Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.

How wonderful it is to see this fine actress carry a film and carry it so beautifully.

This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

"Demetri Martin. Person." is actually a fairly motivating 42 minutes for aspiring comedians, because it shows that you really do not need too much talent to become famous these days. Demetri Martin, an Emmy nominee for writing on Conan O'Brien's show, has turned into a stand-up comedian and here we see his program from almost 10 years ago. First of all, let me say that 40 minutes is really short and I feel sorry for the people who paid money for this, especially those who saw him live during this show unless this is a best-of. But I think it's the entire thing. Then, another criticism, it's just very rarely funny. Martin tries to score with his boy-next-door approach, but there really isn't a lot under this surface. I also cannot really see much musical talent in him and the ending is pretty cringeworthy when his relatives enter the stage in weird costumes. I mean I totally did not expect lengths like these in such a short show. Still, I must say I am glad this did not run any longer. I cannot say at all that this little recording got me interested in the artist here. Not recommended and I am shocked to see he's still having a career 8 years later.
