We were impressed by the laughable and thoughtful content that was layered through Ramy's standup.

His slow paced style with long pauses reflected his capacity as a comedian to hold an audience, and he managed to throw in some spontaneous comedy based on audience responses which was high calibre. He also has a mesmerising stare which worked well for cinematic effect.

He leveraged his ethnicity as a central theme in the comedy in a thoughtful way. He occasionally made you think about society through the comedy rather than just throw jokes for jokes sake.

7/10 mostly because he was often funny, but didn't quite hit that hilarious level I would reserve for a higher rating.

I thought it was really funny. I liked his series and this special is on brand. He manages to be heartfelt and funny at the same time. The problem is that 70 percent of the shots have a spotlight shinning behind him. It was unnecessary and honestly very distracting. It strained my eyes so I actually closed my eyes for parts to let my eyes rest while I listened to his comedy. Which is worth the distraction from the constant spotlight. I just would have preferred regular camera shots without the lighting behind it. Ramy's humor is smart and thoughtful. I would recommend to others but would worry the light will bother them too.
