    Robbed

    A man walks into a talent agent's office. He says, 'Remember the Blair Witch Project? How that was utter crap but got so overhyped that the dumb audience went out and paid for it anyway? Well have I got an act for you..' That's about the premise of this film - get 100 comedians to discuss a lame joke, throw in as much obscenity as possible, mention 9/11 and all the other things that people get upset about, give the audience absolutely nothing for their money, although the cast and the people making the film appear to be having a great time, and pass the whole thing off as the greatest film ever. And what do we call ourselves 'The (comedy) aristocrats'. They should have paid me to spend 1.5 hours of my life watching this utter pile of s**t (I wouldn't have edited that word, but the review won't be accepted without it) - I'm really angry that they took my money to watch this. Avoid, as you would a rabid dog.

    Abdondon hope all who enter here

    Be prepared - because the dark psychological 'problems' that drive people to be funny for a living are on full display here.

    If you find the contradictions of the comic mind fascinating then this simple collection of interviews will be a treasure trove of insights. Even if you're not too familiar with some of the US comics featured.

    If you prefer to just sit back and laugh, leaving insights to psychologists then you'll soon get bored of the filthy ramblings of a group of clearly insane attention seekers.

    Choose wisely. Get it wrong and you'll ruin your evening.

    Docs Rock

    • 04 Mar 2009

    Inspired by the release of “American Teen”, we’ve compiled own playlist of must-see twenty first century documentaries. It’s been quite a decade for non-fiction filmmakers. Once synonymous with earnest and boring, the genre has undergone a radical facelift and enjoyed the kind of box-office success that would have been beyond the wildest dreams of the old guard of fly-on-the-wall practitioners. If Michael Apted had been charting the life cycle of the documentary film... Read more
