Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

"Relax."I did just that and enjoyed this story! The film has its ups and downs, but it seemed the whole concept was a joke, well I hope so at least, but it was easy enough to take as such. If the premise is taken too seriously, or the 'facts' and likenesses are taken too literally, then yeah, there are some issues... but this is a light-hearted comedy!"Gray skies are gonna Clear up, Put on a happy face"I don't know Albert Brooks comedy routines all that well, and did not sit down with any expectation that he would be funny, or not, or that the film was true or not, but simply wondered what these folks were going to do to entertain me for an hour or so. I was entertained, thanks!"Brush off the clouds and cheer up, Put on a happy face"

closing your eyes is better than watching this movie .The movie totally puts the train out of rails .The writer/director/producer/actors all attached to this movie filmed it just in India and there they claim that they have searched for comedy in Muslim world ? Muslims are minority in India ,how can you find Muslim comedy in some country where Muslims are not even majority ? "i tries hard to search for comedy in this movie but I failed" .The writer/producer seems to be so unaware of the fact ,that Pakistan is country with Muslims in majority and he should have landed in Pakistan first to search for his so called "COMEDY" rather than India .Secondly when you're making a non-fictional movie ,you've to be damn right with the common facts .The writer lacks the basic knowledge about the Muslim world ,as well as India and Pakistan Both. You can get visa to Pakistan as easily buying ice cream. Okay few bad things happen and we laughed .Few mishaps and yeah HA HA HA. You're no Mr.Bean ,there's no humor in your mishaps ,its rather a shame for a writer to visit some other country unprepared. Next time if you make some movie like this please consult some of the translated Muslim literature first and by visiting real Muslim world ,you can consult the world map ,Thanks.

He should be looking for comedy anywhere on earth he can find it, and hopefully learn a thing or two. There was one good joke in the whole movie, and I can't remember what it was because I was bored to tears the rest of the time. But the worst part wasn't the lack of comedy, it was the poor writing. It was one of those films where plot devices were either wasted or completely absent. And it seemed to avoid any type of climax. The entire movie kind of farted around and eventually there's a "blink-and-you-miss-it" ending where it sort of makes a little sense. I found myself longing for the spoon-fed, cookie-cutter, predictable yet efficient Adam Sandler style comedy plot. I only gave this two stars because I sat through it all and didn't have to leave the room. Bad.

How come you show a non Muslim country in the movie named "Looking for Comedy in the Muslim World" Its completely wrong, I have watched this movie I did not find any fun part related to Muslims, It would have been much better if they shot this movie in Pakistan or Indonesia if they were in search of true Muslim world comedy. For instance in Pakistan there are comedy stage shows more popular than English and Indian movies...Its slightly biased view that Muslim world doesn't have comedy or they don't like fun, they do and probably same as any other religion. The only problem is that their comedy is hijacked by few fanatical extremists and media around the world prefer to show what we want to see,, terrorism, killing, nukes, wars.. all related to Muslim unfortunately in current era.however I like the acting and direction
