This film is categorized as a comedy, but believe me, it is not. Not an more than The Martian was a comedy. Sure there are a few jokes here and there, the burqa scene was the only part I actually laughed at because it was clearly intending to lampoon the idea. Apart from that, it's the same old dry humor you would expect from Fey but without any payoff. This film is a drama with the lead character being a comedian. War films are becoming less popular as we drain the bottom of the barrel here, ironically this is a plot point for the film too. It's as predictable as you would expect and way too long. After an hour I was ready for the film to be over, but realized we had another 50 minutes to go. Slow pace, not funny and just boring. Three stars at best.
