My Take on The Comedy

I&apos;m a big fan of Tim &amp; Eric Awesome Show Great Job, and that is essentially why I wanted to see this, but this film is another animal. There&apos;s the humor that fans of Tim &amp; Eric are used to scattered here and there throughout the film but I think it mainly works to compliment the mood of the entire piece. Be warned, this is not a regular film, if that&apos;s what you desire than that&apos;s just fine, see something else. The Comedy is that piece of art on the wall, when you see it for the first time, that makes you think of how you act and who you are and what you&apos;re doing. It&apos;s that thing that someone said to you that stuck in your head and brought up memories you&apos;d forgotten about and lies that you&apos;ve told yourself. But this is just how I felt, reviews are flawed because they can only tell you how that particular person felt about that particular thing. You may see it and just see one big, boring piece of crud. I&apos;m not going to say that I think the movie was trying to say one thing or another because I believe any good art isn&apos;t clearly defined or pinned down. All I know is that it affected me. I really do hope more people see it because I believe we need something like this to level out everything else that&apos;s thrown at us. Give it a chance.
