Yeah I used Tigging instead of digging to convey how I felt about this stand-up special, because that's how I roll. And Tig had me rolling with many of her bits during this routine.

I have Netflix and have watched (scratch that) tried to watch a lot of the stand-up specials on offer. And for me most fall flat. Of course, like many things, art is subjective and that's never more true than when it comes to comedy. Some things are going to make you laugh and some are not. Tig's sense of humor may not be for everyone, and not all of the jokes land. But I think this woman is smart and funny and very astute at observational humor. which is my thing. I didn't think it worked as well in her very short lived TV show "One Mississippi". But it works here.

If you enjoy comedians who are storytellers, and don't rely so much on one liners. Or making fun of others (which for me is a form of bullying not humor) then give this a shot.

I laughed, I smiled and at 8:30 in the morning left feeling pretty darn good about having stayed in bed late to watch. Thanks Tig!

Documentaries, when done well, are like great theater. Count "Mommy Dead and Dearest" among one of the best ever made. It also doesn't hurt that the filmmakers have an unbelievable fascinating story to work with.

"Gypsy Rose" sounds like a name for the title character in some form of art. But the story of her life is a tale best left for nightmares.

Just when you think that there is nothing else that could horrify or surprise you, along comes a story that turns that on its head.

It is going to take me a lifetime to forget what I just watched. I also now have a new added skepticism of or society, legal and justice system- all of which dropped the ball here.

Sometimes the worse solution may end up being the only solution.

It was okay. The critics were a little harsh, but I give it a solid 6 out of 10.

A man wrote it so it seems like the choices that were made were based on how men view the world. This is not a negative or positive criticism just an observation.

The overall message of the movie resonated but it did not conquer new ground. Then not too many films break new ground so that's okay.

The cinematography was great. The ship and it's perks and automation seemed plausible. If you're up for a movie that is entertaining and not boring or offensive then you could do worse.

Break out the popcorn and relax and enjoy.
