Ashley Ray-Harris

AV Club

Time Machine is one of those exceptional stand-up specials that can get a laugh out of anyone, from any demographic-and that's the power of Leslie Jones.

Rated: B+

New York Magazine/Vulture

As much as anything else in Time Machine, the missing eyelashes communicate how big and ebullient Jones's performance is. She has the ability to make a careful performance feel wildly combustible.

The Daily Dot

Jones pauses a couple of times to genuinely be in the moment, and though much of the hour leans on surveying the past and making observations (not all of them groundbreaking), there's a bigger takeaway: Take up space now.

Rated: 3.5/5

Giving Jones an hour or more in the spotlight affords her the opportunity to shine in a way she never could on SNL.

That Shelf

Jones' sex-positive set uses comedy as a Trojan horse to deliver insights into accepting middle age.

LAUGHED TIL I CRIED. Loved every minute except for the yelling. I think she's still super funny even without the yelling. 10000% recommend to all people in their 30-40s

I started watching it just to see why the critics and audience scores were so different and it didn't take long to see that the so called 'critics' have ever heard a good comedy sketch before. I got to where she started yelling at the 20 year old in the front row and had to stop. There seems to be no direction in her act and its just luke warm jokes that cater to people who will laugh at anything.

I loved this special! Leslie had me laughing out loud! She was able to show her true talent, and I loved that she would "break " in order to express how much SHE was enjoying herself as well.

I couldn't get through the entire act/special. Leslie was very funny on H Stern, but this special is just her yelling at / to the crowd. Not worth your time

Leslie Johns is in her natural habitat. She lifts the curtain on her history and different eras of her life. Excited for her future.
