This is fairly boring from my point of view. It was made in a short space of time as The Game posted on IG - "I pulled on @hitboy & @bighit 3 days ago to do 1 song… stayed a few hours & ended up doing a 9 song tape that night" - and it feels that way. As a rapper, The Game pretty much has nothing engaging left to say, much of this is just generic gangsta rap, and the production isn't Hit-Boy's best. One positive is that Game and Hit do trade bars at times. Too often with collaboration albums it's just one rapper for a whole verse and that feeling of true collaboration is lost.. Overall, it's alright in parts but it doesn't get me excited at all. Beats: ★★☆ Rapping/Bars: ★★☆ Hooks: ★☆ Best Tracks: Backfade, Bang Freestyle, Body for Body

"bigotry" "an hour promoting transphobia" I really wonder if these people actually watch these things or just review and rate off headlines. He makes a couple of trans jokes as a middle-finger to those who cried about them last time, and it's "an hour promoting transphobia". Okay... Dave is still an amazing storyteller. He hooks you in like few, if any, other comedians. One of the early punchlines where he said something like 'that's what trans people make me feel like' caught me by surprise and was one for the books. His take on the Will Smith/Chris Rock incident was interesting as well. Some of the jokes about his relationship with his wife worked well also. However, kind of like what I said about Ricky Gervais' latest special, we need some more originality, and more so specifically to Dave, more humour than stories.

[spoilers] A boyfriend/ex-boyfriend turns psychotic after an argument with his girlfriend where he abuses her in public and she says she doesn't want to see him again. Despite the argument being in public, almost no one in the background seems to care about the women being harassed. From there, it's a version of Duel or Unhinged for a more recent film. When they begin to be chased, there is a lack of fear shown by the characters that makes the tension the viewer could feel be lost, and this can be said about many instances throughout the movie. For example, later on, they are being chased, to what could be there deaths, and they are "Woo Hooing" through over a jump... It's amazing! Some of the other non-chase dialogue is bad as well where the two main characters chop and change moods like it's their time of the month. And at the end, the protagonists seem to jump out of different doors but somehow end up together... It's not terrible for the type of car chase movie it is, but the script needed more time in the writers' room.

This is a cool trip down nostalgia lane, and it's interesting to see the doomsdayers being ridiculous, but there isn't enough information about what they actually did to prevent anything disastrous from happening due to the 'Y2K bug' and what, if anything, actually went wrong. More details in these areas are needed.

I've always liked Gervais' comedy but I felt like I'd heard a lot of this before. His jokes where the punchline is rape, a disabled kid, or turning around from sounding like he thinks the amount of homeless people are a blight on society, from an egalitarianism stand-point, to them just being horrible and the need to get rid of them, all felt recycled. His story of calling his mum and pretending to be blind is from his podcast/radio show with Steve Merchant and Karl Pilkington from a long time ago. It's not unenjoyable, but he needs to write some more original jokes. Before watching this, from some reviews and seeing the reception it received, I thought it would be full of anti-woke content, and while he starts and ends with it, and his jokes aren't what would be considered PC or 'woke', it's not a constant theme or what Ricky talks about. He ends by saying something like if woke is caring about equality then I'm woke, but if it's trying to get people fired for a joke then I'm not. And unfortunately that's where we're at in the current age. Other points from Ricky, like those about clowns having an issue when an actor plays an identity that isn't them, are spot on, but it isn't exactly something that hasn't been said before.
