'The Comedian' LATEST Review: A Good Movie Depicting The Life Of An Old Comedian Nearing Retirement [DETAILS HERE]

Comedians play an important role in our lives as they try their best to uplift our spirits in their own little way. Comic relief provided by them makes life easier, problems lighter, even for a short while. This is what the movie "The Comedian" is all about.

"The Comedian" showcases the life on an old man who has made a living out of being a comedian. He is considered an icon and a legend as he is well-known in providing laughter for several years.

According to Movie Insider, Robert De Niro, the lead character of the movie "The Comedian" plays a comic icon who has seen better days. He has served a lot of people by making them laugh and providing the much-needed respite and comic relief over the years.

The movie "The Comedian" then continues on by showing his efforts to reinvent himself but being left disappointed. People just want to remember him as the former television character he once played.

This is rather relatable for most who are in the showbiz industry. Not many people can move on from characters that actors once played.
