Critics Consensus

An affectionate documentary packed with revealing archival material, Thank You Very Much doesn't decode the legendary Andy Kaufman's mystique but will make audiences feel just a little bit closer to him.

Alissa Wilkinson

New York Times

Braverman wisely does not try to imitate Kaufman’s style in the film, instead opting to explore his career through old footage and conversations with people who knew him.

Washington Post

Braverman has a number of aces up his sleeve, including a wealth of interviews filmed in the 1990s.

Rated: 3/4

It’s very clear that Braverman has a lot of respect and reverence for his subject, and it’s worth a watch for those who are curious about this goofy guy who used to slap on a foreign accent and play with bongos & people’s perceptions.

Rated: 2.5/4

...Thank You Very Much...is too conventional...but the archive material is so good and some of the testimonies are so revealing that the documentary is equally valuable...[Full review in Spanish]

Rated: 3.5/5

(I)t doesn’t simply throw up its hands and declare Kaufman to be ultimately unknowable.

Still an engaging motion picture especially excelling in eschewing concrete answers about this comedy legend.
