This documentary focuses on two stand-up comedians -- Jerry Seinfeld and Orny Adams -- whose careers are vastly different. Seinfeld is a veteran of the comedy trenches and is well-known for his TV sitcom, while Adams is a rising star in the business and who is nowhere near as successful. Both comics are in crisis, to some degree. Seinfeld wants to relaunch his standup career, and Adams wants regular gigs on the late-night TV circuit and eventually a sitcom.

6. Comedian (2002) - Anthony's Film Review
With that, my rating for Comedian is a 5/10. That means a marginally negative rating, based on the fact that there's a little stuff I liked but it's outweighed ...
After ending his popular eponymous television sitcom in 1997, comedian Jerry Seinfeld did something that many would not expect. Rather than taking on a new project in television, he went back to his stand-up comedy roots. And it's not like he rehashed the good material that worked before. Instead, he decided to start completely fresh with new never-before-seen material. This is one of the subjects in the 2002 documentary film Comedian, which is supposed to give people an insight into what it's like to be a comedian.
