Katt Williams: World War III

I was literally just saying last week how I missed Katt, I was reminiscing about how funny and revolutionary his comedy was. I turned on Netflix today and to my very pleasant surprise, this special popped up. No questions asked, pressed play immediately.

Oh god i regret it. I need to bleach my memory. What happened to Katt??

Maybe he wasn't that funny to begin with and it was all about the time and place of his original comedy. I don't know.

I love Katt Williams. But this just didn't deliver. He has a lot of great ideas, but didn't bring them home effectively. I think his jokes, especially about religion and the Bible, we're just lost on people. I appreciated that he was intentionally not taking sides politically or culturally, but it was lacking.

Very disappointed in this special. Like so many others I found this to be particularly unfunny. Occasionally I cracked a smile, but struggled to get 3/4 of the way thru the program. I finally just turned it off.

"truths" and "lies" themed with a massive load of "God" preaching interweaved. Kat's "truths" were stretches of logic very often, and not really funny. Sometimes I actually had no idea what he was ranting about (been to 300 planets?!).

Excessive use of the falling limp on the stage stool body language to garner a laugh and indicate the punchline when the crowd was unsure if the joke was finished. I disliked that considerably. Was almost a caricature of himself when he did this after almost every joke.

I like Kat and wish him the best always. This was certainly not the best of his works for me, and I actually wish I had not watched it. It has detracted from my image of him after such a long wait between specials.

I will say that he is in great shape! I cant run around and prat fall even 1/3 of what he can do!

I think the special started off good and was funny but when he started talking about sex, it never left the topic for the last half of the special. Way too drawn out. It got boring after 10 minutes of hearing about his favorite "cats". Very one note.

I've always been a huge fan of Katt's work, but this performance was not good. In the past, his "pimp" persona added humor to his delivery. In this special, he removed that persona and replaced it with a goofy voice and awkward mannerism. I found his new delivery more annoying than funny. There were a few funny moments in his act, but overall it lacked creativity and originality and replaced them with raunchy and effortless cliches. The overall feel of this special is that he put it together without any heart just to fulfill a contractual obligation.
