Sometimes we're impressed by the unexpected.


Wait, this is how I start my review usually. I'll do it again.


Bo Burnham has win my respect and my appreciation after what he has produced, all by himself. It's incredible on multiple levels. It's extremely actual, the themes are relevant and the music is just awesome. Bo touches every argument which is actual way in an elegant, sharp and funny way. It's simply beautiful how he parodies Youtubers, models, movies, gamers and Jeffrey Bezos. Nothing feels forced or done for a political reason. He's just a person who's espressing is opinions about things which are dear to him and our society.

And it feels genuine and true. He's not acting and he's not performing for someone but himself. This has been his way to keep himself active during quarantine and sometimes he cracks, which is just good to see. Sure, most of it is planned but most of the time it feels truthful.

He's also extremely competent with the camera and everything has a meaning and a purpose. Nothing is left to the case. I've never felt bored and annoyed while watching it because it offers a large and colourful variety of shots.

I could also say the same about how he used is various cameras. I don't want to say a lot as usually so f**k it. It's just the best you can get from an imaginative mind.

The music, wow. This what makes the movie special. Well done songs with a likeable jingle and social commentary which is done in a funny way. There's a large variety of it and Bo is able to impress you when you don't expect it.

He's even able to make it interestig by changing clothes everytime and he goes all in with it sometimes. He doesn't care, he does what he wants and he has fun. Really, do you want more than that?


This movie is a f*****g comedic masterpiece and this is on eof the most entertaining, funny, clever and it's unexpected . When I chose this movie I didn't expect to feel that entertain and the sensation after that is strange. I felt happy but something, deep in me, told me that there was something unsettling about it.

I don't think that what I've written here could reflect the experience and the sharpness of the movie.

Seriously

And I think that you should see it to understand how subversive and innovative it is.

Here are other pictures but stop linger on them.

Get the f§§k out and enjoy life, now that we can. Reconnect with who you love and have fun. This is the only way to survive this life and be happy.


Everything: Bo Burnham

Running Time: 87 minutes


Ah, right. This movie is an 8,5 but none cares.

As the summer comes crashing to a halt, I like everyone else, am both excited and anxious for the upcoming fall season. But the one positive influence in my life since early June was a comedy special. And as the title suggests, it’s no surprise that it is Bo Burnham’s reflective and incredibly introspective special. As I’ve delved deeper into this special, I find new degrees of messages and clever details regarding the mental state of the titular character, Bo himself. Inside is both a satire of the pandemic year, but also a peer into the mind of a creator who isn’t entirely well; bridging the gap between reality, media, and forms of art, Bo does so much in a matter of eight-seven minutes. Everything from the catchy musical numbers to the intentionally passive-aggressive comedy sketches. There’s nothing about this special that is overly pessimistic, nor nauseatingly sentimental. Bo presents everything to the audience, leaving the viewer in the same state of being as Socko in That is How the World Works.


What Bo Burnham's Special Meant To Me

Along with being my favorite piece of media of this year, Bo Burnham’s special also struck a chord with me, as did it for many viewers who were all too familiar with the isolation and anxiety that came from the pandemic year. This might sound cliche, but so many of his songs felt so relatable to me, and I can’t say that about a majority of some of the films/ television I’ve watched. Like Bo, I’ve experienced my fair share of panic attacks and struggles with anxiety. And I know that I couldn't be the only one who saw themselves in Bo as he sang his heart out in All Eyes On Me. As I’ve stated before, this special means a lot to me just not on a technical level, but to reach me on a personal level isn’t the easiest feat, and Bo has done that almost to perfection with this special.


Bo Gave Matts_moviez Courage?

And here we are, the reason behind why I never gave this special its own post. So for clarification, I am a bisexual man, which is something that has been sort of a burden on me since I started developing feelings towards the same sex. For a long time, I would deny myself the opportunity of happiness because of my sexuality. But all of that changed after I saw this special. Something inside me changed at that moment, on my second viewing, something that I can’t quite describe. I just knew that it was finally time to explore myself and let my sexuality be heard. And that’s seriously all thanks to this fantastic special, which will always be near and dear to my heart.
