Synopsis: Vince Vaughn's Wild West Comedy Show: 30 Days and 30 Nights – Hollywood to the Heartland chronicles the journey of Vince Vaughn, star of the hit films Fred Claus, The Break Up, Wedding Crashers,... Vince Vaughn's Wild West Comedy Show: 30 Days and 30 Nights – Hollywood to the Heartland chronicles the journey of Vince Vaughn, star of the hit films Fred Claus, The Break Up, Wedding Crashers, Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story, Old School, and Swingers, and four stand-up comedians as they traverse the country performing in a live variety show. In the spirit of the old west variety shows, Vaughn plays host to the ensemble of comedians and performs improvisational sketches with surprise celebrity and musical guests. Hand picked by Vaughn to perform on the tour, from the world famous Comedy Store in Los Angeles, are national comedians Ahmed Ahmed, John Caparulo, Bret Ernst, and Sebastian Maniscalco. The film provides audiences a rare opportunity to experience Vaughn and his team as they travel over 6,000 miles across the heartland of America and perform 30 shows in 30 days. Traveling to cities that don't ordinarily attract this type of entertainment, Vaughn and his team bring their unique styles and perspectives to regional audiences throughout Western, Southern and Midwestern states. Through rousing onstage performances and behind-the-scenes interviews, the engaging film breaks down the true essence of each comedian's life altering experiences and the personal and professional challenges that will unite four comics, one movie star and legions of fans from Hollywood to the Heartland. --© Picturehouse [More]

Reviews for Wild West Comedy Show: 30 Days & 30 Nights -...
West is heavy on Vaughn, at least initially, but woefully short on comedy.
A tad overlong, but as vanity projects go, this is warm, openhearted stuff.
While the tour looks like it had an appealingly ragged spontaneity and goofiness, the film itself is a chore to sit through at times.
Unlike Eddie Murphy and Jim Carrey, who make being funny look like a dreary chore, Vince Vaughn seems like a dude who actually enjoys his job.
Documentary chronicling Vince Vaughn's month-long traveling comedy show isn't as funny as it wants to be, but it's good for a few laughs.
The standup excerpts in the opening credits montage are, without exception, completely unfunny ... but, between a third and halfway through, things begin to pick up. All four comics deliver some first-rate material.
Vaughn's ambitious dream project offers more than just a look at four budding stand-up comics, but a look at our country from a very unique perspective as well.
The performance footage is less engaging than your average standup act on Comedy Central, while the backstage interviews about the comedic craft are pointless.
A welcome, sweet-natured road trip that happily and willfully exploits Vince Vaughn’s marquee value to showcase a quartet of very deserving upstart comedians.
Wild West Comedy Show is less a movie than a concert, but it's probably the best comedy concert you'll see all year.
Vince Vaughn's Wild West Comedy Show has a loosey-goosey, what-the-hell spirit that's easy and fun to hook into.
Break-out comedian Sebastian Maniscalo deserves his own TV series or a big movie.
Even at 100 minutes, this documentary about Vaughn and pals' 2005 bus tour from L.A. to Chicago (and all points in between, oy) plays a little long.
If you were expecting an actual comedy concert film, however, you’ve got another thing coming.
Yee-haw, I love a good Wild West variety show! Disappointment sets in when it’s clear that there will be little in the way of variety.
