WILD WEST COMEDY SHOW




Documentary

PRINCIPAL PARTICIPANTS
Vince Vaughn, organizer and show emcee
The four stand-up comedians:
Ahmed Ahmed, John Caparulo, Bret Ernst and Sebasrian Maniscalco

REVIEW
If you can hang in long enough to get past the opening silly improv comedy routine the rest of the movie is quiet entertaining. Most road trip movies are just that: tagging along watching the scenery go by while a group travels from one place to another doing their thing. This one is different in the sense the group members provide an assessment of their act and other uniquely personal thoughts. Few of us have any idea of the difficulties a comedian encounters not just performing every night for 30 nights but the insecurities they face.

Offsetting that of course are snippets from their on-stage acts, which provide enough hilarity to keep things on an even keel.

CLASSIFICATION
for pervasive language and some sex-related humor.
