Stuttering John has nothing to offer
9 September 2022
Unfortunately Stuttering John isn't a writer, an actor or a comedian. He pretends he is, but he has never achieved anything in any of these fields. He has no stand-up career, and his routine is non-existent - it consists of asking the audience where they're from / if they're married / if they still have sex, and then he will go on to tell you how he did something funny 20 years ago. It's not good. There's no actual comedy.

Anyway, that sums up this film quite nicely - there's no actual comedy. John plays a version of himself - a loser 30something with no endearing qualities whatsoever. John is now almost 60 years old and is still playing the same character - an overweight drunk with poor hygiene, no jokes and no audience, who spends his time pursuing younger women on dating sites, as well as creeping on female guests he has on his awful podcast. The more things change, the more they stay the same.

What makes this movie so bad is that John just isn't a likeable personality, either in real life, or in Hollywood. Instead of embarrassing celebrities like he used to, he now spends his life embarrassing himself and his ex-family.
