Critics Consensus

The comedians featured in Allah Made Me Funny are, like the movie itself, only mildly amusing.

2.5/4

A performance documentary with a tiny budget and a big spirit that follows three comics as they travel the country looking for laughs and understanding.

The package is a friendly, if lackluster, affair...

It's hit-and-miss. But Allah Made Me Funny: Live in Concert is a film that doesn't let go from the very first moment.

2/4

The jokes are clean, and definitely ecumenical, Jews and Christians and Muslims getting together. It's a good message, but a bit safe for the anarchic spirit of true comedy.

The whole thing is like an HBO comedy special -- Allah made these guys pretty funny -- and it's hard to see why it's getting theatrical release.

Azhar Usman - v funny. Mohammed Amer - some good bits, especially about football. Preacher Moss - not a single chuckle out of me :(

In terms of a stand up comedy act, I felt each of the comics had their moments. They poked fun at all sorts of topics that relate to American Muslims. However, to call this a movie is incorrect. There wasn't really much substance beyond the three acts really. The additional scenes they put in even seemed a bit awkward at times in their relation to the rest of the show.

A hilarious film, but sadly there were 9 of us in the audience on a Saturday night. This film deserves an audience. It very funny and groundbreaking as are the stand-up comics featured. Also nice to see stand-up without a constant stream of expletives. Go see it to support the cause.
