In The Office David Brent was a laughing stock. Now, 13 years later we see a failed man in late middle age who still follows his dreams of being a pop star. Of course, his attempts at a world tour in Berkshire is very funny. He is as inadept with people as ever and his attempts at songwriting are hilarious. That is almost a tragedy because he isn't even really bad. However, in this film Brent really is more of a tragic figure who looks back at his lifw which was a complete failure. Although funny, this film is bitter sweet entertainment.
