The plot is forced and flimsy, the characters are thinly conceived, and the comic writing is often cringeworthy.

Rating: C+ --
Hackford trots out a series of familiar, in some cases faded, faces from the past... but the effect is disheartening, like being trapped inside a mediocre Friars Club Roast.

Christian Science Monitor
This is a film that reaches its emotional climax among a crowd of senior citizens at a nursing home singing a rousing song about the difficulty of bowel movements.

Rating: 2/4 --
[Robert] De Niro is fine in the role, but every time he opens his mouth on stage to make a joke, he's just not funny.

While Jackie harbors plenty of rage, The Comedian is ultimately too heavy on the bull.

This script, penned by producer Art Linson and professional insult comedian Jeff Ross, is a stinker for the ages.

Memphis Flyer
The ending isn't as happy, bittersweet, or funny, as it's supposed to be. It's as if the writers had lost interest when the jokes stopped inventing themselves, and frankly, the audience will too.
