Women Aren’t Funny Storyline

Two aging north-eastern comedians who are on the brink of divorce, ask their friends and colleagues if female comedians are funny or not. It’s more of an unanswered question than any attack on one sex or the other. The couple exchange conversation and debate with ex-lovers, famous comedians, and not-so-famous comedians and eventually end up killing a member of the media who may disagree with 1/2 of the comedy couple. The question of the title comes up time and again and forces the couple to seemingly switch sexes by disguising themselves in beards and creepy disguises to attempt and answer the reverse of the original question. Are men funnier than women? Then the relationship ends in breakdown and both comedians realize that they both aren’t going to do any better and somehow Dane Cook comes out on top.

Women Aren’t Funny Movie Reviews

doesn’t do female comics any favors

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.

More Rich Vos is never the answer

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

This documentary isn’t funny

This “cocumentary” is funny same as Bonny being funny. This whole movie is about her and not much about female comedians nor the subject of women not being funny…if anything this documentary just proves the point they are trying to dispute. She even goes to the point when she says she did not do any research for this subject

Trying to prove women are funny by not being funny. The moment when she asks people “Do you know me?” is just sad…why does it matter? Maybe you are a shitty comedian and thats why nobody knows you? Oh yeah…and she asks Wanda Sykes, Sarah Silverman and Chelsea Peretti about not being funny? What do they know? They never were funny from start

Women can be funny, they are just not in this documentary.
