I wanted more jokes. But I'm never tired of watching the star.

| Original Score: B+ | Jan 4, 2018

This is not a comedy concert film, it's about the hard work of creating comedy, about the glare of the spotlight, about the rush of a good performance, and the heartsink of comic meltdown on stage.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Dec 27, 2007

| Original Score: 4/5 | Dec 6, 2005

Um olhar fascinante sobre os bastidores da comdia stand-up.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Jul 7, 2003

It's both endlessly intriguing and side-splittingly funny.

| Original Score: 3/5 | May 22, 2003

Think sausage. It's gristly, filled with fat, and even if you like standup comedy, you might not want to see it done.

Being funny is serious business.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | Apr 13, 2003

Choppy editing and too many repetitive scenes spoil what could have been an important documentary about stand-up comedy.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Feb 17, 2003

Digital-video documentary about stand-up comedians is a great glimpse into a very different world.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Feb 11, 2003

Comedian never comes full circle with the intimate details surrounding the personal life of Jerry Seinfeld. The real romanticism is about a man and his love affair with one main dancing partner-the companion called comedy.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Feb 2, 2003

You might be shocked to discover that Seinfeld's real life is boring.

Full Review | Original Score: C- | Jan 14, 2003

It doesn't have a narrative arc so much as it sips from the snifter of the life of a comedian, but that does not detract from its interest one bit.

Full Review | Original Score: 4/5 | Dec 14, 2002

Those with an interest in the art of stand-up will revel in this, and there's enough laughs to sustain it for those not looking to overintellectualize things.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Dec 8, 2002

Ultra-cheap and incorrigibly lo-fi, Comedian doesn't have much rhyme or reason, or a point.

Full Review | Original Score: C+ | Nov 26, 2002

What's missing most from Comedian is the stand-up act that Seinfeld is so carefully crafting.
