In comedy success and quality seem to go opposite ways, seems like

"They're not going to laugh at you" was one of my fav comedy acts ever. It was coming from a struggling comedian. And that's why it was so good. It was relatable.

8 years passed. Sounds like Felipe "struggling" years are far behind him. And so is his inspiration and soul that brought up all those hilarious "they're not gonna..." stories.

You can tell when a comedian going downhill when they start repeating same lines or gestures throughout their act which looks so forced. Russell Peters suffered the same way. So did Jim Jeffereys to name a few. All their latest acts are cringe worthy. But they're sort of celebrities now.

Unfortunately comedians' success seems to take away their funny. Very few resist that and remain interesting and still have funny, LouisCK, Chapelle...

There's not much funny in "Bad Decisions". A few chuckles maybe. It's not terrible but I stopped watching halfway through.

score 4/10
