Bridget S Great documentary! Interesting! Movie provides insight into the man, Gary Mule Deer. Who he is, and where he came from. Film also reiterates Gary's comedic skills, which are very funny! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/16/23 Full Review Leon M This film is the funniest thing I've seen in a very long time. It tells the story of Gary Mule Deer, a true comedian's comedian. At first, I rented it but after watching it, I realized that now I had to buy it! It's just that good! The focus is on Gary and we hear him tell a lot of his history and road stories but the cast of characters which are interviewed make this film entertaining on several levels. There are film clips from Gary's appearances on late night TV talk shows, as well as dozens of clips from comedy clubs across the land. We also get to hear Gary relate his history of cocaine abuse and recovery, which is quite heartwarming. There are also some reenactments scattered among the way and they are spot on! Produced by Heather Wilk and directed by G.B. Shannon, this is a flawless and honest look back at some of the funniest moments I ever remember seeing on late night TV and now, I remember who was telling all those hilarious jokes and trying to imitate Johnny Cash. Produced by some very talented folks from Memphis, Tennessee, VIA Productions, LoBrow Film and Red Entertainment, I feel that by far, this is their best release! Don't miss it! Buy it today! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/11/23 Full Review Breezy L If you're a comedy fan, you'll enjoy watching this film! Hearing from comedy legends about this seemingly obscure comedian makes you realize he was a big deal, we just didn't know it. The reenactments with Gary's voiceover are a clever way to portray his stories about his past. And they're really fun to watch. I'm also happy to know that one reference in Gilmore Girls now! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/09/23 Full Review Brandon C An absolute master class of a film about a story I would have otherwise not been blessed with. Genuinely my life is better after seeing this. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/07/23 Full Review Carl A This is really well done and tells a wonderful story about an amazing person. I recommend others watch it. Gary Muledeer is a superb comedian, and this documentary captures his essence beautifully. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/04/23 Full Review Sam B The subtle, gentle and endearing irony here is that Mr. Mule Deer is the least-known of all the stars in this film. When you have big-hitters like Steve Martin, Letterman, Leno, even Alice Cooper singing your praises, it's clear that you've made quite an impact. This film reveals a lost slice of comedic history that many will find intriguing, even educational. But forget all that: it's a really fun film to watch.
