Albert Brooks’s film epitomizes his singular voice in the varied comedy landscape of the 1970s.

RTChicago Sun-TimesMay 16, 2019

A great idea. But the movie that Albert Brooks has made from it, alas, gets most of its laughs in the first 10 minutes, slides into a long middle stretch of repetitive situations and ends on a note of embarrassing hysteria.

RTWashington PostApr 30, 2018

While the fictitious Albert Brooks takes us cheerfully into his confidence, the Albert Brooks behind the camera sees through him with hilarious clarity.

In a lot of ways, Real Life was ahead of its time, especially when you consider the wide range of reality TV over the last 25 years.
