Movie Reviews

5 / 10

Quite repetitive

So, I’m a fan of Trevor Noah, or at least used to be until I stopped watching the Daily show because it just dropped off.

And I really, really loved his old stand-up. A new, fresh perspective on things. New stories, new takes. Exciting stuff.

I didn’t have big expectations going into this, but most of this is regurgitated older material of his loosely strung together and it feels lazy. Maybe it’s that he’s too much in his bubble and has writers for his jokes on the show. Maybe he had a three-show deal with Netflix and just had to get it over with.

My guess is, the guy’s burnt out.

And I’m sure he’ll come back strong, once he’s stopped doing the Daily Show.
