Ashley Hoffman TIME Magazine Jul 11, 2019
There might not be any earth-shattering revelations about his rise to fame, but there's still enough to excite a comedy super-fan's interest. Go to Full Review

Seinfeld works the cramped stage of his old haunt with not only the effortless and inevitable confidence of the old pro and cultural touchstone he is, but with an enthusiasm belying any hint of obligation. Go to Full Review

Jerry Seinfeld is as funny and observant as ever in Jerry Before Seinfeld. Go to Full Review
Sean L. McCarthy Decider Dec 19, 2017
But repackaged with a new narrative, those same jokes can hold up some 40 years later. Inside The Comic Strip, Jerry Seinfeld can be cool once more. Go to Full Review

George G Jan 5, 2018 He Is A One Of A Kind Comedian That Has Such A Classic Style, Which Is Disappearing On Stage As The Years Go On. Jerry Gives New Insight, Shares Some Rare Intimate Stories & Reflects On How Serendipity Begun His Now Infamous Name. I Really Enjoy His Humor & This, Along With Everything Else He Has Done, Is No Exception, He Simply Rises To An Occasion With Incredible Wit. I Love What He Does. A Very Funny Man. See more
Luke M Dec 29, 2017 Really funny stuff and he definitely still has it. I just wished it was all new material. Some great insight into who is is a comedian was good as well. 4/5 See more
Poe M Dec 18, 2017 I was expecting less Seinfeld and more Jerry before Seinfeld. I'm a huge fan of the show, but I'd like to see some new content from Jerry. I already know all of those jokes by heart, so the recycling manages to wear me down. When will Jerry Seinfeld learn that we don't need to remember Seinfeld? We never actually got a chance to forget. I'd like to see Jerry get a bit out of his comfort zone and surprise us like he used to. I refuse to believe that this man's talent revolves around a handful of jokes and I'd like to be proven otherwise. This special has failed to do so. See more
Kylo R Nov 13, 2017 It's an interesting look at Seinfeld's beginnings and while it's not bad by any means, it's also not his best material. If you're not a huge Seinfeld fan, this probably won't do anything to improve your opinion of his work. See more
Hermione W Nov 11, 2017 Jerry is actually a funny fucker ?? (Seinfeld joke for those who aren’t in the know)
Luke G Nov 11, 2017 A very funny standup set with a bit of off-stage documentary mixed in. Well worth a viewing.
