The Joke Thief

Much like everything else Frank D'angelo does, it was complete garbage. His own production, acting, and music make for one of the worst movies you will ever watch. You clearly need to be missing a few brain cells to enjoy it.

My only question is how much these people were paid, obviously by Frank, to give positive reviews ????? To anyone making good reviews on here, are you dumb or did you get paid? Idiots.

Frank, you are terrible at literally EVERYTHING you do. Go back to digging carrots out of the garden.

From the cinematic universe of Frank D'Angelo comes another entertaining and fascinating film. The Joke Thief is funny, thoughtful, and well written. This is a provocative film that really makes you think about life. It takes you through a romp of feelings and emotions. It made me think about my own life as well. It's beautifully shot, incredibly acted, and the best film I've seen so far in 2018!

The Joke Thief will have you laughing and crying at the same time. It's truly a beautiful film. Featuring Simon a struggling comedian played by Frank D'Angelo who is down on his luck and always looking for way to get a leg up on the competition. His bitterness and insecurities are evident as he struggles to make ends meet all the while realizing how he got where he is in the first place. This bittersweet film teaches life lessons at every turn as it showcases an unlikely pairing of Simon and his Uber driver Jerry. Far from a just an Uber driver, Jerry enlightens the entire audience. A must see!!

Well. I will start by saying it's more of life observation that a movie. It's honesty touched Me and I really engaged with Simon (the main character).

Life is short and keep trying to make it or reaching for something you always wanted is never impossible. A small budget, but big on hope and honesty. You will switch off in 10 minutes or fall in love. But hey, that's life.x

It's clear that in today's landscape we have films get their numbers and reviews placed by people involved with the movie. While quality is certainly somewhat subjective, the theory that stat padding is usually pretty clear when you've seen a movie that has much different reviews than the rest while those positive have it being the only one that account has filled out. Lesser known films this is more obvious.

This is certainly a case of that.

The Joke Thief is written, directed, starred, produced etc all by the same individual. A Canadian entrepreneur who has so much money that he basically creates movies as a hobby. It's too bad they aren't good ones.

Even the best scene in the movie is ruined by a reveal immediately afterwards that the movie is taking itself way too seriously. It's ironic that a movie called the Joke Thief doesn't have very many good ones.

Sometimes you find a small film and it's a welcome experience. You wonder how this is so under the radar. This one proves that sometimes small films aren't very widely known for a reason.
