Maz Jobrani's clowning is a salve for our troubling times.May 12, 2016
Teetering precariously between satire and base humor, "Jimmy Vestvood" squanders opportunities for both.April 18, 2016
The satire is well-balanced and, more often than not, the jokes go over like gangbusters. With its humorous cultural lens, this movie should be a career-changing moment for Jobrani.June 23, 2016
Sheila Vand steals Jimmy Vestvood: Amerikan Hero as the vivacious Leila. After the smoldering, dark-eyed performance as the chador-wearing vampire in A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night, it turns out a girl also has fantastic comedic chops.September 22, 2016
In the style of Borat, director Jonathan Kesselman and cowriters Jobrani and Amir Ohebsion use raunchy, puerile humor to jab at American prejudices toward the Middle East.May 19, 2016
Bold, raunchy and biting, Jimmy Vestvood is one of the most outrageously funny comedies in years.
