ThiefHott Too much of everything

ScoobyWell Great visuals, story delivers no surprises

Dynamixor The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

Jemima It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

classicsoncall Not much love on this board for this Jerry Seinfeld Netflix special. To be honest, I haven't seen any of his prior stand-up specials, so there's no comparison I can make. I thought 'Seinfeld', the TV show was a blast once it got beyond the first season. After that I became a regular viewer.This routine takes place at 'The Comic Strip', the New York City club where Jerry got his start in 1976, working for hamburgers and loving every minute of it. His observations about every day life contain humor because the stuff he zeroes in on is so mundane yet so true to one's personal experience. I'd have to agree with other posters though, this was somewhat of a low energy show, and it didn't feel like a whole lot 'new' was presented here.But hey, it's Jerry Seinfeld, and if you've had all you can take of the screamers and vulgar mouthed 'comedians' working today, this special is passable enough to while away an hour or so. You could do worse with your time.

sanabeer Jerry Seinfeld is no doubt one of the original kings of clean comedy and we remember him for this stand-ups pieces from Seinfeld. Even his special, post Seinfeld was tight. However, this offering from Jerry doesn't even come close.Jerry is aging and that is no secret. However, it is evident from the lack of energy in his routine. Jerry has tried to transition to the seasoned comic routines that the likes of George Carlin specialized in, where the comics talk about their experiences a lot and crib about everything. However, without the aggression of Carlin and the comic relevance of Louis CK, this particular stand-up is more of a miss than a hit. Most of the special focuses on his experiences and only a few punch lines are funny. And those are the jokes from several previous specials. Some of the lines lack humor to the extent of making you cringe. People used to say the Jerry's comedy was for the sheep and I was one of them. His mainstream comedy has transitioned into an unfunny narrative that is selectively laced with mild humor. Watch it for Jerry, if you have to. If you miss it, you wouldn't be missing much. If like me, you want to remember Jerry in a different light, avoid watching at any cost.

O2D Jerry Seinfeld was never funny, that's a fact. His sitcom was funny because Larry David and several other people who are actually funny wrote it. That's how the industry works. Only the worst comedians can have success on television. Romano, Leno, Degeneres, O'Donnell, Roseanne, I could list them all day. Can you name a good comedian who had a sitcom last more than one season? No you can't. If you are surprised this special isn't funny, you haven't been paying attention to life.

MrBobWhite I really like Seinfeld and I love Seinfeld the TV show. But this special really disappointed me simply because most of the jokes(70% in my rough estimate) are old material. I am talking about jokes from Seinfeld the TV show. I do understand that this is special is about his history but I can't help to think he should have included way more new material.
