David Cross: Making America Great Again! (2016)

Genre: Comedy
Directed by: Alex Coletti
Cast: David Cross
Running time: 146 minutes



In his latest comedy special, available now on Netflix, David Cross, better known for playing the hilarious role of Tobias on Arrested Development, pulls no punches. Judging from the frequent walkouts at his live performances, Cross’ own particular brand of political humor is not everyone’s cup of tea.

In this special, quite evidently (based on the title), David Cross discusses Donald Trump and his success, the Republicans in general, the NRA, religions and much more. As you can see, he tackles controversial stuff. The American stand-comic/actor has a very interesting perspective on things.

I enjoyed Cross’s very sardonic delivery. There is a lot of irony here, with various degrees beyond which the viewer has to be prepared to look. Some of the material was not as strong as the rest and a tad preachy, but, overall, this is a very funny show. The Hi, Hitler bit was definitely my favorite. I laughed hard at that one.
