Leave your thoughts about John Mulaney: Kid Gorgeous at Radio City.
| AV ClubErik AdamsWhat follows is a special that manages to find some intimacy within what was once the world's largest auditoriums, while never once losing sight that, holy shit, Mulaney's playing Radio City. |
| New York Magazine/VultureErik AbrissMulaney's gift is his ability to avoid being mechanical or stiff, as his showmanship and modulated mischievousness add an intoxicating layer of looseness to his set. The guy is just infuriatingly good. |
| UproxxAndrew HusbandIn this new stand-up, Mulaney eviscerates pretty much everything (school assemblies, aging, manners, church) with his patented good-humored charm... In other words, Mulaney's at his best here |
| TIME MagazineAshley HoffmanMulaney's best work to date isn't only extremely funny-it's expertly choreographed, down to his fancy footwork. He goes long on well-paced yarns, like the silliness of proving you're human to a computer-and wherever he takes you, the payoff is satisfying. |
| The RingerAlison HermanKid Gorgeous is a polished, whip-smart, joyful offering from a midcareer comic who's made all three of those descriptors a signature. To be great, a special doesn't necessarily have to be a game-changer-it just has to make you laugh. |
| New YorkerIan CrouchMulaney's comedy of childhood is not neutered or toothless or simply nice; in it, you can see the pockets of darkness that lurk beneath the high-achiever persona. |
| Entertainment WeeklyDana SchwartzIf you don't know who John Mulaney is yet, it's time for you to catch the heck up. |
| Pittsburgh City PaperAlex GordonIt's a perfect Mulaney bit: silly, implacably dark and completely original. |
| AV ClubDennis PerkinsFor a guy whose eagerness to both please and admit his own lack of personal authority is so central to his act, politics would appear to be a tricky tonal minefield to navigate. But Mulaney's inevitable Trump material is brilliantly crafted. |
| The Daily DotEddie StraitWith Kid Gorgeous, Mulaney continues to be consistent as both a writer and performer. |
