A pretty sophisticated film, really. Very well-written and directed. The acting is far above average, The leads are impeccable. Jocelyn Ayanna as the Black waitress absolutely kills it. A diamond in the rough. The film asks many questions about who we are as humans. Fascinating!

Very interesting movie. The acting is good, grungy

Very interesting movie. The acting is good, grungy and meaty. The movie makes us care about the characters. Ventriloquist puppet Jesus on the Cross is hilarious. "Middle Man" poses some fascinating questions about humour. Why were the old comedians funny in their day? (Abbott & Costello, Burns & Allen, Jack Benny, Chaplin). Were they ever as funny as today's more hip comedians? Why are they boring today? Is it because they have been copied ad nauseam? Have we grown more sophisticated? Or are we missing the context, the zeitgeist? Note how Lenny's gruesome recitation is very funny because if the context, because of how we perceive it. Past generation were as smart as we are. Why was their humour so different? Were any jesters in Imperial Rome, or Medieval Europe, as hip as today's Seinfeld, Luis C.K., Chris Rock, Richard Pryor? Where is a Lenny Bruce type in the Old Testament?
