Absolutely Mesmerising.


Never before have I laughed and felt sad whilst watching a documentary. This film was simply outstanding, and what a hilarious and fascinating figure Chris Farley was. I recommend this to anyone who has heard of him.

The whole documentary is bittersweet to me. Especially when Dan Aykroyd was on the screen. He already lost good friend John Belushi down the same path that snagged Chris Farley. Lorri Bagley and David Spade still seem to have a lot of pain behind Farley's death. I felt bad for them all.

At the same time, Chris Farley was funny as heck. The old clips from Second City were hilarious, even though we couldn't hear any audio. His shenanigans when he was a student and younger were hysterical.




No two persons ever watch the same movie.

This is a very heart-felt, compelling documentary that pays appropriate respect to a master of comedy who was distracted by the all-too-familiar vices. On the other hand, I don't think it provides a lot of new insight to fans who already know Chris Farley's work, which is likely to be the bulk of the audience. I could also have done without all the talking heads telling us what we already know. (Tom Arnold, anyone?) Nonetheless, my interest level and ability to be touched by the inevitable conclusion were enough for me to rate this 8/10 stars.

this is the third chris farley documentary i've seen i think, i watched the saturday night live dvd about farley over and over, and some of those scenes were featured again here, the 90 minutes just flew by, what a riot.



on a night train,
in the last waggon you came on by,
turn me on in way i can't explain,
makes me lose control about to go off the rail,
and i feel so alive as you switch on to the next level,
out of nowhere you arrived, like a station light,
though by the mountains its dark outside,
through the trees and twigs i can see the shine in every mile,
since in this carriage late on you stopped on by.
