Audience Member A documentary about the rise and fall of Boston stand-up scene. Interesting for a fan of comedy but to others it might be a bit boring. Could have been a bit more deeper look of the times and the people. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member A good documentary on the Boston comedy scene of the early 80's. Some really good stories and some funny parts. Gives us a nice glimpse of the personalities and origins of the scene. Wish I could have seen more of the interviews with some of the comics on the special features. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Audience Member They all started somewhere .. a decent look at where, when, brief touches on the why. The glory days of stand-up before the saturation of cable channels. I wanted more Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Fun collection of old video footage of several famous funnymen before they were famous. As a documentary, it's mediocre, though. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Audience Member I learned a lot and laughed a bit, but over all the flimmaker just seems like the kid who was never really a part of their group and this is his way to get in. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Audience Member Fairly decent doc if you know nothing about stand up in the Boston area in the 80's, but it might be a little too skewed towards Boston. However, if you're a fan of standup you'll enjoy this, and might be turned on to other comics you've never heard of. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Read all reviews
