This stand-up comedy starts with Jay London as an opening act. It's good that it was very short because I didn't get his sense of humor. The main act is of course Louis C.K., and after watching his series (that I enjoyed in the beginning but that I found quite boring at the end) I was curious how his stand-up comedy would be. I just watched a Jimmy Carr show before where there were alot of good jokes and laughter so to top that Louis C.K. had to be at his best. Louis C.K. is just completely different as he just tells stories that make not much sense and often there is just no ending to his stories. He's hopping from one story to another without finishing with a good pun. As for the jokes you won't get much of those. I admit I laughed a couple of times, maybe three or four times, but compared to other stand-up comedians like Jimmy Carr, Frankie Boyle, Ricky Gervais, or Jim Jefferies, Louis C.K. is just a little fish. Not a show I will watch again.

being a huge fan of the role of comedy in the movie industry, i think Louis ck has done a perfect job at keeping it alive for at least the past ten years. the method that he sells his specials, and not following every rule there is really made his work enjoyable to watch. i think he has done a perfect job at continuing what George Carlin had started. this special is not Louis ck at his best, but all that you expect of him is still there, the bold,out of the ordinary funny stuff that everybody wants from Louie. i think the material that Louie had in this tour is what lead to this special in the first place, because he is coming up with something new every couple of years. but i didn't expect a new special so soon after "oh my god". i heard that this special wasn't even supposed to happen but because of the good response Louie got from the audience made him think about making it his new special. i personally love the stuff he wrote for this show, maybe the reason that some might think it's not his best work, is because throughout the show i got the sense that Louie wasn't into it all of the time. he's always been kind of angry and frustrated in his act, but this time it seemed that he wasn't up for the whole hour, he seemed a bit tired in some bits. but still I absolutely loved it and even though i waited for a month to see this, and probably built it up too much in my head, it did not disappoint me.

At just over an hour long, this is a tidy addition to the work of MR C.K. Standard setup, Louis, a stage & a microphone, performing at the Comedy Store. As usual, his routine covers the usual Louis topics, his kids, his divorce, and how he perceives people & everyday life.

The show flows well, and contains more than enough quality material to keep you smiling & laughing almost the entire time. Particular favourites come in the form of a witch, a bat & couple of horny rats !! Well worth an hour of anyones time.

8/10
