Matthew Broussard: Hyperbolic

In his hilarious and razor-sharp debut full-length comedy special, Hyperbolic, Matthew Broussard masterfully navigates a maze of topics, blending clever penmanship with unapologetic introspection. From his unique upbringing as a Southern Jewish Cajun to navigating life in New York City, Matthew shares side-splitting anecdotes about cultural quirks, family dynamics, and the absurdities of modern relationships. With mathematical precision and laser wit, he tackles everything from the nuances of anti-Semitism to the emasculation of dating a professional athlete. Whether dissecting the inefficiency of French phonetics, the upsides of maternal mental illness, or pharmaceutical origin stories, Broussard delivers a performance both intellectually engaging and snort-inducingly funny.

Directed by Jason Katz, James Webb, Matthew Broussard: Hyperbolic leans on a strong ensemble — Matthew Broussard — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 2024.
