    A great special for newcomers to Louis C.K.’s world. It’s a thoroughly entertaining 60 minutes of daring, ridiculous stand-up that will leave you wanting to go straight into his past catalog.

    It’s classic C.K.: superficially offensive but actually taking a kind of gleefully amoral route to morally defensible positions. And funny, too.

    It is a triumphant return to form for a man who may have lost a step at one point in his career, and even though he spouts jokes from an older face covered in small-rimmed glasses, Louis C.K. owns the Beacon Theater audience with humor and frankness.

    A strong hour of material performed with practiced expertise. .... The contrast between puerile bits about pissing and resonant reflections on slow-motion death is an effective one, enhancing the impact of each tactic in turn.
