    Less than average, childish and politically correct humour, I cannot understand the good reviews.

    I am a pretty big fan of Bo Burnham but this show was extremely flat and stale. All of the songs basically sound the same with lame digital music tracks being used alongside Bo's nasally sounding voice. None of the songs are memorable. Also, I find it very strange that any negative reviews of this show have been deleted from this website, and look to not even be counted in the userI am a pretty big fan of Bo Burnham but this show was extremely flat and stale.

    Captures, with a frenzied and dextrous clarity, the unmoored, wired, euphoric, listless feeling of being very online during the pandemic. .... “Inside” is a virtuosic one-man musical extravaganza, and also an experimental film about cracking up via Wi-Fi connection while trying to make said one-man musical extravaganza—although, in the mediated age, when genres are twisted and mashed together, characterizing it feels almost beyond the point.

    A brilliant, maddening, and transformative piece of art-meets-comedy-meets-commentary.
