If you only see one Documentary this year...miss this one.
While it's well made, and skillfully edited, (place cutting joke here) how much time do you want to spend with Joan Rivers? Like a shark that has to move through the water or die, she has to work or perish. The main thing you get, anyone who can stay in Joan Rivers's life deserves combat pay. The Johnny Carson impact on her life was interesting. There are some laughs. The footage with her grandson was touching.
It often feels repetitive and drags at times. It could be shorter. "The Celebrity Apprentice" footage especially with her daughter would not be missed. With so many more interesting people and issues in the world a star on Hollywood Boulevard is enough and perhaps more appropriate then a documentary.
