It's Tim Minchin's downbeat, dark and fatalistic sense of humour that comes through in this great doco about his rise from nowhere to somewhere. Go to Full Review

07/31/2022 The greatest 01 hour: and 29 minutes ever with real footage!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! See more 11/12/2013 I found this movie to be pleasantly grounding. It showed that even though following your passions can be tough for you and the people you love, the support of family & good friends can overcome all shit life throws at you. See more 04/20/2011 While you do get many of the glimpses behind the rock facade that this kind of doc. is usually expected to provide, they are just as creepily voyeuristic as usual. While less cliche and more recent & first-hand than the VH1 variety, this feels more creepy and unnecessary for the effort. The performance and rehearsal scenes are of interest, however, as well as the sort of self-analysis and response to blind criticism on screen. See more 01/18/2010 I hate Tim and don’ get why he’s so popular but, clearly I’m missing something. See more 10/17/2009 I had heard of but not seen Tim before, and he does really shine here. See more 08/18/2009 From the edge of obscurity to the verge of celebrity Tim Minchin, a young musician who in a last ditch attempt to get noticed decides to give comedy a go. This will be his last try before he?ll have to get a day job. The Melbourne International Comedy Festival, then Edinburgh, the most competitive comedy festival in the world. Good documentary, I enjoyed it a lot. Loved the Minchins!!!!! Tim Minchin is funny, poetic, musical, and touching. http://rocknrollnerd.com See more Read all reviews
