I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.

I never was his biggest fan, but my husband liked him in the past so we watched this show. It was hard to get through to the end, not just for me, but for him too. It was not funny, and it was downright creepy how he basically called himself a pedophile for marrying a gold digging woman far younger than himself. There were sure a lot of "jokes" about how old he will be when his youngest kids grow up. Save yourself the time and just skip this so-called comedy show.

I found out about Jeff Dunham on Youtube. And in clips one to three minutes long he was funny. But fast forward to Netflix. And it turns out it's hard to fill up an hour with only "Silence, I kill you!" And the show is even longer.Really, what's with the puppet? I mean it's not a puppet show. And comedy can be quite good by mimicking a dialogue with only one comedian. Eddie Murphy did it and he is hilarious. Robin Williams too. Also excellent results. But the need for the dummy? Keep the puppet!

I have been a Carlin fan for years and his Schtick was always bad language and disturbing points of opinion until he left us back in 08 so bad lingo doesn't offend me. Jeff's routine started out well enough but then it fell flat with the political jargon then went downhill further with him debasing himself and his marriages and the third grade style of jokes and one liners and that abysmal Irish baby puppet was disgusting. If I wanted to watch racially demeaning entertainment I would have put on the news. Dunham used to be the cornerstone of fun humor filled Puppeteering and we all would tune in to see him at his best. In all honesty I think this is him at his worst. Hopefully he gets the act back on track or else many fans will not be showing up for the live venues.

Think of this special as the 300th episode of a cheap TV comedy that has gone on way too long and you will get the idea. Jeff gets right to the puppets this time instead of doing stand up first, which kinda throws things off balance. His establish his current situation in life first and introduce his beloved characters second to belittle him about it is gone. I think Jeff's popularity is starting to severally dwindle, or least it will after people see this.There is no Sweet Daddy or Jalapeno on a Stick to be found here. There is mention that Jeff feels that Sweet Daddy is an insensitive character or racial which is odd. He goes to Ireland to introduce a new puppet - Shamus the Irish baby.Really? That is what Ireland needs to pay money to see, a stereotypical Irish character! Brilliant Jeff and so original too. I live in the Midwest, and some years ago he played here. There were a LOT of Native Americas in attendance, but that did not stop him of making fun of them to the point where white people in the audience where becoming concerned for there safety. This was a very lite version of that event.Shamus is an ugly, cheap looking Halloween doll reject. A big headed baby that is an alcoholic. Its Achmed as a baby basically. And Shamus loves to say f*ck a lot in a bad Irish accent. Which brings up a point, Jeff at numerous points insists his act is about family, however there is course language through out despite him stopping his puppets from saying even more courser things. Add to that a dark subject matter (abandonment issues, divorce, female breasts, virgins, Walter supposedly being his dad and his mother a whore (he payed her to jump rope - yeah I don't get it either), him marrying a younger woman). This is a very strange thing to say or do. I don't mind the language but don't call it family entertainment - come on Jeff. The other strange thing is his explanation for being in Ireland, it makes no sense at all.All in all not really that funny and kind of sad to see this comedian fade out. It all just really comes to the point where you have to ask how funny can any well used stereotype be? Jeff has never been a strong political comedian or social commentator. Jeff insists the people want to see his beloved characters but doesn't give them fresh material to work with. Walter starts it high and then it slowly sinks until Peanut closes the show cleaning up the mess. Watch at your own accord.
