Marlon Wayans: Woke-ish

Grew up here in NZ watching In Living Color and then later with the movies. Haven't seen any of Marlon's Stand Up before, but I have been watching a load of Stand Up this past year. So, when I give a rating its based on what a person brings to the table based on their own personal experiences, because thats what speaks to me as real comedy. Marlon's Woke-sih did that. He didn't try to be over political as a lot are doing now, but he left me feeling happy at the end despite the topics and even felt educated with some of the themes. Which brings me to the ratings. I wonder if people are just using ratings like Fanboys are doing in with the comic industry, and that is trying to dictate what others should be reading, in this case watching. If are an immature person who wants to give fake ratings based on the fact that you didn't like one piece of item or topic than I think you should watch and review only the things and people you like. Otherwise its just nitpicking and dictating and you know where the word dictating comes from. So, for everyone who wants a laugh and just enjoy themselves, give this one a go.

I found this on Netflix, but I must admit that I had little expectations to it. Why? Well, because I can't claim to be much of a fan of Marlon Wayans from his movie track record. But still, I decided to give this a go, as it is a stand-up comedy show.

And color me impressed. I must admit that this was actually a blast to watch, and Marlon Wayans was rather funny on stage. It was a very funny show, and he felt naturally at home on the stage doing stand-up comedy.

I enjoyed his particular sense of humor and I was thoroughly entertained throughout the entire show.

His jokes are varied and deals with different topics, which I found to be good. Especially since a bunch of stand-up comedians tend to stick to below-the-belt jokes which become repetitive and annoying rather quickly.

If you haven't already seen "Marlon Wayans: Woke-ish", then I can definitely recommend that you do so, because it definitely put Marlon Wayans in a new light for me.

The headline pretty much sums it up. His material is beyond lame and self serving. He doesn't actually tell jokes rather he just exaggerates made up stories. Save yourself the hour.

Marlon Wayans worked his a** off doing this special, and I'm here to tell you, he did not disappoint me!

3/16/18. I like Marlon Wayans and have caught most of his movies so I thought I would catch his stand-up. I would have given him 6 stars if he used cleaner language. Totally unnecessary to have a potty mouth to be funny. The last third of the 66 minutes was pretty good.
