Film Threat Don R. Lewis

A fun, structured ride.

Variety Joe Leydon

Amiably slapdash docu about The Comedians of Comedy tour mixes on-stage performances, backstage bull sessions and downtime tomfoolery to generally satisfying and frequently hilarious effect.

Village Voice Akiva Gottlieb

Only works when the subjects are onstage. Watching the quartet doing laundry, playing arcade games, or getting haircuts evokes the banality of road life far too accurately, and at 105 minutes, the film hardly leaves us wanting more.

The New York Times Laura Kern

Part stand-up performance, part behind-the-scenes chit-chat, Michael Blieden's indulgent and often numbingly slow documentary follows four semiknown comedians.

New York Daily News Jack Mathews

While there is a great deal of laughter among the quartet, there's scarcely a giggle in it for the audience.

The Most fun I ever Had as A Comic Heckler.....Ever.!

S C. gave it a9:
I just saw this last night, and in my opinion this is one of the funniest Documentary's I have ever seen. I laughed so much, so many times that I actually hurt myself. The Extras on the DVD are also hilarious. If you are a fan of "Alternative Comedy" then just go watch it already!
