Maidexpl Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast
Curapedi I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.
jaxorama-148-962882 This was by far the weakest comedy central roast. The host JGL, the roasters and the surprise Demi Moore entry failed to impress. The funniest guy was Dom Irrera. Jeff Ross' bit seemed to be abruptly edited. Norton was good to watch. But what the hell were the others doing? Even the audience seemed to be composed of just the Willis daughters and a ton of nobodys.
iix-31422 When non-comedians try to be funny :( You could literally when it was a writers joke being performed. It was the weakest roast of all. Kevin Pollak with his 30 years old impressions. Jeff Ross reduced to 3 minutes. Nothing shocking from fear to be fired or #tagged. It was terrible.
lovelywaz Right from the start, Levitt sets the (unfunny) tone for the show. He can be summed up with just one line. "Joseph Gordon Levitt is to this show what James Franco was to the Oscars."Most of the roasters are not funny at all. Everyone wonders why are they there and I was wondering why am I wasting my time watching this? They don't even know what a "roast" is, some mediocre random jokes is NOT roasting someone.The hour is saved by Edward Norton who does a great job at roasting Willis in a very sarcastic way. His jab at MCU movies and specially The Incredible Hulk may rub some (a lot of) people the wrong way but it was part of roasting Bruce Willis and fit perfectly.Jeff Ross, while being funnier than everyone else, was actually just OK when you think how bad everyone else besides Norton was. If everyone else sucks, then of course you gonna have some OK jokes look great too.All in all, I gave it 5 / 10, thanks to Norton and Ross for saving this otherwise train wreck of a "roast" show. If you are watching on a streaming service, save your time to avoid clingiest jokes and moments and just skip to Edward Norton and Jeff Ross parts.
Jsin_7 I'm giving 3 stars simply for Jeff Ross and 1 for Demi Moore showing up. I'll be honest, I would've never imagined Ed Norton sitting in a panel of roasters on comedy central. It's just not him, even though he did start by saying that he was slumming it there for Bruce Willis. You'd think that roasting an A lister would a lot more fun, but jokes just did not land. Joseph Gordon-Levitt was simply out of place and uncharismatic, Dennis Rodman sat there the entire time mumbling to himself and eventually struggled to place his mic and then we struggled to make sense of what he was trying to say. An unfunny panel of washed up celebs and a bunch of nobodies, barring a few, to think if they were going to roast an A lister, they could've atleast had better comedians and people close to him in some sense. Martha Stewart was funny in bits and sadly that's all there is to it. I have no idea what Lil Rel Howery was doing up there or why he was there in the first place. Yeah they start off with the usual "why am I here" but then you signed off on it. In between a few jabs and his awkward laugh after every joke that didnt land, probably because he couldnt read off his crumpled page, he was just awful to watch. Dom Irrera was good. He was bitter, he was angry, he used the N word, but if there was someone funny after Jeff Ross, it was Dom. It all ended with Bruce Willis trying to act like "the man" with those awkward gestures and lines that he just quickly went through and his little harmonica session. Sadly none of it was good enough to save a disaster of Roast that he shouldn't have agreed to in the first place.I've seen a lot better roasts by Comedy Central. This, though, is one they'd want to forget. And really fast.
