Nov 27, 2017I came to watch a comedy from what I heard to be a praised comedian but wound up watching someone who thinks she is funny complain about stupid things and if she ever gets to the punch line, it takes too long or you could see it for miles beforehand.

Oct 22, 2015This is neither guffaw-worth nor eye opening. She is not funny. I watched 10 min of this shrill excuse for comedy. Hey do you like Margaret Cho, Chelsea Handler with a dash of Sarah Silverman? Does anybody? No seriously, thats not a rhetorical question. She is destined to be the Dane Cooke of comedy: a low brow, slow cooking miasma of poor comedic taste and soon to be dated humor.

Sharply written and delivered with an acute self-awareness.

It recalls some of the better standup specials of the past decade. It hits on those R-rated topics she’s good at addressing and it lets her weigh in on the problems women face in Hollywood.

Schumer's impression of the personal trainer [is] a great routine, one that's matched only by a subsequent ode to semen (during which she does a priceless shout-out to Oprah Winfrey), as well as a climactic monologue about sexual positions that features some pretty uproarious audience participation. It's during these sections that Schumer's humor is most alive--truly transgressive in ways that confront, rather than winkingly tweak, the chauvinistic prejudices she's targeting. The rest is scattershot in the way of a very talented comic still honing both her points and her live-act presence.
