Audience Member I think this is the perfect gateway into learning who Patrice O'Neal was and his impact on comedy and culture!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member Fascinating story of a flawed but at the same time amazing comedian philosopher. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member I usually hate stand up documentaries but this one avoids all the pretentiousness that they are usually filled with. Got to see lots of stuff from Patrice that I had never come across before and some good insights into his personal life. I wish there had been more shit talking from the cellar table guys, I feel like they could have narrated half the doc with just their conversations. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member If you respect comedy and stand up, you can appreciate the admiration his peers had for him Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/21/21 Full Review Read all reviews
