It's obvious to me now that all the 10 star reviews are quite suspect and clearly from an alternate reality. Even being generous, you couldn't ever give this film more than about an 8 out of 10. So fanboys or paid shills? Who knows.
There isn't much need to go into details since other negative reviewers have covered things well enough, so I'll just say that they are pretty much spot on. Oh well.

I watched the UK version of this first and really enjoyed it, so figured I'd expand my viewing to at least the other English-speaking versions.
Well, a bit of a mistake as I didn't find it very funny. One major issue as pointed out by another reviewer is that this show is called Last One LAUGHING, not last one smiling.
That is such an epic fail on the part of the producers. It takes a lot more to make someone laugh than smile. The UK version pushed the participants to the breaking point and near mental breakdown before they were eliminated, which made for great viewing. Here, the Irish are knocked out for the smallest smile which is an idiotic choice and just not funny.

Of course we've seen better comedy from these folks on 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown and WILTY, but in this case they have to be careful to not make themselves laugh. So it's 100% true as some say that it's not as funny as it could be and it's unavoidable due to the format, but it's a minor point.
HOWEVER, you basically have to be off in the head to not think this is funny at all, and I feel sorry for the people giving this low scores. You probably have a brain condition that needs to be corrected by surgery. Or you're just angry that the person you liked didn't win.
I particularly loved the faces some of the ladies made. We see the physical embodiment of a laugh trying every possible avenue of escape until it ultimately breaks free!
I am really looking forward to another series and I hope they bring back some of these GOATs and then add fresh meat to see what happens. Or how about an AI Sean Lock randomly throwing out "that's a challenging wank" or "I went seal clubbing" just to push the weak over the edge!
