Amy Nicholson FilmWeek (LAist) 06/13/2020
It's hard to root for this [character] to succeed. I think the film sets up a lot of interesting questions and then just softballs it with a happy ending. Go to Full Review
Carla Hay Culture Mix 07/22/2020
Despite being very predictable, [the movie] has an endearing sweetness at the core of its raunchy humor ... The movie gives a better-than-expected look at stand-up comedy on the nightclub level ... that will keep viewers reasonably entertained. Go to Full Review

Natasha Y Dec 18 It’s about having heart with being real life not stealing others material with being down to earth and don’t forget where you come from. See more 10/18/2020 Cute and funny! I would recommend See more 10/02/2020 The chemistry of the leads and quippy dialogue made this film far more enjoyable than expected. Jay Pharoah has a new fan and Kat Williams is at his funniest when roasting his fellow comedians. 6.5/10 See more 09/11/2020 Started off cheesy and seemed like another ~comedy~ movie. But as it played, it became real to the point the viewer was able to relate and become empathetic and really connect with the characters. It isn't a comedy film. It is a drama to follow the life of an up an coming comedian risking it all. Katt Williams plays a great antagonist and it flows great with Jay's performance. Please watch it. See more 08/12/2020 This movie is absolutely hilarious. To all of you who rate it low , well that's on you sorry people. I mean common people . These are two comedy genius. Jay and Kat are so funny . I really, really enjoyed this movie . I didn't laugh like this in years . !!! Must see this movie See more 08/11/2020 2 minutes of fame was funny, well acted, and it had a good plot. It had its dull moments, but it kept me engaged with its wits, funny moments and it had heart! Good comedy if you just want to past time. See more Read all reviews
