Aside from the opening several minutes, Burr's whole set is like that: thoughtful, surprising, introspective. He keeps yelling, of course.

4/5

Bill Burr: Paper Tiger is provocative, then, but only in a way that seems designed to weed out the people like that heckler, who aren't interested in what he's actually saying anyway.

Burr has the gift of being surprising, of resuscitating a done-to-death subject... Still, some bits work better than others.

3/5

He excels at reducing benign and thorny topics down to their roots to find a laugh.

[Bill] Burr is equally the guy who thinks it's funny to tease feminist protestors and the man fighting his own devil to be a good father. He doesn't have to be right, he just has to be funny, and Paper Tiger is a furious work of art.

For all the talk of Burr wanting to "trigger" people, his most outrageous bits never feel edgy enough to pack the desired punch.

Bill Burr is the GOAT. Funny as hell, Burr basically manages to insult everybody.

Best special of his in years. I don't agree with all his opinions but they are usually funny.

Solid. Very enjoyable throughout the entire special. Perfect blend of dark, gross, and classic humor. A great example of Burr's ability.

Delivers a lot. Makes you feel a good time and surprise you in a decade where a few snowflakes seems to have lost their sense of humour. Always nice listening to somebody that wise and energetic.
