Ben Pobjie The Age (Australia) From someone who’s been a diehard fan of everything Gervais has done for a couple of decades, Armageddon feels like a piece of work unworthy of its creator’s great talents. Jan 5, 2024 Full Review Tristram Fane Saunders Daily Telegraph (UK) Gervais is trapped between two ill-fitting styles, and outclassed in both directions. Rated: 2/5 Dec 28, 2023 Full Review Karl Puschmann New Zealand Herald The only truly shocking thing about Armageddon is how unfunny it all is. The man who popularised cringe comedy with the original version of The Office is now unironically cringe-inducing. Feb 12, 2025 Full Review Rohan Naahar The Indian Express Essentially a cover version of his greatest hits, the hourlong special finds the comedian taking particular delight in essentially committing an act of onstage arson. Dec 29, 2023 Full Review Sean L. McCarthy Decider Sometimes fast and loose plays really well in the room, but this material was not ready to serve up to a global audience. Dec 28, 2023 Full Review Christian Toto HollywoodInToto.com Brit bludgeons word police, cultural appropriation and so much more. Rated: 3.5/4 Dec 28, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews

Jamie L Excellent stand up. All these poor reviews are either people with zero sense of humor or never seen it and wanted to show to flop. It didnt. LOL IT WON AWARDS. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/13/25 Full Review Clayton F You know the guy who insists on saying mildly provocative (but mostly terminally dull) things and then screaming, “Oh have I offended you?! Ooh can’t you handle it?! Why are you walking away, too offended?!”. In other words, Ricky Gervais is your edgy uncle who just discovered how to use Facebook. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 07/13/25 Full Review Barney 3 Man what happened- Ricky has no idea how mid beige controversial funny his standup has become. Dishwater colour by numbers comedy … sad thing is, Ricky, the once brilliant cultural observer doesn’t know it. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 05/20/25 Full Review Ger O Too long for too short jokes Rated 1 out of 5 stars 04/28/25 Full Review Tom P Headset mics should be banned in stand-up comedy Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 11/19/24 Full Review Liranks G Ricky Gervais left his best quality (sharp commentary on elitists and the entertainment industry) completely behind to become the next aged has-been comedy star that repeats the same spiel of seemingly reading news headlines on social issues and blurting out lazy jokes that are safe enough to play on Netflix but edgy enough that it will trigger a media reaction. This will lead him to his second and last trick: being deeply hurt that whenever he says something, other people have the right to answer him (and calling it cancel-culture). I must say I'm tired of old men standing in front of thousands and being streamed to millions on Netflix lamenting on how they can't say this and that while saying this and that and being paid handsomely for it.
