Movie Review Monday: Demetri Martin - Live* (*At the Time)

Welcome to another edition of Movie Review Monday!

This week's film is the 2015 stand-up comedy special, Demetri Martin: Live* (*at the time).

I like to cover comedy specials from time to time, and Demetri Martin (one of my favorite comedians) recently released a new set exclusively on Netflix.

The special captures well Martin's unique comedic style. He spews off irreverent, skewed perspective one-liner jokes that are clever and smart. A lot of them build off one another but most are non-sequiturs which adds to their randomly humorous impact. He certainly isn't for everyone, but I recommend checking him out. If you've seen (and liked) his comedy before, this set is more great jokes to enjoy.

I look forward to the day when I could see Demetri Martin live on stage. I would also love to see Mike Birbiglia perform live (I did a review of some of his comedy here on the blog too).

You can check out this excellent comedy special right now on Netflix!

Thanks for stopping by!
