Will Chu has it all - the job, the girl - but what’s missing is his true passion in life, to become a stand-up comedian. When he gets the opportunity he’s been waiting for, the emcee slot on the road opening for his hero Billy G., the realities of life on the stage come crashing in. Between relentless hecklers, drunk comedy groupies and hard-to-impress morning radio DJs, things get off to a rough start. Even if he can take the opportunity to learn from his idols and overcome the challenges, Will still needs to decide if he should continue with the life he has, or pursue the one he has always dreamt of – the life of a comedian.

Definitely more heartwarming than funny, but just average for us. Cedric deserved some more dialogue and I didn't find the comedian very hilarious but all in all, an anti-climactic feel good movie.

It was okay. Cedric should have had some funny jokes on stage as well. Cedric's mentoring skills were very confronting. The story was decent and entertaining and gave a good lesson for up coming comedians.

Highly recommend. Great cast! Heartfelt story that has honest performances by Jimmy and Cedric. Must see for comedy fans.
