Bo Burnham: Inside2021

In a free society the right to critique art is essential and protected speech. These reviews reflect personal opinions and not statements of fact.

What We Think

Bo Burnham: Inside is a masterclass in modern, self-aware wokeness, heavy on ideology, light on diversity of thought, and definitely not an ode to tradition. Entertaining, yes, but you won’t find much here for fans of non-woke storytelling.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Much of Bo Burnham: Inside is built around deconstructing modern identity and online culture, with heavy emphasis on topics like privilege, mental health, and social issues. The special tends to prioritize ideological commentary over classic narrative and personal storytelling.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Hyper Woke

What is this?

The special jokes about religion, masculinity, and traditional values, often with a critical or ironic tone. It leans heavily into modern progressive criticisms of societal institutions, which could be seen as undermining traditional cultural pillars.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Virtually all the perspectives presented align with modern progressive talking points, with little room for genuine alternative or traditional worldviews. Dissenting views are mostly played for laughs or dismissed as outdated.
