Die Jahre des Erfolgs liegen längst hinter Sitcom-Star Jackie Burke (Robert De Niro). Sein jüngster Auftritt als Standup-Komiker führte zu einer Schlägerei, jetzt sind Sozialstunden im Obdachlosenheim angesagt. Hier lernt der Endsechziger die lebenslustige Harmony (Leslie Mann) kennen, die er zur Hochzeit seiner lesbischen Nichte (Lucy de Vito) mitschleppt. Der Beginn einer Kette vor Ereignissen, die Jackie völlig unerwartet zurück auf die Erfolgsspur bringen. (Sky Cinema)

Robert De Niro shows in this film how well he can handle leading roles and how he is still a great acting master. It's unorthodox, it's gross, it's ugly, and it's funny. I didn't even expect that he could still make a movie about a comedian and it be somewhat different, yet incredibly captivating. But he also had good acting colleagues.

The entire time I couldn't help feeling that I was looking at a custom-made creation for overworked actors. In short, Robert De Niro, Harvey Keitel, and Danny DeVito needed a film to star in. Even the script is kind of tailored to that. Unfortunately, I didn't have much fun watching the film, as the rather silly vulgar banter didn't appeal to me at all. (55%)
