One of the greatest films to emerge from the pandemic, an always funny, frequently scathing and often emotional tour-de-force of comedy.

| Original Score: 5/5 | Jul 11, 2024

This one goes straight to the world heritage lockdown archives.

| Original Score: 8.4/10 | Oct 29, 2023

I laughed through multiple viewings of Burnham’s song-filled reflections on living through the pandemic, though it’s the deep personal moments that stick with me.

Bo Burnham: Inside is by far one of the riskiest and original comedy specials to come out in years. It’s a one-man show that will surely rub many the wrong way and will most certainly cause a strong reaction from its supporters and detractors.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Oct 9, 2022

This singular documentary is finely crafted, it talks about something trivial and taking advantage of its superficiality, introduces a profound theme. [Full review in Spanish]

| Sep 13, 2022

A cocktail of laughter and tears that goes down like a punch in the gut. [Full review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 5/5 | Jun 8, 2022

Perhaps one of the best [comedy] specials ever filmed... [Full review in Spanish]

Burnham has proven himself a master director. [...] If he’s really reached the zenith of his musical comedy, I hope he jumps into film with both feet.

| May 7, 2022

A very well-produced comedy special highlighting all the triggers and peccadillos that come with the manic personality of Bo Burnham.

Inside felt like a hilariously disturbing, and disturbingly hilarious, deep dive into my own internet-addled brain.

| Apr 5, 2022

The result, filled with catchy songs and hilarious commentary, feels personal, fractured, repetitive, self-conscious, and often relatable.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Feb 26, 2022

At once tearing down the darker quarters of the Internet, this bloody pandemic, white privilege, and his own complicit place as a navel-gazing artist, this is a remarkable example of a performer basically getting to have their cake and eat it too.

| Original Score: 4.5/5 | Jan 2, 2022

Comedy specials used to play in movie theaters, and Burnham demonstrates how you don't need an actual cinema to make them cinematic.

There will no doubt be many things written, recorded, and filmed about the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic, but 'Bo Burnham: Inside' will be among the most penetrating.

| Original Score: 4/4 | Dec 23, 2021

Inside is a biting piece of gallows entertainment that not only documents the deteriorating effects of the isolation brought about by quarantine but the deleterious emotional impact of performativity in our always-online world.

| Oct 22, 2021

Encapsulates the claustrophobia of the pandemic, while also unleashing the raw, frustrated poetry of an entire generation. One of the best films of the year.

| Sep 17, 2021

It's a remarkable work of art - deeply personal and yet relatable to almost anyone who's been trying to make sense of the chaos around us.

| Sep 8, 2021

Of all the shorts and movies filmed during quarantine... Inside is without a doubt the best of all of them. [Full review in Spanish]

| Aug 26, 2021

A true swing-for-the-fences achievement that makes elaborate use of its lo-fi trappings, straddling a delicate line between sarcastic mockery of cultural taboos and politically aware understanding of the times that are indeed changing.

| Original Score: A | Aug 6, 2021

Some people perfected their banana loaf or sourdough bread during lockdown. Others tried to learn a new language or how to play an instrument. Bo Burnham produced this masterpiece.

| Original Score: 5/5 | Aug 2, 2021
