Helmed by "Saturday Night Live" alumna Laura Kightlinger, this hourlong exposé chronicles -- warts and all -- the life of comedian turned activist Randy Credico, an up-and-coming funnyman whose candor tanked his career. But the end of his showbiz days didn't stop him: He switched gears and became a mouthpiece for various causes, including the fight against New York's draconian drug laws. Credico's peers and ex-girlfriends weigh in with insights.

Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.
StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
ActuallyGlimmer The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.
Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
OoooDiane "60 Spins Around the Sun" is positively engrossing. Randy Credico is pretty out there, but he's one of the few people in this world who see injustice and get off their easy chairs and DO something meaningful about it. The interviews with Randy and the girlfriends are terrific -- Vanessa Hollingshead is especially engaging. It was also quite beautiful to watch the Mothers of the Missing joking about this eccentric guy who works so passionately to get their kids out of prison. Randy Credico and the filmmakers call our attention -- DEMAND our attention to racism and injustice -- and they show us how an ordinary citizen can make big changes in the world.
