Critic Reviews of "The Comedy"
Seattle TimesDecember 06, 2012The longest and dreariest 94 minutes I've spent on a movie this year.
Boston GlobeDecember 06, 2012None of this is necessarily funny. That's the extent of the irony here.
Arizona RepublicNovember 29, 2012The joke, I guess, is that there's nothing funny about "The Comedy."
San Francisco ChronicleNovember 22, 2012A mean-spirited piece of mumblecore that tries to provoke you, but only succeeds in boring you.
New York PostNovember 16, 2012A character study that tries to make the revolting compelling.
New York TimesNovember 15, 2012If 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.
Dig BostonApril 13, 2016For something titled The Comedy, this movie isn't funny. Or charming, likable, enjoyable, or any other adjectives you would find splashed on a poster.
QuickflixNovember 25, 2013As a portrait of a generation that's almost collectively sociopathic, this is frightening. For the right audience it's also damn funny. If I wasn't so emotionally stunted and able to enjoy things unironically I'd say I loved it.
Film Comment MagazineJune 28, 2013While this could have been the perfect portrait of a certain kind of idiot, the baroque cruelties and tonal monotony go too far.
Boxoffice MagazineApril 01, 2013An essential portrait of a generation of people laughing so hard that they've forgotten the joke is on them.
OregonianJanuary 24, 2013This 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.
Willamette WeekJanuary 24, 2013Champions what it appears to mock and indicts what it appears to glorify.
