I wanted to but couldn't!
Good concept, poorly executed.
The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
Traditional comedy 'roast' where celebrities, comics and friends poke fun at actor Bruce Willis. Comedy Central Roast of Bruce Willis is definitely not bad i'll give you that just for a simple start but it's also just a bunch of A-list celebrities who are friends and family of the 'Die Hard' action hero and basically come in and they start to roast non stop and that gets a bit dumb and boring after a while? It's not like the worst thing that ever happened? But it's recycled humor and recycled humor? It's always the worst kind of humor or at least for the most part. (5/10)
This was by far the weakest comedy central roast. The host JGL, the roasters and the surprise Demi Moore entry failed to impress. The funniest guy was Dom Irrera. Jeff Ross' bit seemed to be abruptly edited. Norton was good to watch. But what the hell were the others doing? Even the audience seemed to be composed of just the Willis daughters and a ton of nobodys.
Right from the start, Levitt sets the (unfunny) tone for the show. He can be summed up with just one line. "Joseph Gordon Levitt is to this show what James Franco was to the Oscars."Most of the roasters are not funny at all. Everyone wonders why are they there and I was wondering why am I wasting my time watching this? They don't even know what a "roast" is, some mediocre random jokes is NOT roasting someone.The hour is saved by Edward Norton who does a great job at roasting Willis in a very sarcastic way. His jab at MCU movies and specially The Incredible Hulk may rub some (a lot of) people the wrong way but it was part of roasting Bruce Willis and fit perfectly.Jeff Ross, while being funnier than everyone else, was actually just OK when you think how bad everyone else besides Norton was. If everyone else sucks, then of course you gonna have some OK jokes look great too.All in all, I gave it 5 / 10, thanks to Norton and Ross for saving this otherwise train wreck of a "roast" show. If you are watching on a streaming service, save your time to avoid clingiest jokes and moments and just skip to Edward Norton and Jeff Ross parts.
This is great, these big egos are such great sports. Absolutely loved it!
