André is an Idiot

"One of the most moving and profound cancer stories you will see."

"A riotously funny, painfully honest film about death."

"Most of us could never hope to be as smart as Ricciardi was, but the movie he’s left behind does everything in its power to ensure that we’re not as dumb as he was either."

"An intimate, offbeat portrait."

"A genuinely life-affirming film that not only pushes you to get a colonoscopy, but also teaches you how to go into that dark night armed with a chuckle."

"One of the saddest, boldest documentaries I’ve ever seen. It's also one of the funniest and most mundane — which is what makes it even more powerful."

"It’s strange to call a film about man staring down death a good time, but André Is an Idiot is designed to be just that."

"A valuable PSA and a quirky crowdpleaser about death."

"A brilliant, life-affirming documentary."

"(André) can’t be irreverent about his impending death forever, but it’s oddly uplifting to see him so committed to trying."

"Serves not only as a kick in the butt, so to speak... but also as a tribute to an unconventional San Francisco life."

"Tender but not cloying."

"Hilarious and heartbreaking."
