Women Aren't Funny

If you're going to make a movie about how people perceive that woman aren't funny... at least make it funny. There are lots of funny women in comedy, McFarlene isn't one of them, even though she got lots of funny women in the movie, to which she never took to her advantage. I'm still lost, as a fan of comedy this was still the worst documentary I have seen on Netflix. The only reason for positive reviews is seeing lots of comics people know.

Hail the likes of Joan, Wanda, Silverman, Amy Etc....but this is is pile of trash, and pretty sure I could take a camera out on a Friday night and film funnier stuff than this in a matter of hours.

Bonnie mcfarlane is not funny and very pushy person. Her husband had to make calls to get her on the stage. She forced another female comic to get her name on the funny female comic list. Bonnie needs to quit comedy if she is going to be pushy and needy.

She pretended to be a man so she could prove that people are not laughing at her jokes because she is a woman. But it turned out the fact that she is just not funny PERSON.

She has this much on her hand to waste on a movie. She should focus on writing some better materils instead.

In conclusion, Women Aren't Funny is a ill-intentioned AND ultimately underwhelming documentary, hindered by Bonnie McFarlane's pushy demeanor and lack of comedic talent. Her presence overwhelms the narrative, making it difficult for the film to effectively challenge stereotypes or celebrate the achievements of female comedians. While it raises important questions about gender and representation in comedy, McFarlane's approach leaves the documentary feeling disjointed and unconvincing.

It's a shame Ms. Mcfarlane chose to half-a** it. The myth of unfunny women could have been interesting. But she didn't explore the history of women in comedy or perhaps the psychological reasoning why women don't prefer women comics. You could have had a few panel discussions. And more Rich Vos is never the answer. And no Kathy Griffin? Odd.

She lacked confidence through the film and made it way more personal than it needed to be. And if she wanted to go that route why not talk about how she broke in and what her family/friends thought about it. And were they barriers? It's also strange that four of the five writers for the movie are men. Can't help a sister out? But the interviews are still fun and worth a few laughs

I thought this was going to be a rant by an angry woman but it wasn't. Not only is it not serious, it's not a documentary. It's a scripted movie that is intended to be funny and they succeeded. Watch it.

I love Vos and Bonnie. I know that is weird cuz I've never met them. But their podcast is hilarious, their comedy is great, and this movie is very well done for a first movie.

My favorite part is seeing Bonnie's butt in the weeds. It was amazing. Didn't JO to it but plan to.

The only thing I didn't like is how Bonnie doubts her skills, or the podcast, or her humor in general. I understand she's a chick and gets emotional bit Jesus it gets old. Vos is close minded, for sure ("No I'm not!") but that's prob why I liked this movie so much. Cuz you get to see the madness behind the scenes.

If you like Vos and Bonnie, definitely give this a shot. You'll probably love it, and it'll prob put you in a good mood.
