Richard Pryor: Omit the Logic Ratings & Reviews
Eye for Film
Amber Wilkinson
This may be a jet-ski ride over Pryor's life rather than a deep-sea dive but it offers a firm celebration that's likely to encourage those who have watched it to seek out more material from the man himself - and that can never be a bad thing.
HollywoodChicago.com
Brian Tallerico
As a showcase of Pryor's talent and influence, Omit the Logic is undeniably fun. It just feels a little slight given the massive cultural influence of its subject matter.
PopMatters
J.C. Maçek III
Omit the Logic is more likely to omit laughter as it focuses on Pryor's false career starts, drug use, depression, multiple marriages and divorces, his struggles with MS, and the infamous incident in which the comedian set himself on fire.
Film Comment Magazine
Amy Taubin
The movie is packed with articulate people who knew Pryor well, but the clips of the Man himself will leave you weeping for more.
New York Times
Mike Hale
The film's inevitable compressions, made worse by the amount of empty, self-congratulatory celebrity blathering, mean that every Pryor fan will have omissions to complain about.
Village Voice
Alan Scherstuhl
Zenovich has assembled better-than-usual talking heads, all sympathetic even when dishing the worst bad behavior.
Black Girl Nerds
Mekeisha Madden Toby
If fans want more, they'll have to read the eye-opening autobiography, "Pryor Convictions." In the meantime, consider "Omit the Logic" a very hearty and worthwhile aperitif.
