Marlon Wayans: God Loves Me

Did you people not read the info before watching his performance?

Even in his interviews beforehand, he specifically said he would talk about his three friends lives in correlation to his!

He actually said the reason why he's doing a set about it, is because a comedians theme has to come from somewhere personal, and he said it was personal to him because he has a close relationship with all three of them, Chris, Will and Jada... and he was hurt when he saw "the slap" happen.

Everything he said was laid out in order and ended with the perfect moral to his story. Next time you watch a movie or read a book, please check out the info before-hand and don't diss someone's artwork when you don't even realize what it is about.

OMG... An entire show about the Will Smith vs. Chris Rock slap just isn't funny!

What a waste of talent, his last special was so good, energetic, funny and brutally honest, I was just expecting so much more. It feels like one joke that gets spun out so thin, it's bound to fall apart. For me that happened about 10 minutes in. Maybe the energy of his preparation for the Richard Pryor biopic was channeled in his previous special and I just expected too much. We'll have to wait for his next special to get the answer...

Although Will Smith gave us some great entertainment, he's doesn't deserve an hour long redemption special, because he couldn't take a joke about his bald wife being a great cast for the next GI Jane movie!

Marlon is still a great guy with tons of energy. That's why I still gave it a D minus/4 stars review, but as a fan of stand up comedy my advice is to skip this set!!

This is a standup unlike anything you have ever seen before. It's actually a documentary about a specific event that happened involving three people, their back stories, reactions from white and black audience with in-depth cultural explanations, historical references that put things into perspective, alternate storylines from multiverse, different variations of reenactments with different ratios of truth:joke, relationship advices, impressions of people that were not involved but somehow help portray mindset of people that were, following the lines of stupid and shallow desires to come to realisation of true desires and needs... all done with just a spoken word with a lot of subjective, introspective and very personal inputs from Marlon Wayans.

This was disappointing... the entire 59 min special is about one event, one issue, one moment that is NOT about Marlon.

After 20 minutes of the same joke, it felt about time to move onto a second topic, another event, another laughable moment. But, like farmer Jack with Daisy his prized cow, the joke is milked until every last drop is out. Even though you might've been tired of milk (the joke) after 20 minutes, here comes some more.

Admittedly, there are some laughable moments. A few funny events/scenarios, a few expressions that make the special watchable. But, it needs more variety!

References to legacy Waynes shows are always welcomed, but at moments it felt like the references were aimed at creating a platform for guaranteed applause, adulation or appreciation.

Marlon is a great comedian, great expressionist, great at generating moments to smile and reflect, but... how shine was a little low here, and hidden behind stories of someone else's trauma. But...... have a look and decide for yourself.

I don't understand where all the hate is coming for this special. This was brilliant. Yes on the surface, haters gonna say it was only about the slap, but it was so much more. First it was actually LOL hilarious every damn minute, and give a very good take away about not being envious and trying to be your best you despite what you think is fair, cause sooner or later you'll realize you're in the best spot you should be.

On the other side, what Chris did in his special was a few chuckles and not address the issue in an appropriate way. Because it wasn't just about the black folks, it was a subject that he could've made a big deal of. About people being so offended about everything, and actually meaning something to balance out between keeping in check wrong doers, without harassing people that didn't deserve it. Anyways that ship had sailed.

Stand up should be funny and should say something, Chris's wasn't funny and while did try to say something, Marlon's special just killed it. Definitely worth the watch!
