Dane Cook was one of the biggest comedians in the world — selling out arenas, dominating comedy, and making millions. But behind that incredible success was a betrayal that sounds almost too crazy to be true.

Funny Money: The Dane Cook Story explores how Cook’s half-brother and former business manager, Darryl McCauley, embezzled at least $12 million from him while managing his finances.

In this review, I break down the documentary, Dane Cook’s rise to fame, his relationship with McCauley, the shocking financial betrayal, the investigation, and the questions that still surround the story.
