It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.

It is not only a funny movie, but it allows a great amount of joy for anyone who watches it.

a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

Bonnie is a moderately funny woman. She has some things that are holding her back. She decided that being a male would put her over the top. She is funny but changing gender did not make her funnier.

I love Vos and Bonnie. I know that is weird cuz I've never met them. But their podcast is hilarious, their comedy is great, and this movie is very well done for a first movie.My favorite part is seeing Bonnie's butt in the weeds. It was amazing. Didn't JO to it but plan to.The only thing I didn't like is how Bonnie doubts her skills, or the podcast, or her humor in general. I understand she's a chick and gets emotional bit Jesus it gets old. Vos is close minded, for sure ("No I'm not!") but that's prob why I liked this movie so much. Cuz you get to see the madness behind the scenes.If you like Vos and Bonnie, definitely give this a shot. You'll probably love it, and it'll prob put you in a good mood.Mark

It's a pretty lame documentary. Im actually surprised it got made in the end. Nothing is learned, nothing is gained. many popular female comics are completely absent and/or never even mentioned (rosanne, whoopi, Kathy griffin, more) It's totally self indulgent. I'm not even sure if there was a single redeeming clip in the entire thing. Every time she got close to having an interesting interview it ended up turning silly. She had golden opportunities with some really great people, like Joan Rivers & Wanda Sykes, but she didn't capitalize on the fact that she had them sitting right across from her. Those parts were too short and the parts with her acting dumb were too long. Its just a mess. I liked Bonnie mcfarlane before I watched this and it actually made my opinion of her go down.

It's a shame Ms. Mcfarlane chose to half-a** it. The myth of unfunny women could have been interesting. But she didn't explore the history of women in comedy or perhaps the psychological reasoning why women don't prefer women comics. You could have had a few panel discussions. And more Rich Vos is never the answer. And no Kathy Griffin? Odd.She lacked confidence through the film and made it way more personal than it needed to be. And if she wanted to go that route why not talk about how she broke in and what her family/friends thought about it. And were they barriers? It's also strange that four of the five writers for the movie are men. Can't help a sister out? But the interviews are still fun and worth a few laughs
