It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

First let me say that I have watched this movie about three times, and have enjoyed it each time. This is more than simply a story of a comic who takes his aging father on the road, but more of one about the purest love that exists on this planet, and the dynamic of parent and child and how roles can reverse in life, and the way as humans we approach it. Also, Jim Breuer is one of my favorite stand up comedians, yet shows another side to his character as a son, a man and a caregiver. I will say when Jim was speaking about his father, I broke down multiple times crying. I am about to have to do this same thing with my father who has had a stroke with nobody to care for him. My brother has stepped up to the plate, and we will all do what we can. This is the way life should be. Also, do a Google search about Jim Breuer and his father. What a great human being, and a great comic. I would call this a drama documentary. Good job Jim. A must see for all.

Actually documentary doesn't contain stand up material pretty much at all. It's more about his almost 90yo dad he decides to drag on his stand up tour. 95% of documentary is him walking him slowly around, dressing and undressing him and gagging on him smelly dumps. His dad is old school dude who doesn't show any emotions or barely even speaks. Guess those long scenes them walking around and climbing stairs with tear jerking acoustic guitar soundtrack didn't really touch me at any level. What is the purpose of this documentary? Pointing out that people don't live forever, so send some time whit them before its too late and help them out? Guess that should be obvious to everyone. I got distant feeling this was bit self glorifying bit how he hangs with her dad even that he is rich and doesn't really need to.In a nut cell I didn't get any laughs or tears out from this documentary even that I like the guy.

I stumbled upon this movie in a boredom moment wanting a quick laugh before bed time in the stand up comedy section. What I got was far from that. One of the most engaging, relate-able, heartfelt movies I have ever seen. I am a 30 year old male and do not cry easily but let me tell you this movie pulled at my last heartstrings. It really shows how important family is and how love should work. This movie motivates me to be a better son, father, and person in general. One of the biggest movie surprises of my life. This is a fantastic documentary. Really changed my views on a lot of things including Jim Breuer. This guy is extremely smart and knows what he is doing. He reminds me of my brother. He is goofy on stage but he has gained my respect forever. In fact I would like to be more like him in the he puts his life and family in perspective. This movie is unbelievable from beginning to end and seems to get better by the second. A big surprise but one that i'm genuinely grateful for.

I stay up late and watch a lot of Netflix. I love stand up comedy and had exhausted Netflix supply when as a last resort I clicked on Jim Breuer's "More Than Me". I truly was not a fan of Breuer's comedy, truth be told I still am not. I have a dry sense of humor and Breuer is an in your face, silly kid of guy. Never the less, Jim Bruer gained a fan tonight. I admire him as a wonderful human being with a tender heart and as a great family man. Having cared for an elderly parent, I could really relate to Jim's circumstances. The show is not really about comedy at all. It is about his relationship with his Dad, it is about life and love and family. It is about growing up and growing old. I loved the show, it was a beautiful story of father and son connecting . Jim Breuer may not make me laugh, but tonight he made me cry. I highly recommend this film.
