What makes Exporting Raymond more than just a funny sketchbook are its insights into the mutability of comedy.

The culture clash that ensues is so fascinating that Exporting Raymond nearly succeeds despite itself.

If (and only if) you need to know every detail about how the Russian version of "Everybody Loves Raymond" was put together, drop everything to see "Exporting Raymond."

"Exporting Raymond" is interesting, and even enjoyable, precisely because of the Russians, whose lives and work Mr. Rosenthal generously portrays alongside his own neuroses.

There are no grand insights, but in all the fretting and frustration, the filmmaker cracks a window into the new Russian soul, albeit a tiny one.
