Steinesongo Too many fans seem to be blown away

TrueHello 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.

Tyreece Hulme One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

Sienna-Rose Mclaughlin The movie really just wants to entertain people.

twocatsandwine This doesn't seem to understand the line between funny and mean. I get that the main characters want to be viewed as toxic but that doesn't result in being funny. Instead it just creates bad energy and stereotypes about gay men, single Jewish women and New Yorkers. Someone else who was more gracious than me said that this show has a narrow demographic, like gay male couch potatoes. I couldn't agree more. So if this is your thing, enjoy.

Carl Currie www.moviemakeouts.com To enjoy Hulus new original program Difficult People is to appreciate a formula that is one part Seinfelds self-absorbed/self-sabotaging characters and one part Will and Graces' warmly weathering friendship, as written for a post-cable sitcom audience familiar with R-rated material. Difficult People is, after three episodes, already demonstrating clever writing that both leads comfortably embrace. Both Billy Eichner and Jule Klausner play caricatures of themselves, or perhaps more accurately, play up to their public personas. As they are written to be clearly self-aware and not just aloft buffoons, this can make the two all the more difficult to sympathize with. This will be quite jarring to fans of Executive Producer Amy Poehlers series Parks and Rec, where Billy Eichner arguably received his largest exposure. The majority of fans investigating this series will do so on Poehlers reputation and not Eichner, despite humor that is clearly in sync with his work hosting Fuses gameshow 'Billy on the Street'.The audience will, most likely, find it easier to sympathize with the supporting cast. These characters, be it the episode specific offended-mother-of-two in the pilot or the recurring; Such as the brilliantly comedic James Ubaniak and surprisingly nuanced Andrea Martin give breadth for the audience to connect with. It is the combination of the leads shrewd temperament and the series decidedly profane material that audiences will find most inaccessible. It is profane, and the characters are decidedly abusive. And while each fail, the leads have been rewarded for this behavior. Difficult People has already demonstrated that while they will embrace Seinfeds cynicism, they will not be beholden to the No-Hugging-No-Learning rule. It can overshadow the strong pacing of the writing and excellent camera work. Episodes are best appreciated on multiple viewings, and like Netflix 'Bojack Horseman' you must look past the initial "shock" jokes to reveal a layer to the writing where themes are given the entire episode to flourish. *****SPOILERS BELOW*****The weakest aspect to the series writing may yet to have revealed itself, but it may well be continuity. Will we find out Billys fate in regards to his hit-and-run accident? Will Marilyn's hypnosis training be a one episode gag? Three episodes in, the viewers are left with no impression a season story arc is present and that we are looking down the barrel of a joke- of-the-week series. Liked or not, these characters are already to well realized to suffer this dole sitcom fate.

gpwoyce I enjoy what others consider mean or snarky comedy. When it works it's usually due to a very smart and quick wit that I find hilarious, the producer Amy Poehler has this in spades, but it sadly didn't translate to this show. I know you can't hit with every line, but on this show they were lucky if you could get even a snicker for 1 out of 10 attempts.About halfway through the pilot I realized what this show was attempting to be and for those that were looking for the same thing you'll be glad to know season 2 of 'You're The Worst' starts soon.BTW...I thought the R Kelly joke was hilarious.

BBWSiren82 This will be a very simple easy review. The pilot was horrible. Not funny at all. I can NOT believe this came from the mind of Amy Poehler! The two leads, Julie Klausner and Billy Eichner are not funny, just loathsome, curmudgeons.SPOILER BELOWThere is a joke about Jay Z and Beyonce's daughter & R. Kelly that was so disgusting if I were them I'd sue Amy Poehler! How in the world someone came up with that and thought it was funny or even appropriate to have in a show is beyond me. It's someone's actual child and even if it wasn't about a "real" child, the joke is in poor taste. Using children in the context of the said joke is just vile. I won't be watching any further. The joke alone was enough but the program has the added problem of simply not being funny. I've removed it from my Hulu queue.You are no Tina Fey, Amy. I can honestly say I am very disappointed.
