   Martin Scorsese's "The King of Comedy" is one of the most arid, painful, wounded movies I've ever seen. It's hard to believe Scorsese made it; instead of the big-city life, the violence and sexuality of his movies like " Taxi Driver " and " Mean Streets ," what we have here is an agonizing portrait of lonely, angry people with their emotions ...

   The King of Comedy, which Film Forum is presenting in a new 4K restoration for a week-long run, brilliantly keeps viewers unmoored, the result of its consistently off-kilter tone. Though filled with sight gags and corny jokes, the movie is also darkened by genuine menace.

   Sep 4, 2019 · For a movie about a failed standup comedian, The King of Comedy difficult to watch. Rupert’s delusions of success are funny at first but then grow cringe-worthy — and then dangerous.

   Is King of comedy a good movie?

   • At this point King of Comedy has never been more appropriate such as it is a look at the darker side of the American dream of fame. The film uses someone who is clearly delusional and reasonably talentless to show how fame is the desire, rather than a bye product of being talented and how everyone wants to be around the famous etc.

   Why is King of comedy a bad movie?

   • King of Comedy aggravates the problem it's supposed to illuminate. Far from clarifying the nature of a creepy social pathology, the movie assumes an attitude of smug, unjustified superiority toward every character in sight and the cockeyed spectacle of pop culture in general.
