Intense, gripping, stylish and poignant
Good start, but then it gets ruined
a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.
As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.
Russell Howard definitely has spark edge and twist. And he is a comedian that feels very naturally home on the stage.This show was rather diverse, because he gets around to a lot of different topics, ranging from personal loss, to easy pickings such as Trump.Russell Howard has good material which invokes some good and genuine laughs because the material is sharp, and his delivery is spot on.I was genuinely entertained by this show, and I am glad that I did decide to sit down and watch it after happening to stumble upon it on Netflix by sheer luck. "Russell Howard: Recalibrate" is definitely worth checking out if you enjoy stand-up comedy.
5/24/18. An enjoyable comic with plenty of energy to spare as he frenetically works the stage. And, he can sing, too! Worth catching!
A bit more political than I remember him, but still very funny, with some close to the bone jokes.
Russell is one of my favorite stand up comics today and I enjoyed this stand up special even tho it felt like a summary of The Russell Howard hour... which mean not much new material if you've watched that show and Russell Howard Good news in the past.So, if you don't watch any of those shows then I guess you're in for a treat :)It's mostly personal, it's a little bit political and it's funny !
