He's up and down, like most truly funny people. I suspect without knowing that he forced this movie through w/o a lot of vetting/bouncing ideas with other bright, funny people. The pre-release hype included comments by (allegedly) close colleagues of his that if he wants to do a shtick, he just does it, regardless of the comments/concerns of others.

If you believe you're infallible, you're gonna flop sooner or later, no matter how bright/funny/intelligent you are.

I first saw him on the Rodney Dangerfield Young Comedians Special -- had to be in the mid-80s. He was funny then, and he's still funny. I think his wit just exceeded his grasp on this one.
