This is a feel good movie. Chevy Chase plays a has been Hollywood talent agent who is probably supposed to be somewhat older than he actually is. Richard Dreyfus plays a comedian who is considerably older than he actually is. Dreyfus is very convincing and his character is like able and suave. The jokes we get to hear him say are only mildly funny. The director made a good decision to show how funny he is by focusing on audience laughter instead of what the comedian is saying. I didn't like the makeup on Dreyfus. Either he was made up to look like he had terrible skin problems or he actually has the skin problems and the makeup staff couldn't hide it. An actress I didn't know, Kate Micucci, played Chase's adult daughter. She has one of those "doe-eyed" faces that can be cute and comical as she wishes. It is a small role but I thought she did it really well.
