...is fantastic.

I also saw Birdman recently, and it was damn good, too. Everybody was great, but Edward Norton really captured his man well. Despite some laughs, the film made me uneasy/uncomfortable throughout, which was the point...still, it might be better to rent.

You're confusing Tracy Morgan with Edward Norton

^Yeah, seriously, where was my blunder? I was legally high at the time so now I'm confused.

This is a fucking mess of a movie. There's a large amount of cringe-worthy dialogue, and not in the good way. The good parts are excellent, but they're few and far between.

A different editor really needed a pass at this.

Are they cringe-worthy cause that's how people talk in "real life"?

I cringe all day.

No, and that's the problem. The cringe-worthy moments were ridiculous lines that rang totally false.

It's strange to me that Rock attempted a movie in this style with no apparent writing or editing input from Louis CK, the current best in the business at staging realistic conversation. They're friends!

Anything with other comedians was great. The apartment reunion scene, all of the Cedric stuff, etc. There was just a lot that didn't go together. JB Smoove spends the whole movie being awful to women, but he's the one who delivers the "go get her" speech? WTF?

I can't recall everything...but I thought the apartment reunion scene was on point (from my point of view as the voyeur).
