  This doc is part performance video, part backstage/behind the scenes look at a comedy tour Patton Oswalt did with fellow alternative comics Brian Posehn, Zach Galifianakis, and Maria Bamford. It's really offbeat, weird, and kooky, kind of like the four comics themselves. A lot of the onstage stuff is very dry, but the rest is where I found most of the overt humor to be. It's somewhat lacking when it comes to getting deep insights into these people, and they really are quite weird (especially Bamford, who kinda creeps me out), and perhaps a tad boring when not in performance mode. But overall, it is interesting to see the lives of comedians behind the scenes done shorter and less heavy handed than in Funny People. I did like it though, for the most part. If you like offbeat stuff, then you'll perhaps enjoy this.

  Being a relatively recent fan of Patton Oswalt, I was excited to watch this documentary about the tour he did a few years back with Brian Posehn, Zach Galifianakis, and Maria Bamford. Sadly, if you're already familiar with the material then all you get are wacky backstage hijinks, some of which are funny and some which are not. No real insight into the people themselves, other than watching Oswalt and Posehn embrace and discuss their nerdiness on comic shop Wednesdays.

  To start here I have to begin by saying comedy is subjective and everyone has their own opinion of what is funny and what is not. Personally, I found this to be a terrifically funny and entertaining look at what life on the road is like for many modern-day comedians. Patton Oswalt has always been a favorite of mine, but I very much enjoy Brian Posehn, Maria Bamford and Zach Galifianikis as well. Maybe it's because I more closely identify with them and their "off-beat" personalities, this probably stems from the fact that I've been a proud "nerd" all my life. These are people who were brave enough to stand out by simply being themselves and not trying to fit into any category or alter their personalities in order to endear themselves to a wider audience. Brian and Patton are 40- year old comic book lovers, how could you not find that refreshing? Too many people take life much too seriously and spend most of it worrying about what everyone else thinks of them, these are INDIVIDUALS who could not care less about that. The comedy in this film is not always laugh-out-loud funny, but it is not forced. It's honest and unapologetic, which is what comedy is really all about. A great documentary, check it out

  too stoned review: cant ber bothered typin right now just wasnr funny comedians r boring two days later review: This doc follows the comics it says it does only to reveal something most of us already know -comedians are fucking boring. Yeh, they're funny when they're paid to be, but when they're not on stage, they're not havin orgies and drum circles in the tour bus, they're just getting drunk, farting, and napping like a retirement home with the occasional injection of humor observed when the comedians are working on their act or engaging in comedian talk with one another (analyzing jokes, sets, shit like that). If you are a fan of Brian Posehn, Patton Oswalt, or Zack Galifianakis and you want to see their butts, watch this movie. Chubs Posehn and Oswalt strip down to nadda but their bullocks in hand, and cubby Galifianakis is eager to show off his hot rear on the tour bus. Thus ends the highlights of this movie - a weirdo piano playing cock tease is eager to show off his plump buttocks and two insecure bitchy chubs walkin around naked in the woods. And Maria Bamford's set. But you could just watch "The Comedians of Comedy: Live at the El Rey" and just see the standup bits rather than watch this, which has bits from that El Rey gig and a few others, but really only for CoC fans. Might be worthwhile for Galifianakis fans as he is not at the El Rey show, but I don't know his material, so I don't know if anything on here is unique.

  A great documentary about real comedians. Brian Posehn's explanation of Star Wars is one of the funniest bits I have ever heard.

  A good documentary showing the behind the scenes antics from the Comedians of Comedy tour with Patton Oswalt, Zach Galifanakis, Maria Bamford and Brian Posehn.  Nothing groundbreaking, it?s more of a puff piece, but lots of laughs.

  Funny for a quick tv watch.

  Kinda unfunny. I would give this a pass.
