Nathan Flomm became a national joke after he gave up his stake in a hugely successful electric car start-up. 15 years later, he lives incognito in Martha's Vineyard, until one day he runs into his old boss. Larry David has become a household name by playing a fictionalised version of himself in the HBO sitcom Curb Your Enthusiasm. This feature length comedy is sadly nothing but a lazy and overstretched episode of his TV show. The film is not awful, but it offers exactly the same type of observational humour and features the same protagonist, who cannot let even the most minor grievance go without opening his mouth. Even some of the cast members are familiar from his show.
