John Candy: I Like Me Ratings & Reviews
- Shaun McMillanOctober 10, 2025An incredible documentary about a great person
- Splitvision89February 13, 2026One of the best documentaries I have ever watched. Unfortunately John passed away before my obsession with comedy and movies began, but it was a highlight of my childhood getting to his movies with my dad.
- UsablePainFebruary 7, 2026Amazing guy. What else is there to say!
- Rob StrotmanOctober 15, 2025After 30+ years, I did not realize how much I missed John until I watched this and I was surprised by how often I teared up during the documentary-especially when you see how often interviewers passive aggressively questioned his weight or brought up "bad" movies. Absolutely unconscionable behavior. But John did more in his short life than most do in 100 years. He was one-of-a-kind and sorely missed...This is a great doc.
- Andrew BaxOctober 11, 2025Highly recommend. If you are a John Candy fan, this is a must watch. One of the best comedians of the time who died far too soon.
- arnoldo20021612October 13, 2025Lovely moving tribute to the great John Candy. I have never heard a bad word said about him at all which is rare these days. All in all a genuine great guy. Well crafted documentary by Colin Hanks. Recommended
