An aging comic icon, Jackie (Robert De Niro) has seen better days.a Despite his efforts to reinvent himself and his comic genius, the audience only wants to know him as the former television character he once played.a Already a strain on his younger brother (Danny DeVito) and his wife (Patti LuPone), Jackie is forced to serve out a sentence doing community service for accosting an audience member. While there, he meets Harmony (Leslie Mann), the daughter of a sleazy Florida real estate mogul (Harvey Keitel), and the two find inspiration in one another resulting in surprising consequences.

They call him Robert "No Dinero" in LA because he doesn't tip. Thanks for ruining every movie you've been in. Robert DeZero

Don't waste your time or money. Jokes are terrible, maybe it's just the way de Niro delivers them. Should have had an actual comedian play the lead role.

Soundtrack- amazing. Cast- unbelievable. Script- like watching a train wreck.:-/ If you have nothing else to do on a Saturday night and you are a De Niro fan, give it a shot. Otherwise, bypass with haste!
