It's hard to feel sorry for a guy who banked millions for not hosting "The Tonight Show" anymore, but it's also fascinating to see a man this compulsively driven to get back in front of people and tell jokes, to hear the laughter, to soak in the applause. full review

While a lot of geography is covered, as a concert film, Conan O'Brien Can't Stop is decidedly thin entertainment. full review

It's ... entertaining, not to mention revealing about the emotional toll exacted upon people who, in O'Brien's words, "feed their bone marrow to the wood chipper that is television." full review

Just as he promised, amazing things happen. full review

Meta-irony can get a guy who's still grinding an ax only so far. full review

Forget talk shows; Coco should keep touring and making films like this. full review

O'Brien admits he ended this moment in his life knowing himself a little better. We feel the same way. full review

Partly about the making of the stage show and partly about the anger and compulsion underlying the making of it, the movie is often very funny. And when it's not, it's revelatory. full review

It's nice to know that the son of a lawyer and a microbiologist can get into Harvard and make something of himself. full review

Full of unenlightening snippets and blithe but banal asides, what the movie is missing is edge. full review

The film, like the tour, will satisfy the Conan cravings of hardcore fans the most, and prove an enjoyable enough diversion for the rest. full review

Everyone laughs at the boss's jokes, which are incessant to the point of irritation, but actual levity is in short supply. full review

Seeing his life from the inside, the impulse to judge him fades. You would not want to trade places. full review

In the aptly titled Conan O'Brien Can't Stop, we witness a performance addict with something to prove. full review

The documentary makes the case that O'Brien is too passionate, too complex, too driven to simply snap out of it. full review

If "Conan O'Brien Can't Stop" is consistently watchable, it isn't especially funny, nor does it give any deeper insight into its star than you might get from seeing his late-night shows. full review

Substantially more than a vanity project if less than a three-dimensional portrait of the human stick figure with the shock of orangey hair. full review

There are solid laughs and meta-laughs to be had in "Conan O'Brien Can't Stop,'' but the movie is most worthwhile as a portrait of a celebrity in mid-hissy fit. A creative, self-aware hissy fit, but still. full review

What we are seeing is a man determined to vindicate himself after a public humiliation. People attend his shows, cheer him, like him. That proves something, doesn't it? full review

The whole thing becomes a sort of "Song of Myself" for needy multimillionaire comics at work and play. full review
