Admirable film.
A different way of telling a story
Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.
True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.
Russel Peters is being his usual funny self in this stand up. He is very talented and is great at using voices and mimics to make his act even funnier. I don't know maybe his other stand ups were or are better but I loved this one. He goes through a lot of topics most of which involve different nationalities. I was especially laughing about the Arab guys and escalator in the mall.I also like his talking to the audience. Many do it but he seems to do it more. Because he is good at improvising jokes that are funny right there instead having to always stick to the script.
He is talented, funny and refreshing that he doesn't just rely on sex jokes . It wasn't offensive because he doesn't point out faults in one race but all . If it wasn't for Netflix I wouldn't have stumble upon his work . He must have flown under the radar but I cant wait to see his next show . He needs more publicity in the USA . He doesn't miss a beat on his jokes and they seem to flow freely and smooth . You laugh through the whole show and it doesn't come off as being rehearsed or waiting for the punch line on each joke he tells. No utter silence in his jokes and they are original , they are his style . After seeing this show I looked for his other shows . They are different each time from show to show . Great job !
It was funny, alright.But, the one-hour show was more of a lukewarm stand-up compared to his previous stints. He cracked some new jokes, strictly deflecting from his usual style of re-cracking his famous jokes. But, I felt the obscenity level was revved up a notch higher, maybe because his mom was present.Certain potshots on tattoos, people who get tattoos, massaging, and of course, racism is all it has to entertain. But, RP himself looked tired doing the show, lacking the zeal with which he used to present.Anyways, this won't stop me from watching more of his future shows, but Notorious doesn't live up to the title. An average show.
