Beautiful, moving film.

The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review

The guy works hard. He has an act close to Chris Rock. Even better polished, but that should go without saying because there is one generation of comics between them. The stories are well linked. And they are sensible. But funny? Sick. To laugh at his private dramas seems so cruel. Yet maybe the audience is right: they were sold a comic show, so why not laugh?Contact me with Questions, Comments or Suggestions ryitfork @ bitmail.ch

It's awkward to sit through because the jokes aren't really laugh-out- loud funny by any means and it moves super slow. I didn't want to sit and watch them finish each other's sentences over and over again while they swayed back and forth and putted around the stage awkwardly. Nothing too entertaining to watch.

Hasan Minhaj: Homecoming King is an hour and fourteen minutes well worth spending. One second you're laughing so hard — the kind of laugh that's from your gut — and the next he hits you with stuff that will make your chest and/or eyes hurt. Certain truths are laid out and laid bare, a lot of which I suspect not everyone would be comfortable with but that's exactly the point. He shares a good portion of his life in such hilarious and engaging ways. You might find yourself trying to look for someone on facebook right after. My only criticisms are *spoilers* I don't quite buy that a certain person is completely OK (I need some sort of history), interracial marriage does not fix racism just like that, and can Hasan say that word?

Let me start off by saying, I'm a brown Immigrant kid in US. And, I got to say we don't have many Indian/Brown Comedians up here. So, when I heard Hasan has a new special coming up, I was quite excited. He is not the Best correspondent in Daily show, but he gets the job done quite well. His pieces are usually entertaining, not saying he is bad, but he is quite adequate compared to others. He definitely is in my top 5 correspondents after Oliver, Colbert, Carrell and Sam. It's not that he is not funny, but not upto his peers level, that is it. OK, enough of the rambling about Daily show. But, this special is purely entertaining only if you can relate. And, you can relate only if you are a Brown Immigrant kid. As I am the picture boy of that club, I was extremely satisfied with this special. It's not all belly laughs, but quite entertaining. All I got to say is, if you are a Brown kid, check it out and you may go back to your younger days with this guy. If you are not a Brown kid, you may see his points, but don't get the inner feel of that point. So, you may like or not like it. No guarantees. Watch for yourself and find out if this is upto your standard or not. But, for me, I liked it and will watch again soon. Good job, man.
