pink_pup They're funny. They work hard and live day to day. They can't catch a break. The only thing that contradicts that narrative is there own actions, like a bunch of reform school kids on an extended holiday. Some of the comics have such animosity towards their audience the comedy borders on social sadism. A fascinating documentary. Broken people make the best subjects and this doc has them in spades. My favorite comedians were Sean Rouse and Kristine Levine. Dirty fantastic stuff.

O2D I have always been a huge fan of comedians and I don't usually find many I haven't seen before.After getting over the shock of never having heard of this movie, I was even more surprised that I had only heard of two of the comedians in it.This documentary is a great look into the road lives of real comedians.I'm sure the average person won't find any of these guys funny.They also won't feel sympathy for them when ten people come to a show and they can't even afford to buy a can of snuff.No, the average person only cares about Dane Cook or whatever unfunny douche bag is currently hot.Traveling in a private plane and performing for sold out arenas full of comedy impaired mental midgets.For those who think this movie is supposed to be funny, it's a DOCUMENTARY.They aren't supposed to be funny, they are supposed to be informative.If you want to laugh at a documentary, go watch some of that Errol Morris crap.That guy is a real joke.If you like real comedy and real documentaries, watch this.

iqqt Few people realize that what makes us laugh typically has a negative base. From slapstick of 3 Stooges smacking and poking each other to any typical sitcom, where the laughs are based on misunderstanding, miscommunication and misconduct. The Unbookables are equally guilty, but their material is based on topics far more real. Monologues are based on everyday, true to life subjects that might shock, disturb, or at least cause you to keep your laughter hidden inside. War. Cancer. Incest. Beastiality. Child prostitution. Cock gagging & anal gaping. These are subjects that few would imagine as having a funny side, but they do, as evidenced by the audience laughter. It may be strained laughter accompanied by a shake of the head or hands covering the face, but it's laughter. This group of guerrilla comedians are talented, but they sacrifice big venues, big paychecks and big distribution by staying true to their material. In uncommon style, this documentary leaves the stage, and follows their life on tour as they test their patience and sanity while crammed in a retro tour van, constantly simmered in alcohol and stolen hydrocodone, quickly establishing a pecking order where the most senior of the group is constantly harassed, not so much out of disrespect as out of the need to channel stress. A unique view of life on the road of darkest comedy that is definitely not for everyone. It forces the question: Do some find this comedy has gone too far simply because they learned that even the darkest subjects truly do contain humor?

Dizzee_Ragdoll This is a documentary about a few pathetic middle aged men travelling around in a van and drinking and acting like teenagers. They turn up for shows which they have apparently written no material for and the audiences hate them. Are they making a living from this? I've been to a few free comedy nights and open mic nights and never seen anything this bad. It was just really depressing to watch. These sad men seem to have no self awareness at all. It's not even funny while being dumb and rude and disgusting like the way Jackass is funny and you really like all their personalities (apart from Preston), I hated every one of these guys and me or any one of my friends could get on stage drunk any night of the week and put on a funnier show.
