Frank Scheck Hollywood Reporter His show clearly has an emotional quality that resonates with his fans. Too bad, then, that he fails to bring sufficient focus and consistent comic observation to his subject matter. Jul 16, 2019 Full Review Neil Genzlinger New York Times "Homecoming King" seems unsurprising and premature... Appropriating from one world while trying to secure a place in another makes you wonder if he's really found his identity at all. Jul 16, 2019 Full Review Dennis Perkins AV Club Homecoming King triumphs by transforming a seemingly intractable dilemma into thoroughly, hilariously human comedy. Jul 16, 2019 Full Review Alison de Souza The Straits Times (Singapore) The centrepiece for Minhaj is a truly astonishing and bittersweet tale about his prom that is alone worth the price of admission. Jul 16, 2019 Full Review Omar Holmon Black Nerd Problems You don't come out here on Netflix with a comedy special that's part Ted Talk, part off-broadway play, part memoir, part nerd bars, and not change the game for the better. Jul 16, 2019 Full Review Christian Becker Paste Magazine This is a special you can watch from many different lenses, all of which will have you wanting to cheer for this young new voice that still has a bright future ahead of him.

Audience Member Love Hasan and his comedy. Funny. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member I love the relevance of the comedy. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member The best stand up I have ever seen! It has unexpected heart, thought provoking material, and a great amount of comedy throughout what seems like one singular story that you are engaged with the entire time. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member I can watch this on repeat and still enjoy his story. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Wow, what a story and what a story teller. Loved it, a must see. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Audience Member Unfunny, unentertaining. I got the feeling that this guy thinks he's cute for telling a story. He's too young and inexperienced to be compelling. Why don't we still use the term hack comic today? Are we supposed to learn to believe these progressive millennial "comedians" are funny? Minhaj's career seems to be forced on us for the sake of diversity rather than quality, like Trevor Noah. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Read all reviews
