“The Last Laugh” (** out of four) was a tedious comedy about an over-the-hill manager (Chevy Chase) who reunites with his first comedian client (Richard Dreyfuss) who persuades him to go out on the road for one final comedy tour as they rekindle old memories and share humorous stories together on the road. Both Dreyfuss and Chase work well together and do what they can to squeeze all the humor out of a paper-thin script and story but a little of this fails to go a long way. Robert De Niro played a similar comic in the very similar “The Comedian” back in 2016.
