“Birdman” or (“The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance”) is a black comedy that tells the story of a washed up actor named Riggan, (Michael Keaton), in an attempt to revive his dying career and popularity, some studio executives came to him to reprise his role for the fourth time as ‘Birdman’ that previously  played to blockbuster status.  But Riggan has other plans, turning down the offer, he pursued his passion to become a better actor by starring and directing in a stage play he himself wrote.

Galifianakis – usually to be found in much broader comedies like The Hangover – is pitch perfect as Riggan’s long suffering agent and the play’s producer, trying to keep it all together is Jake, who is also Riggan’s best friend, warns him that he’s in the last chance saloon and that his play needs to be a hit to save his career. As Jake, he has his work cut out for him on every level. Of all the characters, Jake is probably the sanest – which was a welcome change for Galifianakis, who certainly knows his way around crazy.
