Notes et avis

Pretty good. Not as funny as I thought it would be, but entertaining. That may be because I studied Middle Eastern history, religion and society for my BA, so I can see the punchlines coming. You're not going to die laughing but I enjoyed the amount of diversity it reveals within the Muslim community in the United States. It's sort of a feel-good-docu-comedy show. It's worth the money. Also, I lived in Columbus, GA for a few years and visited Tupelo, MS over the summer so it was fun to see those places in the show. I'm not surprised there was a small turnout for the event in Columbus. That was a bad choice of venue. Most of the newer areas and more frequented venues are in the northern part of town, close to where they rented their car. Of course, nowhere in Columbus is going to look special if you fly in directly from NYC. I know from personal experience.

Anything by Jon Stewart (The Daily Show) has to be a screamer - and this is no exception! Rent/Buy it - if only to see how gracefully Jon's aging now! But this really is worth your time/$. Where else will you get material to battle the un-American Right?

It is not about Islam religion itself, but it summarizes stereotypes of american people to Muslims in the US. It is fun too
