one of my absolute favorites!
I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.
I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
5/24/18. OMG, Hari is absolutely funny. Like nerd funny. Like he just stands there and unassumingly throws out these hilarious lines throughout the stand-up. Watch it!
So I just finished this and I have to say, Hari Kondabolu is either a very insightful comic or utterly clueless. He complains about how "white people" can't differentiate between various ethnic groups, spends quite a bit on that, and then goes on to regurgitate stereotypes about "white people"; if this juxtaposition was intentional it's fairly clever, but somehow I don't think it was.We live in a time where a comedian can say whatever they want about "whites" without really incurring any risk to their career, so why should I be impressed by lame race jokes? While some of those jokes DID make me chuckle, overall I feel like his whole routine just wasn't that funny. It's great background noise, though. If you need to play something that you can just kind of ignore this fits the bill nicely.
Finally some good stand-up special on Netflix. I loved it! My cheeks hurt from laughing so hard.
