About
You’ll likely enjoy this bittersweet comedy-drama about divorce and rediscovering purpose through stand-up, but Not for you if you want nonstop jokes or faster pacing, like Somewhere in Queens or Top Five might fit better.
Pros: relatable relationship focus; standout lead performances; New York comedy energy | Cons: pacing can drag; not many laughs; tonal confusion
