    Ouch. Used to be a fan of Amy, but this was a very cringey special. At some point her set ups stop working, because you know the joke will probably end with "I have a lot of sex."

    Self-deprecation about weight and looks based on standards she claims not to subscribe to. We've heard it already. Not smart. I still deeply appreciate her though.

    Did she even prepare a set? She sounded like any drunk girl at a bar. Profoundly DULL and unfunny. Nowhere near the level of quality of her TV show. She is going to alienate her fans if she continues this way.

Some of her jokes did not make sense. How did she know her special lady parts had an offensive odor? Is she limber enough to stick her head down there? Or was the smell strong enough to clear an elevator? If it's that bad, somebody needs to get tested for an infection. In the last 40 years I have had zero female friends mention having a vagina odor problem. 100 women surveyed. Survey says . . . XXX. I hung in there despite this rough start, but things never got better. Amy was not funny. Which makes me sad because I love to laugh. I'm old enough to have seen Bill Hicks live in a tiny club. The drinking jokes are getting old, too. Blackout jokes apropos of nothing fell flat. I hope she sobers up, grows up, and retools her act. She even burped loudly! I spent some time with my neighbor's 3 year old grandson this morning, and he did the same thing, right before he told me he had to poop and I handed him back to Grandma. Expand

    Unorganized and sloppy presentation of material. Relies on shock factor and self deprecation to get a reaction from the audience and doesn't bring anything remotely interesting to this special. Really dumb

Now famous and successful, it's as if little effort is required to please her core base who will continually laugh at material once edgy, shocking and quite funny but now simply disappointing. Amy's set included excessive time on her smelly vagina, diarrhea and cum shooting. Between sex and body comedy she mentioned the tragic shooting of two women at a theater showing her movie. Again, instead of making a connection with the audience, she simply implied gun owners were stereotypically all hillbillies living in trailers and the law allowed blind people to buy guns. She then concludes that if she can talk about men shooting cum upon her breasts then she could talk about guns. I once heard Patton Oswald talking about a set he did at a casino in which he merely had to stand on the stage and the crowd went wild. He didn't even have to tell one new joke; the fans just loved seeing him. Miss Schumer, it seems, has discovered this truth already. If this had been her first set, she would be unknown. On stage she talked about a man trying to shoot cum upon her moving hand. Let's just all hope Amy Schumer doesn't continue to miss the mark and remembers her salad days (well, salad with pasta on top) and gets back to being the great comic we all know she can be. Expand

    I love stand-up comedy but this was just horrid. The audience barely laughed. She really needs to spend more time writing jokes that are funny and not just about female anatomy. I used to like her a lot but now she is just pandering to the Tumblrina crowd and it's just not worth anyone's time.

Just a bunch of of lame "jokes" revolving around sex acts and juices coming out of every possible orifice (one example: story about her taking a long, liquid dump w/her boyfriend sitting just outside the bathroom. How old, tired and unfunny is that?). Fine if it was funny, but it wasn't. Didn't laugh once. Audience had the same reaction: smatterings of light laughter, but don't remember even one outbreak of applause or ovation. So bad, I actually paused this show half way through to watch Jim Gaffigan's "Cinco" (very funny - and BTW family-friendly clean). Saw the second half later, but it was no better.
    Like i said, I've been a Scumer fan since before she was really famous, but over the last couple of years she seems to let her success go to her head in a lot of ways and has stopped really trying. "Leather" is very indicative of that.

    The last time I saw that much leather it was still on the cow. She's never been too impressive... replete vulgarity, sort of like a white, female Martin Lawrence; probably a big turn-on for the low-information audience, but I tend to enjoy comedy that tries a little harder. She's one of those acts that'll be gone long before anyone really notices.

    I liked Amy's earlier stuff but this special lacked the "special" OK we get it you have a loose vagina and can be just as vulgar as the next guy but make it funny. This wasn't funny it was a flop and torture to sit though...well skimmed through after 15 mins of the same vagina joke. This routine is more evidence that Schumer is a one trick pony. Don't blame twitter trolls blame the lame act.

    I never came close to cracking a smile. Five minutes of discussing her privates and its smell made me realise why she doesn't get much. It did not get better. If you want to watch a plus size female talk dirty in a boring and seriously non-funny way, then this is for you. After 20 minutes, I had enough and wanted to look for reruns of campaign speeches.

    I love raunchy edgy and dark comedy but this fits in all categories except under comedy. The crowd overreacts to sub-par amateur comedy premises. Just dirty topics with no real pay-off. To add insult to injury the audience freaks out over it. It's a very surreal and strange set, if you want comedy turn away.

I go in not knowing how it's going to be and come out with my own thoughts about it. Which is the best way to truly enjoy something in my opinion because you're not sitting through the whole show expecting it to be bad. Now you may look at my score for Amy Schumer: The Leather Special and assume I'm some type of "troll" trying to spread hate for the comedian. I understand. Most people when they enjoy a movie,game, etc they want to protect it by fighting back any negative thoughts others will have.

    But do try to understand not everyone will share the same opinions as you. After all that's what makes us human and unique in some way and I personally think negative reviews we will all receive in life one way or another will help us grow and better ourselves in the future for success. If you ignore what's bad about your work sooner or later you might fail as people will seek better actors,products,etc.
    So I hope Amy Schumer learns from what people have to say and improve her work down the road.

    Now when I first watched Amy Schumer: The Leather Special I was expecting it to be decent. A 3/5 stars at best. Usually what most comedy stand up shows will be gaven from me on Netflix other than Dave Chappelle was a 4/5 and Gabriel lglesias was a 5/5. Because their shows was like a roller coaster ride of laughter with some cool down parts to relax and enjoy the story they have to say.
    With The Leather Special it felt like I was on a kiddie ride with a person sitting next to me complaining how bad her junk smelled or anything to do with her sex life every 20- 45 seconds Which as a guy,I don't enjoy to hear. It's not funny but cringeworthy. Did not find the show amusing one bit. I even had to restart the special and ask my wife to watch it to see if it was just a male thing and she find the show gross and the way Amy tries to react a scene is weird.
    Also each new bit she starts is related to what she was saying minutes ago which the jokes doesn't stick.. She brought nothing new to the table. Now most people can pull sex jokes,and Amy may have been able to do it in the past but this time around I think she needs to work on her jokes and be more prepared next time.

Watch Amy Schumer's Comedy Central Show or Trainwreck if you want to laugh and experience how good her timing can be.

Even when Amy goes into a political rant about blind people owning guns the punchline inevitably had to be about her **** animals, which in-turn was about how many disgusting men she has slept with. It's third-wave feminism at its worst.
    Amy Schumer is a funny, talented comedian, but it seems she has steered or had others around her steer her into a pigeon hole. She needs to step away from her image being the pillar of her act. She is better and smarter than this.

    The jokes were extremely shallow and unrelatable. It was truly a pain to sit through.

    We get it, Amy. You're a fat whore who is proud of being a fat whore, good for you. Try write some new material that doesn't cater to the casual female comedy fan and you might have more than just those women supporting you.

    She seemed awkward and unsure of herself. I usually find Amy hilarious but not today. You'd think now that she's rich and famous she could take her time and write something hilarious and thoughtful. Each show should be better than the last. Hopefully she'll learn from this. The leather special was not funny and not worth watching.

    She is absolutely awful and completely unfunny. Blows my mind that netflix wasted money giving her a special, worst 'comedian' of all time in my opinion. Is she trying to appeal to fat SJW's or something? I'll start boycotting any company that gives this awful person money (budweiser, gap and netflix come to mind)

This special, though, is many orders of magnitude worse than her sketch comedy show.

    After being slammed for so many things in the media, so many stupid blunders, plus being a shameless slut-comic who has been regularly accused of stealing many many jokes, which either means she is a lazy thief or a lazy joke writer who touches on the lowest common denominator of topics that any raucous slutty female comic would also touch on(in her stand up, mostly), you think Amy would really put a lot of effort in this special. It comes off as though she barely cares. It feels like an awkward money grab. She gets on stage and forces out silly sounds, tired, disgusting jokes that aren't original or very funny, and just gives us the same old meaningless Amy Schumer.

    In the world of Joe Rogan, Dave Chappelle, Whitney Cummings, Louis CK, Bill Burr, Aziz Ansari, Hart, Gaffigan, Burress, Gervais, and Silverman, this special is a huge waste of time.

    GO WATCH: We Are Miracles by Sarah Silverman if you want to see a hilarious, intelligent, classy woman do amazing comedy that transcends any other show in a unique Silverman way. (P.S. I don't 100% agree with either of these women, but I respect Sarah's convictions and comedy 100x more.)

    Watch the specials back to back, Amy, if you read this, and just realize that we aren't trolling you, your comedy is actually just tired and **** Good luck climbing back from this one.

That said, there seems to be a kind of sound barrier that comedians have to go through once they experience a great deal of success. They either keep their edge and grow with the material or they begin to flounder, relying on a rehash of earlier bits that connected with audiencesl. Amy Schumer's leather special seems to suffer from that. How much more interesting would it have been for her to be honest and vulnerable about dealing with fame and fortune how it changes people. There has to be tons of humor to be found there, but instead she doubles down on drunk slut persona which, like with ACTUAL drunk sluts, is funny at first but gets old really fast. I hope that she can let her material mature and take on some more sophisticated nuances. She is very talented and funny so it is a little disappointing seeing her take the safe route with this special. It's okay to not always be the train wreck. Chris Farley got trapped in that persona and it contributed to his downfall. Expand

What made the special even less funny was the fact that she wore a skin tight leather suit. She looked like she was about to go scuba diving. Amy is built like a sack of dirty laundry. She should stay away from garments that hug curves. I don't want it to sound like i'm saying, "women must be pretty". NO!!! I don't care how ugly a male or female performer is. As long as they do a good job. If a male came out in a skin tight leather suit while he is obviously not in skin tight leather suit "shape", I would be equally disgusted.
