The title of this well-intentioned movie ought to have been, Allah Made Me "Occasionally" Funny: Live in Concert.

In the end, while the humor is at times bit uneven, Allah Made Me Funny achieves its goal of breaking down stereotypes with a tongue-in-cheek grace.

The performers are amiable, but the material is only mildly amusing.

It's hit-and-miss. But Allah Made Me Funny: Live in Concert is a film that doesn't let go from the very first moment.
