A very compelling movie that had me quite tearful on several occasions. Wonderful acting from the entire cast.
Everything about this movie was done perfectly, from the amazing cast/acting to the masterful storytelling, and above all, just the story by itself is astonishingly satisfying.
Although I've watched this movie in late 2021, it is undoubtedly one of the best I've ever seen.
One of very few films that are perfectly casted, with great writing and great music. Don't know how many times I've seen this, but it never gets old. The chemistry between Deniro and Grodin is on the level of Riggs and Murtagh in Lethal Weapon.
I thought it was good. It is more of a commentary than a standup show.
For the first 30 minutes, he is making jokes, but then he goes into the issues and public criticism he has received from the transgender community. It seems like an honest take from his side, trying to explain his views and beliefs. Unfortunately, it seems the transgender community has taken this special as him trying to "have the last word". If you aren't okay with him talking about the subject for over an hour, while dropping some jokes throughout, then this won't be for you. In the end, I feel it does deliver a powerful message, that shows where he is coming from, whether you agree with his stance will likely vary between each person.
Jokes apart the live crowd was pretentious. This show wasn't even funny.
Dave is transphobic. Good, that he admits this by himself. He definitely lacks empathy for trans-people.
This isn't his best work.
This was personal for him and something he felt he had to do.
It isn't, however, high on laughs. As a consequence of needing to clear his chest and speak to criticisms, it feels drawn out. And as somebody who does care either way about much of the subject matter, it felt labored.
It ends on a sad and poignant story. Chapelle's own feelings and the telling of the story came across - to me at least - as a touch contrived and had a vague whiff of insincerity lurking in there.
As a stand up special, this cannot stand next to something like Bill Burr's last 3 or Chris Rock's first 3 and be considered strong. It just isn't in the same ballpark.
Dave has made a resurgent career on speaking wisdom under the guise of stand up. Until now, he was excelling. This one just didn't tie together.
6/10
Yes Dave is the GOAT, but this was not his best. I would not watch this with an expectations. Only watch this when you are extremely I mean extremely bored. You are not missing out on anything.

This is a predictable and cheesy sports movie... so why did I enjoy it? I guess because it is similar to The Longest Yard, and Keanu Reeves is so likable. I was surprised this was his first movie as a lead after The Matrix, and due to recent events with the Washington Redskins I knew it was a good time to watch this.
Great movie with some great perfomances and very realistic.Reccomend this to everyone 7.7/10

After having sex with his wife, you can clearly see the outline of Matt Damon’s underwear under his nightshirt
Pretty sure they didn’t have briefs back then :)
A story about two men and a woman written by two men and a woman in which the feminine gaze prevails, the "truth" is assumed from the beginning, so the other "versions" seem somewhat unnecessary. But there is a perfection in the representation of a medieval society so masculinized that it's difficult to argue, and it has an extraordinary contribution in the very intelligent soundtrack by Harry Gregson-Williams.
Matt Damon is such a terrible choice for this role, I genuinely laughed several times.
While I think the subject matter is rather dull, this movie could have been done a lot better.
I think the idea is that her perspective is supposed to confirm the true nature of the event, which off course is what it is. Imagine the opposite, the story of a woman who lied about the rape. Just unimaginable today.
Still, even though I had little doubt about it, I still wanted to see her perspective to confirm. And confirmation I got. The need to see and finish her story makes me think the anticipation is what the movie was aiming for.
Apart from that maybe the movie tries to show how complicated these things can be sometimes. Small differences in perception could add up to a different story.
This movie doesn't have a story, it has an incident that runs for 2 hours and 30 mins
the way of showing the perspective of each one of the 3 characters felt repetitive and boring after a while
fight scenes were very bad and poorly choreographed.. close ups and unnecessary camera shakes
I didn’t need to see the movie from three different perspectives it’s just a way to drag out the movie. It was good to see the hairstylist from Joe Dirt finally get back to work. I see Dr. Facui was the technical advisor for all things medical keeping things 100% accurate. Great fight scene with Matt and Adam otherwise waste of time.
Well…another new Ridley Scott’s movie with pretty fine even great cinematography and lack of interesting story..even boring.
I have no idea what the point of this movie is. I’m sure there’s some woke muh-toxicmasculinity message in there…. And I’m gonna let you finish… But… Matt Damon’s mullet is the real MVP here.
Soulless, corporate regurgitate of the original animated film. The casting seemed off, as if the suits decided to look at a list of popular actors and actresses at the time and slap them in the movie (and I love all those who participated in the movie... just not like this). The pacing was just okay. Not a fan of realistic looking talking animals, it just... Feels very goofy. All the musical numbers were done in such a way as to seem casual and playful, but at the cost of them actually being enjoyable songs. The CGI actually looked decent for the most part. Just altogether a disappointing movie.
And to be really nitpicky, the Himalayan Brown Bear does in fact go into hibernation. I'm sure it's fine for the kids, however.
A documentary that remains halfway through the Bee Gees' career. There is a lot of music and good pace, but it turns out to be a mediocre approach, which only sparsely addresses the problems of alcoholism, drugs and personal disputes. The virtue is to publicize the previous music of the Bee Gees, before disco music; the fault is to offer an incomplete, kind view that avoids talking about the negative aspects of fame.
