(1 - 14) of 14 OFCS Rating: 71% Fresh Page   1   "Choppy editing and too many repetitive scenes spoil what could have been an important documentary about stand-up comedy."   ReelTalk Movie Reviews   Betty Jo Tucker 3/5 "It’s both endlessly intriguing and side-splittingly funny."   eFilmCritic.com   David Cornelius 3/4 "Comedian probably would have worked a lot better had it focused entirely on Seinfeld, but as it is, it's still an eye-opening look at the life of a comic."   Reel Film Reviews   David Nusair C+ "Ultra-cheap and incorrigibly lo-fi, Comedian doesn't have much rhyme or reason, or a point."   Film Blather   Eugene Novikov 3/4 "Comedian never comes full circle with the intimate details surrounding the personal life of Jerry Seinfeld. The real romanticism is about a man and his love affair with one main dancing partner—the companion called comedy."   TheWorldJournal.com   Frank Ochieng C+ "A simpler, leaner treatment would have been preferable; after all, being about nothing is sometimes funnier than being about something."   One Guy's Opinion   Frank Swietek 4/5 "Digital-video documentary about stand-up comedians is a great glimpse into a very different world."   Netflix   James Rocchi 7/10 "Manages to make the viewer feel the fear, pressure, frustration and success of making people laugh for a living."   Screen It!   Jim Judy 7/10 "I was fascinated by most of what I saw, despite a little redundancy."   JoBlo's Movie Emporium   JoBlo 4/5 "It doesn't have a narrative arc so much as it sips from the snifter of the life of a comedian, but that does not detract from its interest one bit."   Cinerina   Karina Montgomery 2.5/5 "[Charles and Streiner's] behind-the-scenes look at how professional comedians actually put together an act will be a revelation to most people who aren't in the business of being funny."   TV Guide's Movie Guide   Maitland McDonagh 3.5/5 "Charles dives into the booze-tinged, cigarette-soaked comedy clubs of New York with the finesse of a low-budget documentary filmmaker."   Filmcritic.com   Sean O'Connell B+ Read review   EricDSnider.com   Eric D. Snider 2/4 Read review   Big Picture Big Sound   Joe Lozito  (1 - 14) of 14 OFCS Rating: 71% Fresh Page   1
