Bert Kreischer: Razzle Dazzle

I was expecting an overworked special since everyone has had to wait 3 years to put out new stuff.

Yes there are his "clichés", or is "Bertisms" but it's well constructed and funny.

I know he is 50 and a comedian for a long time but what angers me about Bert is that deep down he has what it takes to became a worldwide famous comedian, an household name, and even though he is extremelly famoun in the US, he falls short in the rest of the world due to playing too much into his "frat boy" personna.

That's his identity, sure. But he should grow with it and the humour is still "I drink, my wife's a redneck, my kids are dumb"

Overall it's still a pretty funny special that very much exceeded my expectations, well done Bart!

Big big fan of Bert's I've seen all of his specials, he's a great podcaster and comedian but I was not a fan of this special, I really felt like he just wasn't ready to do this special. A lot of recycled jokes, not a whole lot of creativity or original stuff. I hate to leave this but it didn't get me going like his last specials. I think he should have waited another year to polish his jokes or come up with some new material. Bert feels the need to rush into releasing a special right away. The first 20 minutes he was sprinting through all these mediocre jokes I've heard several times from other comedians. I could go on but watch it for yourself, personally not for me. To each it's own.

Bert Kreischer is easily at the top of the index of least funny people relative to their fame. I don't want to say I despise Bert, because he seems genuine in a lot of ways outside of standup comedy, but this special is pretty terrible. My prejudices aside Bert against, Razzle Dazzle really feels like Bert phoned it in, reusing old jokes and harping on overexaggerated mediocrity of family story time. Normally I can stomach one of Bert's specials if I am pretty bored, but this was on another level that I could not finish it. Bert has done himself no favors if he believes this special while serve as pasturage for growing new fans. This special is a hard pass for me on a recommendation.

I've always been more of a Tom Segura fan and have always felt Bert to be mildly funny, but this special is off the charts hilarious. Truly really great standup, I have not laughed this hard in a long long time. Bert deserves recognition for being a master of the art form at this point because this is his best work yet.

His delivery, transitions and almost all new material give the special room for him to spread his wings and get away from the (very funny) machine story. This special proves unequivocally that he is actually a legit standup act and not a one hit wonder. Also I love that he puts out fewer specials than saturating the market with one a year like a lot of other comedians. Well done Brent Chrysler.

I watched with my girlfriend (who found it funny ) but I think this humour is probably suited for young adults. Nothing memorable in this special. Not bashing Bert; I am a fan of him. I hope we see some more sharper angles from him in the future ? One of the problems is a lot of people tune into his podcast with Tom, which is amazing . People eventually expect your comedy level to be more crisp and smoother as your podcast. It's kind of like watching your favourite baseball player hitting .300 and cranking 40 homers , and then the next season only hitting 20 (which is fine) but not to the level we expect.
