supplements. Recommended.

     —Blu-ray.com

The plethora of bonus materials make this worth it just to witness the director's filmmaking process as he went from the indies to the majors after just one film; very inspiring stuff to any budding filmmaker out there for sure!

     —Horror Fuel

This is gorgeous. Jammed onto two discs, Arrow offers three different cuts - theatrical, extended, and the TV edit. The original and TV versions offer new intros from Kevin Smith, and he's fantastic, even inspiring in his message. The added comics and soundtrack promo finish off a perfect bonus section.
