From the opening moments of the film, it is clear that with Don't Think Twice writer-director Mike Birbiglia has crafted a love letter to an art form, specifically improv. What makes the film truly special, however, isn't simply that it's a love letter, it's that it's a warts-and-all love letter. It is a love letter that offers up the best and worst moments of a relationship — the highs as well as the lows — and that still manages to convince an audience that this is an art form which can truly change someone's life.
Don't Think Twice is the tale of an improv group, The Commune, and one particularly important moment in the lives of its six members. Just as the group finds out that they're losing their home — the theater is shutting down — they also learn that Weekend Live, which is about as thinly veiled a stand-in for Saturday Night Live as is possible, is coming to scout them out. Nominal group leader, Miles (Birbiglia), was nearly (so he claims) cast on Weekend Live years prior, while the rest of the group members — Jack (Keegan-Michael Key), Samantha (Gillian Jacobs), Allison (Kate Micucci), Lindsay (Tami Sagher), and Bill (Chris Gethard) — hold out working there as a dream.
