Bill Burr: Walk Your Way Out

Now please if you will allow me, I will break down why this got an arbitrary score based on the jokes, japes, and jollies contained within.

Not as strong as Burr's other work, but a Burr special is still a magical thing.

many of these fruits are either low-hanging, overripe or regurgitated from elsewhere (inc. past specials!); he knows it, the crowd knows it, and at times it feels like a rescue mission. he should've honed this stuff to perfection by now, but instead it's super bloated as though he's straining to disguise its weakness. he does nail some performance/vocal stuff i've not seen him do before, and he's naturally a funny enough guy to stop it being a total misfire, but he can do better than this.

Not Burr's strongest but even his weak stuff is top ten material for comics working today.

One of his best.

Bill Burr is a train-wreck of a human being. He's also painfully unfunny in the most broish, tired way imaginable.

Funny man.

Watchable but weaker Burr set, without enough belly-jigglers to justify the runtime. There are laughs, particularly in the first half, but he rambles on too much here - not least in the last lengthy bit on a talking gorilla, where I have to admit I completely zoned out at one point.

If you can count the laugh-out-loud moments on one hand then you know something's lacking. There are good ideas and bits to be found herein, but the long premises don't seem very kind to Bill Burr. "Walk Your Way Out", at almost 80 minutes, is a tad plodding, not particularly exciting and overall merely chuckle-worthy. The attempts at edgier jokes are welcome but wane in comparison to the concentrated intelligence typically found in the raw material of comedians like Louis C.K. or George Carlin.

Not his best, but very decent.
