It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.

It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

I see a lot of reviews of people who say they are fans. But if you truly love Jim's material, you can see that this special is just a money grab. Rehash, No real jokes. The bad rating is not because 'some people can't stand this kind of language', it is simply because this is a very lazy made stand up. I hope you didn't lose your edge Jim.

I watched this on my computer and after like 25 minutes I moved it to my 2nd monitor and decided to do something else primarily. The jokes are okayish, but not very original. There wasn't a single moment where I actually laughed or, you now, exhaled air through my nose loudly. I watched his TV show exactly once and turned it off after 10 minutes. It was pure garbage, non-funny and nowhere near the old Jim stuff. Of course there is a difference between a stand up and a weekly show (is it weekly? no idea). But then again he has writers for that show. Anyways, he seems more tame, maybe life wore him down. Maybe he has to do specials, but doesn't really want to. The party in Hollywood stuff where he met de Niro: Is it just me or did he tell this somewhere else already? Because I knew the part, I knew he would pretend to be a director, I knew his agent would jump in etc. Maybe he told this in some YouTube video, but that must've been at least 4-6 months old, because I didn't really watch any Jim stuff recently.Overall it was a 4/10, but he is still likable, so 5/10

Granted I haven't really been a fanboy here, but I have watched some of Jim Jefferies previous shows, and yes I have been quite amused by those. So when I found this 2018 "This Is Me Now" on Netflix, I did of course give it a chance.Well, I must start right off by saying that the spark is fading. This show was nowhere near his previous shows in intensity, in humor, in stage presence, or even in enjoyment. It felt like he was running on auto-pilot and was doing a half-hearted attempt at delivering jokes based on material which wasn't all that funny to begin with.I was only laughing twice throughout the entire show. Those times was during the scene with the son and the toilet, and the second time was with the Al Pacino segment.Aside from that, then this was a very bland experience. And I must admit that I was actually sitting with my phone and playing Uno on Facebook during the show, and just listening to him stumble about on the stage. Yeah, the show had that little appeal.

Sooo the good thing is Jim still does specials.. I thought he would pursue TV/film career more by now but he is still true to his roots. Or at least he's trying... The show was good overall but lacked a spark of sorts.. a mojo, if you will.. Jim just seemed to have lost the passion for the topics he talked about. I understand it is harder for him to find the zeal maybe partially due to the Jim Jefferies show where he just has to sift through a horrible amount of information and news and try and pick the most interesting or funny ones. How much involved in the production of the JJ show he is, I do not know, but it seems to wear him down a bit. Jim just doesn't seem like the day in, day out working kind of guy...
