Review of The Comedian (2016) by Shawn R — 07 Jul 2018

I thought he, Robert De Niro is a prick, but a human prick. A Modern Lenny Bruce who seems to think America 102 is on a slide into life as a series of Reality TV shows that can't stand the rude, meanness it, itself has become.

We're assholes who put babies into camps, babies big and little kids, families, babies we've stolen from mothers who have risked not only their own lives to save their kids and give them a chance to have decent lives, but even the lives of their kids to give them a chance to have good lives.

They love these kids so much they travel through a thousand plus miles of terror, never knowing what will become of them what will even happen one minute to the next. What do we do? We mock them; we degrade them; we send them back to hell with or without the children we've stolen from them as if we had a right to do it because we are Americans.

This is the bullshit Reality Show we live in every day, and it's getting worse, because we're getting worse. We are mean little asshole hypocrites. Fuck this bullshit. Good movie.
