Leave your thoughts about The Bitter Buddha.
| Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckThis loving portrait of the angst-ridden comedian should well lift his profile. |
| VarietyJoe LeydonBy turns robustly amusing and wistfully melancholy. |
| Chicago TribuneMichael PhillipsThe film succeeds in reflecting the weird sweetness in Pepitone. |
| Monsters and CriticsRon WilkinsonHalf successful standup comic Eddie Pepitone expands the screen from stage to life as he lives his part 24 hours a day. |
| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzAn enjoyable lighthearted watch about someone you want to root for to succeed. |
| The PlaylistKatie WalshThis is a portrait of an interesting and endearing misanthrope, but someone who we all know lives inside of us. Eddie's just more willing to put it all out there, to express that existential angst most modern people experience. |
| Shared DarknessBrent SimonForget the tears of a clown as it pertains to inner psychology of a comedian -- what about the rage of a clown? That's the principal focus of The Bitter Buddha, a doc that's too polite and removed. |
| User ReviewMichael LVery funny with a bittersweet twist. This guy has been through a lot and keeps on going. Did I mention it was very funny? I enjoyed it thoroughly. |
| User ReviewDylan SAwesome documentary about one of the best stand ups ever. Loved it. |
| User ReviewKristal CA great documentary about a dude who finally found his own unique voice in his 50s. It also illustrates to me that stand-up comedy is a thankless business that doesn't seem worth the effort. |
