Not Much More than Magic in 'Maestro'
In 'Maestro,' we're left with an impression but not with an understanding of the main character.
Stood Up (2007)
The sex comedy Stood Up is the almost true, slightly embellished, okay, fictional life story of real-life comedian "The Reverend" Bob Levy (known for his outrageous stand-up act and appearances on such shows as "Kidd Chris" and "Miserable Men"). One night in a comedy club, Bob tells his tales of woe to a beautiful fan (Moni Michaels) who can't believe her ears. It's a sad, albeit, funny story of his life, relationships and career. Things always seem poised to take off, but a series of misadventures — many thanks to his evil agent Sammi (Savanna Samson) — Bob is always one step from greatness and is constantly getting Stood Up.
