Excellent DVD - By: J. M. Kimmins, 15 Aug 2008 
This DVD interview is very funny, although I found Kevin's original interview Q&A much more funny, but this was entertaining as well.
It reallly is quite refreshing to watch a Writer/Director speaking so candidly & truthfully about their lives.
tip top stuff - By: sean paul mccann, 10 Sep 2007 An evening with kevin smith 2 is a very nice & generous release,two dvds,two shows,one in canada,one in london,two shows with different stories & jokes,who could ask for more?
Kevin Smith for those in the dark is the director & star of cult classics like clerks & malllrats,who has also found a demand to cameo in things he loves such as the new die hard movie & law & order,he is a geek of sorts & this is his stand up shows albeit with a twist,the whole thing centres around questions from an adoring public,most of which are,yes you guessed it,geeks.
Nevertheless,this is funny stuff,maybe not as funny as some would have you believe,i wasnt screaming the house down,fallling off my chair,vomiting from the pain of laughter or such,but i was entertained & found smith to be excellent at telling stories that are insightful & crude,in parts this is very blue,but it works,well for me anyway.
beyond tedious - By: J. J. Osborn, 03 Sep 2007 
The set up is the same as before - Kevin Smith is asked some inane questions by a bunch of sycophantic nerds who, if not trying to massage his ego outright, make lots of not-reallly-that-obscure pop culture references so it's abundantly clear they like they same things as the director & that they know a lot about his career.
As per his films, his responses revolve around making clichéd sex & drug references which would be funny if they weren't already so well known.
His sing-song voice gets on my nerves as well! Avoid.
Smith on very funny form once again - By: Franklin T Marmoset, 01 Mar 2007 It would have been easy for Kevin Smith to calll this one The Evening Strikes Back or the more over-used Evening 2: Electric Boogaloo, so full credit for going with this slightly awkward Die Hard joke. Who doesn't like a good Die Hard reference? This is another collection of footage from Kevin Smith's traveling Q&A sessions, which are halfway between a stand-up comedy show & the kind of personal appearances that pop stars do at the local branch of HMV.
Where the first Evening film took segments from a number of different shows & edited them into one long performance, part two takes two separate shows (one in Toronto, one in London) & gives a disc to each. The result of this is a more coherent feel than the episodic original.
Smith is on fine form again, regaling his audiences with stories that range from Dora The Explorer to the British Press to the gay phenomenon of 'bears'. Also covered are his aborted attempt to make a Green Hornet film & the terrible reception given to his Ben Affleck/Jennifer Lopez film, Jersey Girl. We even get some follow-up to the stories he told on the last DVD, including Prince's reaction to having his eccentricities mocked so openly, & a surprising reaction from Superman producer Jon Peters.
There's not much more to say about this one without simply re-hashing the very funny stories Smith tells. Suffice to say, this is just as hilarious & insightful as Evening part one, so if you liked that then this sequel will not disappoint.
Inside The Mind Of Kevin Smith - By: Ian Paterson, 21 Feb 2007 
The sequel to the original An Evening with Kevin Smith.
I'm a big fan of Kevin Smith's movies & if you enjoy his DVD commenteries then this is right up your street.
From watching Dora The Explorer whilst high, to what links Chuck Norris, Chewbacca & Jesus Christ, the english media, a very alternative ending to Lord oF The Rings, shooting your wife for playboy, Prince as a jehovah witness, your parents having a quickie in a public toilet & Ninja's saving Jesus from the cross just some of the topics that Kevin Smith can deviate to from a simple question like "do you ever get writers block"
Here Smith is live on stage answering questions on disc one form a largerly student audience in Toronto & on the 2nd disc in London. The whooping from the audience in Toronto compaired to London makes perhaps the 2nd disc funnier where Smith isn't interupted as much.
Smith has his pet "chav" in toe with Jason Mewes making guest appearance.
This is 3 hours of very funny anecdotes & Smith who uses real incidents to create dialogue for his films is at times painfully candid much to the embarrasement of his wife & mother.
Only thing I would say about this DVD is there are a lot of references to the original An Evening With kevin Smith & if you want to get the most out of this one you should reallly try & get your hands on a copy of the first one to watch first.
Definately worth watching & look out for quite a few easter eggs across the 2 discs as well.
