Bo Burnham: Inside

realstibby shared a tip "So... This is probably gonna be the seminal "comedy special" for quarantine. It really got to me man. I wasn't fully vibing at first but everything from "Welcome to the Internet" on had me hooked."

chelsie_johnston shared a tip "I completely missed any announcements on this special so it was a pleasant & fitting surprise on what ended up being a cozy Sunday for me! Have you missed his specials? Will you be watching? #comedy #standup #quarantine #music"

PousseLananas shared a tip "Absolutely amazing 👏👏👏! The perfect testimony of what it felt like to be in lockdown. It's funny, smart, thought-provoking, what more can you ask for?"

arturo_vasquez_223 shared a tip "I'm very curious to know what someone who hasn't seen Bo Burnham's previous specials would think of this. It's probably his least funny one while the moments that are funny stand out way more. This is one of the most creative things I've seen in any format but wouldn't call this stand up sorry for my need to lable it, but I think it's more of a movie and one that deserves some attention come award season."

sapphirestone shared a tip "I have watched Bo since his second special in 2013 and went back and watched the first special and videos he made as a kid. So, Inside in some ways did not surprise me, but I was concerned about how everyone would react and pleasantly surprised by a hugely positive response because it is performance art and often very serious and uncomfortable, but his musicality and sensibility has become so heightened, the expression so thorough, subtle, and nuanced; it bears repeating, discussing, thinking."

jett_anderson shared a tip "This might be my favorite piece of media in the last three years. It captures everything about Internet/pop culture, existentialism about the pandemic and the state of the world today. Just so well done all around."

sarace shared a tip "so hard to describe this in words. it’s funny, insightful and devastating all at the same time. i cannot recommend bo burnham’s content enough; he is truly a genius."

kolika_simmons shared a tip "I was absolutely floored by this piece. Very funny, yes, and doing what he does best with insightfulness and humor... But the fact that this entire piece is shot, directed, composed, by this ONE MAN is incredible. Cinematically and visually, this is no short of a masterpiece. This is the ONE piece of Pandemic-related art that I ever want to hear about. Yes, it's that important."

squishykittykat shared a tip "Lol i love how so many people are only talking about how this is relatable bc of quarantine... Im sorry but for people with mental illness issues this is relatable year round. This is an amazing piece of art that just really addresses pm everything about how crap the world is. I love it with everything in me. Trigger warning for veryyyy depressing content though. 😬 Its exhausting to watch but completely worth it. Its the most effort anyone's put into making anything in a longggg time. Very impressive."

kurtcobain shared a tip "saw this in theaters ! very cool. this special shows how he has evolved as a person and how media has effected him extremely. i really see this less as a comedy but more as a personal execution of changing. if you've watched his other media you'd notice that this is more than likely a call for help. it actually annoys me when people laugh at things they shouldn't laugh at. but otherwise this special is enjoyable for when you want to see someone at their lowest. #relatablecomedy"

hannahskelso shared a tip "as an aspiring songwriter and musician, this was incredibly inspiring. not to mention that bo managed to sum up all of the emotions we were all feeling during the pandemic."

malak_sayed_6922 shared a tip "It’s one of my favourite things I’ve ever watched! Beautiful piece of quarantine media but wouldn’t recommend watching if you don’t wanna be sad"

paytin_mcdonald shared a tip "It digs deep into how society is today stuck inside and how the new generation are changing in a way that was impacted from how they grew up."

horrorgeek shared a tip "This has temporarily increased my depression and my therapist will be hearing about this ❤ absolutely love it but watch with caution"

emily_mrozowski shared a tip "I haven’t even finished this movie yet and already I love it and would recommend it to anyone who had a hard time during this pandemic (which would be everyone). I’m laughing every 5 seconds at how accurate these songs are. #relatablecomedy"

abraham_4503 shared a tip "This was incredibly good. So may thought provoking and hilarious. But also the creativity of some of the cinematography. Just overall one word incredible. It's crazy thing that this guy is og youtuber who was sketch stuff at 17. The lack of coherency or bouncing from topic to another works in this case."

yvonne_oconnor shared a tip "This was one of the best things I have seen in a long time. I play the songs so much my six year old twins have memorised “white woman’s Instagram”! @boburnham"

kaitlyn_radz shared a tip "This special was a whole damn mood!! Every skit I felt in my core and the whole thing is incredibly relatable. I'm so happy this was released when it was, I didn't know I needed to see this until I watched it."

kiran_18 shared a tip "it was so profound, the most brilliant piece of "comedy", if you can even call it that, I've ever seen. social commentary merged with Bo's personal mental health issues made this the most poignant, relatable, heart-wrenching, hopeless, but also brilliant netflix special out there. #standup"

sydney_ho_3438 shared a tip "inside is a poignant capture of what internet culture is like Right Now. the references to social media are so specific, it’s not only indicative of his deliberate observation of the internet’s evolution but also the pervasive internet addiction of his audience. he’s self-aware and yet acknowledges that self-awareness doesn’t absolve his mistakes. the unsettling ari aster vibes really complete his portrayal of dissociation in the special. ultimately, bo reflects us in a caricature of himself."

trent_johnson_5047 shared a tip "Bo is a genius, and I've loved everything he's ever put out, and if you liked his last two specials, you'll love this one too, but be warned: it's truly special, but it's not a comedy special. I just spent the last 45 minutes of it bawling my eyes out."

half_orphan_boy shared a tip "This special definitely captures the dread of being inside during last year. Started off a little slow in the beginning imo, but got better as I watched it. Not my favourite of his work but still amazingly put together"

azeraus_lane shared a tip "Its an amazing comedy but it has a lot of dark humor, bug in it's comedy it managed to get some tears out of me so 10/10 I would recommend and watch again"

mykayla_e shared a tip "I was never a Bo fan, I found his early stuff a bit shrill and annoying at times. This special though…was one of the single greatest things that I have ever seen. I can’t remember the last time I cried that hard, or connected with something that deeply. It’s almost impossible to describe, as it really just needs to be watched to be understood. He’s ******* brilliant and I regularly get like 9/10 of the songs stuck in my head DAILY."

jenna_piskothy shared a tip "Loved it! I’m a huge Bo Burnham fan and this is his best special yet. I’ve been obsessed with these new songs. Inside is really as great as everyone has been saying!"

brianna_zakem shared a tip "Inside is truly one of the best things I have ever watched. It combines beautiful cinematography, songwriting and performance into a culmination of incredibly introspective commentary on ourselves and our feelings. The special leaves you wondering how a man by himself in a room made you feel more recognized than anyone ever could. I learned about myself, the world and more importantly, the wonderful mind of a genius."

tye_rawlings shared a tip "I ended up getting lyrics from this tattooed on my leg. Was the perfect amount of funny and self reflective. Life changing to me!"

alice_undead shared a tip "Darker humor than ever, more relatable than ever. The lineup of songs is excellent, and the creativity of the camera work and visual effects are mesmerizing. Bo held nothing back in this one."

isabella_roberts_03 shared a tip "What isn't there to say? I laughed, I cried, I had an existential crisis in the most therapeutic way. Bo hones in on emotions that for many of us are buried so deep it takes a song pinpointing them exactly for us to even remember. As a kid that grew up with undiagnosed neurodivergence there were so many repressed feelings that this special completely unearthed- while still being a funny as **** masterclass of comedy. Best thing I have watched in a long time, and couldn't recommend it more!"

zeldas-study shared a tip "This is super weird, but the songs are good. I do recommend checking the entry on DoesTheDogDie.com if you, like me, are sensitive to subjects like self-harm."

brien_loomis shared a tip "Really speaks to the millennial mindset in 2020. Not what you’d expect from a comedian, but fun anyways. It made me feel just a bit less alone."

abby_ferguson_2395 shared a tip "Bo is a genius lyricist, and parts of this special were hilarious. But there are also some dark parts where we watch Bo descend into a very real and disturbing depression. Heartbreaking in a way I’m not sure it was meant to be, this captured the early days of the pandemic in the US (particularly the mental health challenges of lockdown) in a way I wasn’t ready to face having just gone through it. This will probably be a classic watch for future generations, but it was too raw, too soon for me."
