Jun 14, 2025I watched it for 40 minutes waiting for something funny to be said or to happen. Couldn't take it anymore. Slow and boring, uninteresting guy with an uninteresting life. Was it supposed to be a comedy???!!! God help us... or help Hollywood.

Oct 18, 2022Loved it. Don't let the poor title and lower profile lead actor fool you. It is a well written, heart warming story with an excellent script. The lead actor, while not good enough to be a successful stand up comedian, is certainly a very talented actor, one to look out for. Loved seeing Billy Crystal in a multi-dimensional, dramatic character role while still retaining his signature charm.

Oct 18, 2022This film will never win an award for best original story but it is 90mins very well spent. It is well written, well cast and beautifully executed. Basically a story about life that is sincere and heartfelt, none of the actors seem like they are reading from script and it flows very naturally. Unless you're looking for action and thrills then it is hard not to love this film and all of the characters in it. Well worth watching.
