Comedy. Drama When you graduate college you easily sashay into the world of adulthood, start a career, and get serious, right? Wrong. Marnie has left college, but not her drinking habits and her bad taste in bad men. What's more, Marnie can't seem to find a permanent job. It would be sad if it weren't so funny.

United Kingdom	Xan Brooks The Guardian	"The great American indie movie is not dead, it seems (...) Despite its modest, meandering style, 'Funny Ha Ha' knows exactly where it's going (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Robert Koehler Variety	"Besides being a surefire fest item, the film could have a bracing effect on adventurous auds and young filmmakers."	POS
United States	Marrit Ingman Austin Chronicle	"'Funny Ha Ha' is often offhandedly funny, and Bujalski has a knack for letting scenes build and then cutting out abruptly, duplicating the flow of a life in flux (…) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Scott Tobias AV Club	"Once the film's relaxed, confident rhythms start to take hold, [its] DIY plainness becomes an asset"	POS
United Kingdom	David Jenkins Time Out	"The film’s pleasures – and there are many – are similar to those enjoyed during a night in a bar with friends when the conversation flutters naturally between the mundane, the fascinating, the hilarious and the sad"	POS
