A scathing indictment of the entertainment industry, and of pop consumerism as a whole, [i]The King of Comedy[/i] relentlessly pokes and prods all of Hollywood's pressure points with deft precision and wit, providing audiences with the most potent pairing of Scorcese and DeNiro since [i]Taxi Driver {th[/i]e film which, ironically [i]KOC tra[/i]des on the most}.

This review of The King of Comedy (1982) was written by on 19 Sep 2010.
