Wait for Your Laugh Ratings & Reviews
Third Coast Review
Steven Prokopy
The heart and soul of the film belongs to Rose Marie, who is interviewed extensively for the film and has a seemingly endless supply of stories about all of her old pals and peers
Tampa Bay Times
Steve Persall
A portrait of an indefatigable entertainer emerges, restless when she wasn't working and fearless when she was.
Cleveland Plain Dealer
Mark Dawidziak
Befitting its subject, the documentary "Wait for Your Laugh" is a breezy and engaging whirlwind trip through the crowded life of a performer who pretty much embodies the show-business term "trouper."
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
Sincere tribute to the 94-year-old actress Rose Marie.
Butler's Cinema Scene
Robert W. Butler
As a recap of a monumental, astoundingly rich life, Wait for Your Laugh is a marvel.
Chicago Reader
Andrea Gronvall
Timing is everything in comedy, and according to this nostalgic documentary portrait of Rose Marie, she always knew when to jump to the next big thing.
Pittsburgh City Paper
Al Hoff
... her fight to control her own career and image, and to strive for success beyond "typical" female roles remains a contemporary struggle.
Arizona Republic
Randy Cordova
Basically, it feels as if you're sitting down with Rose Marie for 90 minutes while she talks about her life.
Los Angeles Times
Michael Rechtshaffen
A warm, affectionate smooch of a documentary tribute chronicling "the longest career in showbiz history."
Film Threat
Alan Ng
Wait For Your Laugh does what a biographical documentary needs to do-document the life of an important person for the sake of posterity.
SF Weekly
Sherilyn Connelly
With Rose Marie, you never had to wait long to laugh.
San Francisco Chronicle
Walter V. Addiego
On the whole, "Wait for Your Laugh" is a well-deserved and most enjoyable tribute to a great entertainer of the old school.
Film Journal International
David Noh
[Rose Marie] tells her story with salty, unaffected ease, and there is also some affectionate narration by her longtime friend Peter Marshall.
Variety
Dennis Harvey
"Wait for Your Laugh" pays fond tribute to a tireless trooper whom generations have known mostly as a wisecracking second banana often funnier than the bigger stars she supported.
The New Yorker
Richard Brody
[Jason] Wise's film is more than a tribute to her-it's a new setting within which, telling the story of her life, she performs again.
New York Times
Jason Zinoman
The heart of this movie is Rose Marie talking you through her own life with the same attention to pleasing the audience as she shows onstage.
The Hollywood Reporter
John DeFore
Though this anecdote-stuffed doc leaves us wanting more of her songs-and-gags routine, it has just enough clips for us to wish she could return to the stage as well.
Village Voice
Chuck Wilson
A disappointment.
