One hundred superstar comedians tell the same very, VERY dirty, filthy joke--one shared privately by comics since Vaudeville.

The Aristocrats Ratings & Reviews
Newsweek
David Ansen
The first feel-good movie made out of fecal matter.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Ken Tucker
... The Aristocrats proves that sometimes you don't have to be a great filmmaker to make a great documentary.
AV Club
Nathan Rabin
Within a single joke, The Aristocrats unlocks an entire universe of comedy.
Austin Chronicle
Marjorie Baumgarten
In comedy, as in life, it's the journey, not the outcome, that proves most fascinating.
Arizona Republic
Bill Muller
Let me reiterate. This movie is really, really dirty.
Observer
Andrew Sarris
See it if you aren't too jaded to appreciate a few laughs in these mostly mirthless times.
The New Yorker
David Denby
Exudes cheerfulness and expansive joy.
Washington Post
Stephen Hunter
For my taste, the joke is a little too scatological for comfort.
Washington Post
Michael O'Sullivan
Under normal circumstances, nothing kills a joke faster than trying to explain it. Yet here, such examination is the film's strong suit and provides much-needed respite, quite frankly, from the exhaustion of constant laughter.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
It's very funny, but it's also a bit dull.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
Like the joke, the filmmakers keep their movie alive, not by changing any of the fundamentals but by finding new ways to embroider the basic material.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Carrie Rickey
I laughed myself blue.
Houston Chronicle
Bruce Westbrook
Alone, the jokes would become a tedious, 87-minute blur. But The Aristocrats also has eloquent analyses by George Carlin, show-stealing bits by Sarah Silverman and Whoopi Goldberg, and inventive ways to keep the joke from getting stale.
Detroit Free Press
Terry Lawson
The dissection of a joke is never pretty, but it has never been nastier than it is in The Aristocrats.
Denver Post
Lisa Kennedy
As The Aristocrats repeats its chorus of dirt again and again, one starts to weary. Call it filth fatigue.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
A working demonstration of the pleasures of the profane.
Dallas Morning News
Chris Vognar
A scabrously funny meditation on the idea of shock.
Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Phil Kloer
Staggeringly obscene and very funny.
Chicago Tribune
Allison Benedikt
Though you'll laugh your head off, the whole film kind of morphs into a blur, with one poop/sex/abuse joke after another.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
The Aristocrats might have made a nice short subject.
