I went into this movie expecting nothing. It was in the 'hidden gems' section of Netflix, along with "The Wolfpack" and "I Love You Philip Morris." After watching and loving both of those movies for different reasons, I figured I'd give a random movie on this list a chance.
Reading @dpanter 's review is weird. I read it before I saw that the movie was labeled as a comedy. He's right, this movie is more of a comedy than "The Martian" was, but this is definitely not just a comedy.
So what?
It's still a really good and solid movie all the way through. The "payoff" at the end isn't earth-shattering or anything like that, but every part of this movie kept me entertained.
I definitely recommend it, but don't expect to be in hysterics the whole watch as @dpanter apparently was looking for. 8 years ago -

@dpanter I do not understand how your first paragraph corresponds to the rest. I haven't seen it, but from how you describe it in the first paragraph it actually sounds decent. 8 years 6 months ago -

I don't know stand-up comic Mike Birbiglia (don't follow the stand-up scene anymore), but his film adaptation of his autobiographical one-man show, Sleepwalk With Me, is pretty wonderful. Birbiglia (and his movie namesake Matt Pandamiglio) has a sleeping disorder that makes him physically enact his dreams, and sometimes become a danger to himself. This leads to some interesting surreal imagery, though most of the picture is about his struggles both in his relationship (with the always watchable Lauren Ambrose) and his stand-up career. 10 years 3 months ago
