Ronny Chieng: Speakeasy

I like Ronny. His this show was also quite funny. I especially liked the exam joke (Cambridge) 😀😀 and Shakespeare's famous vending machine quote 😀 I am not British, but I love Mr. Bean. He is my childood comedian . He is fun come on 😔

I don't normally review content on IMDb, but I had to for this one. Ronny brings a worldly perspective not unlike that of Trevor Noah that I only started to cultivate after leaving the US, living abroad, and seeing things from the outside looking in. Might be harder for Americans who never leave to appreciate those aspects of the special. I came to checkout whether folks indeed took to their keyboards to review this special and I was not disappointed. And this special did not disappoint me either. 8/10 stars.

This just wasn't funny. Woke Ronny pandering to the ideological left makes my ass cringe. Anti-vaxxer jokes - especially at this point in time of the pandemic, fall flat. I can't even finish it. Go home to see your mom Ronny, you have to be relevant to be cancelled.

He spent the last part insulting the intelligence of anyone who might criticize him, and that's exactly why I'm here. I gave the gentleman three stars because I smiled three times in the entire show. A good vlogger could break this show down into a fun 3 minute Vimeo video. And in this video, you can see every funny part of the show. Unfortunately...

How not to like Ronnie Chieng? The guy is smart and funny AF. His stand up performance has a great rhythm and just the right amount of anger. I've seen him on some comedies and on The Daily Show with Trevor Noah and he's become one of my favorites. Yes, some of the topics may be considered as controversial to some, but that's the concept here. Highly recommended.

Ehhh...it was okay with a few chuckles every now and then. We've seen this kinda content from him before and from others before, so it wasn't anything new. Play it in the background while you cook or clean.

First special was so good. This was a disaster, turned it off twenty minutes in. Didn't laugh once. Was more like a Ted talk. The jokes never came. THE JOKES NEVER CAME!

If a standup comedy show doesn't make you feel like a buddy/friend is entraining you for an hour or so in your living room or wherever then what you experienced was anything but a standup. Ronny, with this special special has managed to do just that. Speakeasy or go home. Thanks for standing up.

As another reviewer said, he was very repetitive sometimes, and it fell short. "Cancel me. Cancel me! C'mon, cancel me. Cancel meeeee." He also did at least 3 setups that fell flat, with the live audience and myself. He'd do this big build-up, then tell a switcharoo joke that wouldn't quite land. And while I agree with most of what he said during his soapboxing, it's all been said by every comedian these past three years.
