Barry Rothbart (born May 25, 1983) is an American comedian, actor and writer. He currently splits his time between Los Angeles and New York City. He was named one of Variety magazine's "10 Comics to Watch" in 2013. He played the role of Peter Deblasio in 2013's The Wolf of Wall Street , played Kevin on ABC's Downward Dog and currently appears on Showtime's Kidding.
In a film where a Black couple is framed to be the lead characters, they still managed to get shuffled off to the sidelines. The enthusiastic cast delivers well on goofy bits- but can only go so far before they begin to fall flat.
'The Lovebirds' is one of those movies that has a very direct appeal when it comes to its comedy. There isn’t a singular style, so much as tidbits of various ones here and there.
