This was a wonderful tribute to the memory and career of such a unique performer and gave great insight into how far back and important he was on the comedy industry. I don't understand the reviews condemning the fact that other comedians told the straight up story of how Bob was. Based on what they all said he wouldn't have wanted it told with fluff, but instead as honestly as they stated. My only issue with the film was that I wish it were longer. While there probably wasn't that much more to say about his career, all the clips from his Super Dave stunts on "Bizarre" had me longing to revisit them all again.
...of a million laughs is watching two dozen comedians stomp all over the jokes of one who's shuffled off this mortal coil, then this is the flick for you.
Loved Bob Einstein/Super Dave Osborne. Loved every clip of his priceless routines/wit. This whole "documentary" (which has some great Super-Dave bits in it) is almost undone by the likes of Patton Oswalt, Sara Silverman, Kimmel, Seinfeld, etc. Every one of them filmed grinning painfully before a huge screen so we could see they are watching just what we were watching. I mean REALLY? Have we gotten that stupid??? Super Dave would have hated this thing.
Between the old clips and the modern commentary of Bob Einstein's peers, this documentary is a perfect remembrance of his genius. It isn't just a great story about his life and who he was, but it's also incredibly entertaining. Easily watchable more than once.
Everybody knows that the best part of comedy is analyzing why jokes are funny (yeah right). I don't believe they showed a single Bob Einstein clip without insisting on following up with an explanation for why it was funny. Insufferable is one word to describe the handling of this documentary, thanks to HBO's desire to appeal to every one of their subscribers, instead of just giving fans of Super Dave the tribute he deserved.
