Critics Consensus

John Mulaney incisively describes his own befuddlement with the modern world in this uproariously funny deconstruction of manners, relationships, and religion.

Patrick F

Comedian and Saturday Night Live alum John Mulaney's delivers again with his third Netflix Special. It is a rock solid ride for any stand up comedy fan. John's hilarious takes include musings about manners, relationships, religion and the state of modern politics. His style is still very much a preppy young man who speaks fast and fits in as many jokes as possible per minute. He doesn't really tell jokes, he tells stories with his own hilarious takes on them. The pace is fast and and nonstop. This special is fantastic and flies by. It's worth watching multiple times. His delivery and stage presence are terrific.

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars

Mulaney has a certain way of delivery in his humor which I enjoy. He may not be for everyone but he is a writer and traditionally comedians with this writing skill are very descriptive onstage.

What follows is a special that manages to find some intimacy within what was once the world's largest auditoriums, while never once losing sight that, holy shit, Mulaney's playing Radio City.

This is arguably Mulaney's best hour special yet, a showcase for his immaculate writing and captivating stagecraft.

With "Kid Gorgeous," John Mulaney made the leap from highly respected writer and comic to elite A-list stand-up.

In this new stand-up, Mulaney eviscerates pretty much everything (school assemblies, aging, manners, church) with his patented good-humored charm... In other words, Mulaney's at his best here

He may not be as profane or as prolific as the late great Carlin, but Mulaney is as worthy of celebration.
