Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
A thoroughly entertaining doc that serves also as a primer on Brand's shockingly successful comedy career and an introduction to his singular personality.

Timoner's doc seems at its best when asking if a person can grow up, atone for their mistakes, lead people to think and make them laugh, all at the same time and in public.

rotten:
Brand is incapable of the focus for anything deeper than tactics of charm, glibness, and shock.
