Review

forget seinfeld this movie is about stand-up comedy. orny adams is the perfect contrast to jerry seinfeld – orny is a cocky wannabe and jerry is humble, hard working and has already been to the top. beyond the tale of those two characters is the story of stand-up comedy in general. it does a real good job of giving the audience an idea of what it’s like to be a stand-up comic. it’s a well structured and well edited documentary that’s worth watching even for people who don’t love seinfeld. two commentary tracks, the one with the director is pretty good, didn’t listen to the other one yet.
