Tiffany Haddish: Black Mitzvah

A+ actress, solid C stand-up comedian, but we knew that, right?

I'm a comic and this is NOT stand-up it's a family talent show "performance. This says a lot about the state of comedy today. No ammount of money is worth producing something this unfunny yet.. tah-dah! Tiffany Haddish is WOW level terrible. I still cannot believe someone spent money to make this. Her working a room probably full of her family & friends with stories about them and how famous they are. This show is a nightmare, and an embarrassment to stand-up comedy. We need to be honest if we want to improve comedy, and ultimately laugh more.

This does not look like a stand up show, rather than some sort of support group. hurray for her: she has stopped smoking, she is content with her body size and shape. and the audience was really supportive, so there were no laughs, rather cheers to keep her morals up.

What is wrong with the reviewers on this title? Four in total, two ones and two sixes...What??? It appears none of them are able to spot talent even if it swaffled their nose for half an hour.

Straighforward, honest, deceptively vulnarable, a unique style and at times funny as hell. This stand up show is seriously good.

I've never understood the hype around Tiffany Haddish. I've seen her in acting capacities and to me, she seems to play the exact same character in everything. Never saw any of her stand up routines so I gave this one a try. And one thing I noticed was that just like Iliza Shlesinger's newest special, she's performing to a crowd of pandering seals waiting at the ready to clap and bark at literally everything she says. For example she said "I bought a microscope" and the crowd actually whooped and hollered at it. She even had to tell the crowd to sit down because for whatever reason after an opening standing ovation they just....kept standing?

She didn't seem to be telling jokes. She was basically just talking AT the audience about the most random things. Everything she said seemed to be going for applause rather than laughs. Even to the point where she kept pausing, expecting a round of clapping in return. The whole thing was just a mess. And after seeing this and other things she's been in, I'm STILL at a loss for why the powers that be keep trying to make this woman happen.

The only reason I gave this trash one star was because i couldn't give it zero.
