Death to 2021 is an entertaining watch with laughable moments. Hugh Grant as Tennyson Foss is brilliant, along with Joe Keery as the influencer Duke Goolies. Go to Full Review

While I can find little fault in how [Death to 2021] approaches, formats, and delivers its attempt to make light of the year that was, I find myself failing to laugh at it. Go to Full Review

3/5
There's no penetrating satire or caustic commentary, just some clever comic wordplay and a salvo of snappy snipes about big events and cultural shifts, all spiced by a large roster of terrific comic turns. Go to Full Review

patrick f 02/03/2023 This second one was just as funny as Death to 2020. It's like a yearbook of I can't believe that happened horror stories. Laurence Fishburn's narration is hysterical. Cristin Milotti stole the show however as the MAGA/conspiracy loving suburban mom on house arrest. Very funny. See more alley n 02/22/2022 A complete waste of time, my goodness.... My blood pressure is still elevated by all this BS.... I was expecting some good laughs but there was hardly any!

Screenwipe and Cunk Of Britain are brilliant and aimed at a BB2 audience. This is modeled on Screenwipe end of year review on events but aimed at an American Netflix viewer and has been dumbed down to its ankle socks, we know the topic targeted are dumb as **** Charlie used to play up to their stupidity by remarking how clever they are normally but this is just irritating, loud and vulgar. ''Just Like an American Netflix Viewer'' See more 01/13/2022 Hopefully I would find more humor in this a few years down the road but it didn't even feel much like a retrospective at this point. I also generally prefer comedy to leave me feeling elevated and pleasant, not frustrated and angry, haha. 3.5/10 See more Read all reviews
