I caught this movie on TUBI, and wasn't quite sure to expect from this indie thriller. But, wow...what a thrill ride!
The story follows Brett Sugarman, a ambitious comedian who isn't all that funny..or socially adept at being normal! Brett's ambition can only take him so far, and when that limit is stretched Brett finds his mental state in fast decline!
I loved the story, the characters all felt very real, and the behind the scenes look at a comedian's struggles was really interesting to see. This is a movie that doesn't allow you to get comfortable, once the story starts you're taken on a journey. I highly recommend this film if you like movies like "Joker" or "Taxi Driver".
