	Author	Review
United States	Sean L. McCarthy Decider	"Sincerely and just kidding, the comedian bows out with a blazing rebuttal of his critics"	POS
United States	Craig Jenkins Vulture	"This time, he’s going for the predictable jabs and rehashing takes that were old hat five years ago. His head is up his ass. He needs new ideas."	NEU
United Kingdom	Brian Logan The Guardian	"The trouble is, the phobic jokes keep coming – and Chappelle’s efforts to ironise them, to dance around rather than wallow in the boorishness, are derisory (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEG
United States	Romey Norton Ready Steady Cut	"This special is a great final show for Chappelle to end his five-year Netflix run. Like every great comedian, he’s not afraid to offend, he’s there to make you laugh and he does just that (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Dani Di Placido Forbes	"[Chappelle] now seems out-of-touch, another dull comedian obsessed with cancel culture, more concerned with being viewed as correct than cracking a clever joke."	NEG
