Iliza: Confirmed Kills

Obviously intelligent woman delivers a lot a of moments that make you think , but nothing that makes you laugh. Based on this I would say she's more suited to be a motivational speaker versus a comedienne. Came across as perpetually angry , other comics , male and female have similar delivery styles and have been hilarious. Unfortunately that's not the case here. Somewhat preachy, heavy on the feminism. Might be our demographical differences, but nowhere on this hour seventeen minute journey did I find myself laughing. Made a good start, thought she would build upon her opening bit. But that was the funniest part of the entire thing.

I am a man and I am admitting I was found of this girls news spoof show and I found thus on Netflix and thought I would try it I found her hilarious and very sexy myself she is a feminist but who cares really shes a great comic and I found the shark tank bit hilarious if your looking for good comedy try this show

Now, I have never heard of Iliza Shlesinger before I stumbled upon this stand-up comedy show on Netflix.

I will say that she is funny and she definitely has a very energetic and truly magnetic presence on the stage. With an abundance of energy, she did feel quite at home on the stage.

Her material had some good jokes, however there just was a bit too little variety in the topics in the material for my liking. And that ultimately lead to this as being a mundane and mediocre stand-up comedy show for me.

The whole show is fallacious, but in a funny way. And she does have a point. Still, this is a comedy show and it is far better than most philosophical debate I have assisted.

This comedy special is neither comedic nor in the least bit special, except for its amazing capacity in making 75 minutes seem like over 3 hours. Tackling subjects such as gender, feminism, and race, Iliza Shlesinger gathers more (forced) applause than laughs while making contrite, unoriginal points in ways rarely funny or entertaining.

An audience eager to like her and say they had an enjoyable time was not able to mask the obvious: this show is a weird mix of physical and observational humor while not hitting the mark on either, with producers trying *very* hard to make it all seem so clever and hilarious with an abundance of painful, misguided hashtags.

Shlesinger is fond of using her elongated, shapely body to make these weird Grinch-like steps and poses, while contorting her face in off-putting grimaces and using distinctive, cartoonish voices that made me think of a bizarro, unfunny 90's Jim Carrey.

I can accept that not being my cup of tea while resulting humorous to other people. However, what came out of Shlesinger's mouth was just miss after miss after miss, whether speaking about a night out unleashing her inner party goblin or going on and on about women who identify as mermaids, in a particularly puzzling, never-ending bit.

I did chuckle one time near the very end and will admit that a couple of observations in her social commentary were okay, but I had to really push myself to endure this show over 3-4 sittings, sticking to the end only to fairly assess it: it was dreadful.

(+) A couple of her social observations miraculously hit the mark. That's about it.

(-) Jokes extremely hard to find and even those apparent never hit the mark. Uninteresting, painful material. No. Just...no.
