Watch The Comedy Best Movies life time

On the cusp of inheriting his father's estate, Swanson (Tim Heidecker, "Tim & Eric Awesome Show, Great Job!") is a man with unlimited options. An aging hipster in Brooklyn, he spends his days in aimless recreation with like-minded friends ("Tim & Eric" co-star Eric Wareheim, LCD Soundsystem frontman James Murphy and comedian Gregg Turkington a.k.a."Neil Hamburger") in games of comic irreverence and mock sincerity. As Swanson grows restless of the safety a sheltered life offers him, he tests the limits of acceptable behavior, pushing the envelope in every way he can. Heidecker's deadpan delivery cleverly masks a deep desire for connection and sense in the modern world. The Comedy wears its name on its sleeve, but director Rick Alverson's powerful and provocative character study touches a darkness behind the humor that resonates with viewers long after the story ends.

Review For Movie The Comedy

The longest and dreariest 94 minutes I've spent on a movie this year.
Moira MacDonald-Seattle Times

None of this is necessarily funny. That's the extent of the irony here.
Wesley Morris-Boston Globe

The joke, I guess, is that there's nothing funny about "The Comedy."
Barbara VanDenburgh-Arizona Republic

A mean-spirited piece of mumblecore that tries to provoke you, but only succeeds in boring you.
David Lewis-San Francisco Chronicle

A character study that tries to make the revolting compelling.
Kyle Smith-New York Post

If you can discern any critical distance or interesting perspective here, or even a good reason to spend 90 minutes in such company, I'm afraid the joke is on you.
A.O. Scott-New York Times

While this could have been the perfect portrait of a certain kind of idiot, the baroque cruelties and tonal monotony go too far.
Nicolas Rapold-Film Comment Magazine

An essential portrait of a generation of people laughing so hard that they've forgotten the joke is on them.
David Ehrlich-Boxoffice Magazine

This is a lacerating portrait of the sort of narcissistic self-loathing that has kept educated, economically comfortable young people from achieving their true potential, from Benjamin Braddock to Hannah Horvath.
Marc Mohan-Oregonian

Champions what it appears to mock and indicts what it appears to glorify.
Michael Nordine-Willamette Week

[A] relentlessly aimless, abrasive stab at black humor.
Gerald Peary-Boston Phoenix

All this is credible enough until Swanson exits the airtight bubble of his peers to bully New York City at large.
Leah Churner-Austin Chronicle

Pushing the boundaries of taste isn't necessarily a bad thing, but the film is so busy daring its audience to hurl insults that it forgets to simply be funny.
Todd Jorgenson-Cinemalogue.com

A billion times better than Tim and Eric's Billion Dollar Movie.
Matt Pais-RedEye

It's a long, painful sit that claws at interpretational ambition, but only nails the rare moment of enlightenment, wasting 90 minutes of screentime to acquire about 15 minutes worth of substance.
Brian Orndorf-Blu-ray.com

The Comedy may not aspire to be the portrait of a generation, but it certainly offers a scary dissection of a faux-careless Brooklynite sensibility that threatens to be the undoing of everyone involved.
Ted Scheinman-Paste Magazine

An unconventional, unapologetic comedy that's unbelievably entertaining.
Chase Whale-We Got This Covered
