Audience Member Loved every minute of this. Wonderful look at one of the most intriguing comedians of all time. The guests featured in this special are fantastic. It's highly entertaining, insightful, and worthwhile. If you love Super Dave or Curb or any of Bob's other work, you will definitely be grateful if you check this out. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member This is a great tribute to a very special comedian. Known as Super Dave, Marty Funkhouser, or Bob Einstein. He had a unique style which spanned multiple decades. Bob worked with and is remembered in this by many famous people, including Steve Martin, Rob Reiner, Jimmy Kimmel, Larry David and more. The clips in this tribute are aged but still funny as hell. I recommend this if you like him, or never heard of him. If his grandkids don't bring you to tears I'd be shocked. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Dayne R This was such a beautiful hillarous and heartfelt documentary about one of the most underrated comedians ever. I loved Super Dave as a kid and when I started watching Curb Your Enthusiasm my favorite supporting character was always Marty Funkhauser. Bob would have really loved this a lot. A huge thanks to the cast and crew for releasing this masterpiece! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/30/21 Full Review Audience Member A fascinating study of a fascinating man. I had no idea that he had a brother. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Amusing yet empty documentary about a man who had funny sketches nearly 40 years ago, but has trouble to say anything relevant about the comedy world or anything new you couldn´t find a wikipedia page. Good for a small giggle, but not worth a full documentary. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member This is the funniest movie I've seen in ages. Now I'm trying to figure out how to watch every show that he's ever appeared in. This is an absolute MUST see! Where in the world can we find a laugh out loud comedian who can provoke such belly laughs and all without cursing and sex. Okay maybe once in a while he may slip one in....
