Still hapless, still deadpan, still cute...But if you saw "Punching the Clown" there's no compelling reason to see its sequel.

There's an endearing weariness to Phillips' persona. He's about as close to a punching bag as a person can get for much of the film.
February 23, 2017
Mr. Phillips's self-deprecating humor is amusing but not funny enough to give him the edge he needs to rise up and conquer.

The knowing satire "Punching Henry" may not amount to a lot in the end, but getting there is lots of fun.

Glum but smart comedy has some mature material.

The comedy in the film is biting and acerbic and sharply drawn from real life.

The result is endearing but also an incisive look at redemption and the fringes of fame.

It's the kind of observational humor that instills a knowing chuckle and nod of the head, as opposed to an all-out chortle.

Punching Henry features a fantastic supporting cast of comedians... and Phillips' low-key yet undeniable charisma keeps it from landing squarely in the Sad Bastard genre it otherwise circles, as does the fact that it's genuinely funny.

Sharply observed and understatedly amusing ...
