Amy Schumer's new netflix concert is out and on the positive note it's much better than her last horrible one. You know, the one where she wore a leather outfit and talked about her smelly feminine organs. She's pregnant now and more or less talks about that subject for the whole hour. Some of her observations are pretty funny, especially early on. But after a while it just gets OLD. Even the crowd gets quiet at times, like they're hoping dearly for anything to laugh at. I have nothing against Amy as a comedian but God, what a long boring show.
I know there's going to be an almost unending run of one-star reviews here, just because it's fun to trash Amy Schumer, but the first half of this is actually an improvement over her last special.
Schumer clearly has *some* comedic skills: whether, like so many of her past jokes, they've all been stolen from other people, I don't know (there ARE a bunch of postures and facial expressions in this one she seems to have lifted wholesale from Louis CK).
I think the problem is they are not in service to anything: she herself has nothing of any real interest, novelty or depth to say. The subject matter never once leaves herself, and generally just tends to return to the familiarly lazy remarks on her own slobbishness, guaranteed to arouse whooping "you go girl"s from her bovine crowd. There's not very many jokes, as such, and the ones there are aren't very funny.
The second half is where it really nosedives and she gets into her cringey NPC feminist talking points. Without her awful, awful, awful politics shoehorned in, this would have been a solid 4: poor but not irredeemable. But with them, she ruins any goodwill or willingness to hear her out, and so the whole special itself.
TLDR: I guarantee you will not laugh once.

So many people are looking at this movie in the wrong perspective. This has absolutely nothing to do with feminism or patriarchy or any other social issue. This is meant to be a comedy, and its not funny. That is just my opinion. I watched it, well as much as i could, and i just did not find it funny, at all. Not because shes a woman, but because the words that were spoken were. not. funny. Simple.
Amy Schumers comedy has never been my favorite but this special was funny. Alot more substance than previous concerts.
Look, I like Amy. I mean, before going into this Netflix special I had only seen her movies and her show, both had their good parts and their bad parts. This special was funny, heartfelt and actually kind of sweet. Basically everything I'm looking for. She made me laugh out loud, because at some parts I related and I felt seen!
I hardly ever leave a review but when I looked at this IMDb page I saw that she had received 2,4 stars and that just felt wrong. Because it was better than that. And for people to hate and to be negative just because that seems like the thing you should be proves that you didn't learn anything from the special.
Don't be negative, or else the shame wizard from Big Mouth will knock on your door.
