How sad is this?
Robert Joyner
The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

This is my first review, and I'm doing it because Dave Chen said I should do so on the /filmcast. This is a wonderful movie, compelling and unexpectedly emotional. Stephen Tobolowsky is a wonderful storyteller who weaves his stories together masterfully, who left me smiling, laughing and even made me tear up just a little. In terms of direction, there isn't that much, intro and conclusion aside (these are, however, beautifully lit and shot). Chen simply steps aside and lets Tobolowsky have the stage, which, really, is the best choice he could've made. I recommend this movie (and it's only 73 minutes short!) to anyone who enjoys hearing good stories, well told, by a wonderful, philosophical and soulful storyteller.

Tobolowsky really has a way with words and with telling a story. Sometimes quite funny, but at times very moving, Tobolowsky and first time director David Chen give us a peak into the character actor's thoughts about why we tell stories and into his own life. And it is quite something. Reflections on Hollywood, fame, family, getting older, loss and love are interwoven in a seamless fashion. It might no be a film like the ones most people watch on a regular basis. But in this case that's most certainly a credit.Anyone worrying it might be boring just watching Tobolowsky doing a show, can rest assured: this is a quite a spellbinding film.

Awful film a real waste of your time. I sat down and watched this trash with high hopes given my general fondness for the Tobe. I am trying to find something nice to say about it but I cannot. I have liked the Tobe in pretty much everything he has done but the direction and general organization of this film is so bad it works against the general likability of the star. I have not heard of Mr Chen before but I have to ask if this chap has any idea what he was doing before he shat this abomination out. The editing in particular is poor and the entire affair lacks any style or indeed actual flair. It may well be the worst documentary I have ever seen bar none. Avoid at all costs.
