    I have no idea how this woman is a comedian, I made it 50% of the way through the special before the cringe forced me to turn it off. . . There wasn't a single laugh the entire time. Like south park said its literally her saying vagina (or a variation) the entire time.

    FFS The most uncomfortable 57 minutes of my life. she just yells "pusay" "pusay" "pusay" "Vagina" "Vagina" "Vagina" "I'm a slut" "I'm a siut" the whole time.

    To be honest, I fell asleep about halfway through this. It's that boring. What isn't impotent attempts at shock or gross-out "comedy" seemed to me to be jokes poached from other comedians. Watching your toenails grow is more entertaining and less off-putting than this bucket of pit-bull drool.

    Ripped off a lot of material from other comedians in this. She is the modern Carlos Mencia. Just stealing everyone else's jokes. Hope she gets sued into the ground

    The Leather Special is obscene, gross, nasty--but none of that matters. What matters is how unfunny Schumer is. Her cadence and delivery and content makes her show very cringingly bad. It was very difficult to watch her bomb her way through the entire special. I hate seeing anyone be embarrassed.

    cheap, lazy humor. She can't joke about anything but nasty sex and female hygiene. So boring. People just like her because they're told they have to or they're not a feminist. Good Lord, please bring us more real female comics.

    Terrible. Un-bloody-believable that a San Francisco 'critic' gave this 100%. It's embarrassing, cringe worthy trash. Yikes. What a pig. Do yourself a favor and go clean your toilet instead of watching this.

    If she had made as many funny jokes as much as she swore I would have called it comedy. Instead, it has the label of "white girl complaining about her sorry existence". Don't recommend it at all.

    I’ve been to funnier funerals. All the jokes were vagina and penis related. She keeps painting the narrative that it’s easy for her to get laid. There are non stop attacks on men.

I figured, "It can't be THAT bad. I liked Trainwreck." Ladies and gentlemen, this "special" was awful. I watched the entire thing. I didn't crack a single smile. Not because I'm in a bad mood or that's just my personality. It's just that none of what she was saying warranted a smile! 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.

    Since when did COMEDY turn into a political agenda? Amy scummer should be ashamed. Burn you nasty Bit*h burn. People like this feel no shame, so she needs to be silenced.

    Who didn't LOVE Amy Schumer before realizing that she steals all of her material from other comedians' acts. Disappointment for sure. The Leather Special is no exception. So much of it is directly stolen (and poorly/sloppily executed) that I wouldn't be surprised if not 30 seconds of it was original.
    This would be a waste of five minutes, if you could even stand it that long.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I watched the show after seeing reviews on youtube. I watch very little stand up anymore because I find most stand up performers dumb and unfunny. So I watched this show after smoking a fat joint because I thought it might be funny because it was so dumb. It turned out just to be dumb. Her jokes are either crude references like her **** stinking. Would it be funny if I got up on stage and said my ass stinks? Most people would say, "Go wash your ass you dirty grub." The other jokes are like someone else wrote them and then she tried to memorize them and screwed them up not really understanding or living the situation. Like when she talks about blacking out then regaining consciousness. I forgot how she worded it, but she messed it up like she really didn't comprehend what she was saying. Maybe I should do some mushrooms and watch it? Hell, even tampon commercials are funny on shrooms.… Expand

    If you want to see a sweaty, gross pig, parading around in leather clothes that doesn't fit her, chugging a bottle of liquor while talking about how gross her vagina is, then this is the comedy special for you. If not, I suggest you just avoid this train wreck.

    Ewwww. Just Ewwww. This should be the new react to replace two girls and a cup. It was awkward when she was younger. Now to see a 50 year old rub herself while talking about her "smells" is just gross. How can the critics be so out of touch?

    Libertarian here... this is not a politically motivated review... Big fan of Amy Schumer, but this concert was just not up to par. Shocking just doesn't always mean funny. Maybe some "Trolls" were invested knocking her, but every fan who watched knows this was not her best work. Watch Amy Schumer's Comedy Central Show or Trainwreck if you want to laugh and experience how good her timing can be.

    Big AS fan, but this special was horrible. Old, tired sex jokes. Unorganized and sloppy as someone else put it(and true) The gun thing was out of place. Seemed uncomfortable and disconnected. I'd recommend to her that she take a break from the light and work on some newer material

    I used to like Amy a lot but this is definitely her worst work. She stole a lot of her jokes too. I was able to recognize at least 2 jokes used before by other comedians. I believe Metacritic's score is extremely inaccurate. The user reviews completely contrast them.

    Amy was at her best in the Seinfeld show Comedians In Cars etc, because Seinfeld was in it and he's naturally funny and can write, but he should have hauled her away in the trunk while he had the chance. Thanks for nothing, Jerry.

    Wow, this is horrible. Comedians typically start off heavy and really funny. Amy seems to lost her comedy skilz as she tips up on the scale. Just say'n.

    She’s absolutely as funny as she was two years ago, which was pretty darn funny. But the humor--most of it revolving around sex, body issues and relationships--feels dated.

    Ironically, the dirtier it gets, the less daring it feels. Part of the problem is that she doesn’t drop in enough context from her life of late, and the material feels like it could have come from a set three years ago.

    It's pretty much 85 percent sex jokes. The good news is that all the sex jokes are very funny! And even when Schumer turns her attention elsewhere, she still kills it. [10 Mar 2017, p.62]
