Review of Comedian (2002) by Megan B — 27 Aug 2009

This movie could have been a lot more interesting if it actually followed what it's like to become a comedian which it sorta does but not really well. The movie is mostly following Jerry Seinfeld and Orny Adams (Orny was the worst choice to put in the movie because you hate his guts) as they try to rise in the ranks of stardom.

THe documentary is laborious and much less funny then their stand up. It cool to hear quips from all their funny celebrity friends but that's the extent of the enjoyment. Also for a documentary with such huge names in it, you think you would get better film quality.

THe Blair Witch Project was shot better then this. If your interested in seeing stand up or a good documentary, rent something else.
