Great Film overall
Don't Believe the Hype
it is finally so absorbing because it plays like a lyrical road odyssey that’s also a detective story.
Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
In this one-hour special, her performance taped live in California, Anjelah Johnson returns to the form we are accustomed. She is irreverent and funny, but just irreverent enough. As when she is describing how she would deal with someone so close to her face that their eyelashes became braided, 'I will cut you.'The first half of this standup routine is much better than the second half. In it she talks about their recent trip to Eurpope and how she coped with the automated seats in first class. She also explains how she brushed up on Europe by watching a movie ... "Taken" with Liam Neeson.The last part of her routine touches on her famous Vietnamese nail salon routine but instead of repeating it she delivers a few new impressions. Not as funny and inventive as the original but still entertaining. Angelah is cute and funny with great comedic timing for the delivery of her jokes. I found this on Netflix streaming.
