This Black Friday, let’s take a look at Kevin Smith’s second film “Mallrats,” which is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year.

While you can still see teens roaming malls today, the mall culture of the 1980s and ’90s no longer really exists. Even Black Friday — especially this year — has largely shifted online.
