Steven F. @SteveGotScored Mar 18 Louis CK is a legend hands down! See more Iamwhoi M @Shaboutiques 03/10/2025 When Greg Giraldo died, Louis C.K. became my favorite (living) comedian. I had heard the rumors of his gross peccadillos; but when he confirmed the stories as true, I found him revolting. I guess most everyone deserves a second, third, fourth chance, and his career seems to have survived; but I have a hard time watching his routines anymore. Maybe because I'm pissed I have those disgusting images forced through my brain, that hurt my eyes from the inside out. I enjoyed this documentary, even though it risks the viewer getting reinjured eyes by watching it. It is interesting to hear other people's opinions of the situation. Jon Stewart's reaction was especially interesting. Says a lot about who HE is. I don't know if I'll ever be able to really enjoy C.K's work again; but it seems a lot of people have no problem at all with it. That says quite a bit about the state of American culture these days. See more Paul C @RT93884105 08/19/2024 I did actually watch this documentary, spent money to rent it even, and thought it was quite fair at looking at both sides of the prickly subject discussed. It’s well put together. And so far the best doc about the CK scandal, since no one else has covered it. See more J E @RT23852713 08/16/2024 I believe that this film does its job very well. With clarity in its mission to condemn Louis C.K.’s behavior, “Sorry/Not Sorry” still manages to present itself with both humor and earnestness. While tackling the stark controversy surrounding the comedic icon, a lighthearted tone is somehow maintained throughout the documentary. At points, the quasi cancelled comedian is even portrayed in a quasi affectionate light. As any compelling and provocative documentary should, it makes a necessary statement while acknowledging its converse. Victims, fans, and associates both past and present were all given an equal voice here. The fact that this film centering on backlash is now receiving backlash only serves to underscore its purpose. This movie is apparent in its stance and appropriate in its execution. I’d recommend it to anyone familiar with Louie regardless of their opinion of him. See more David F @dfulmer 08/01/2024 An interesting look into the Louis CK chapter of the #MeToo movement. See more a p @Ammurca 07/28/2024 This was a gripping decomposition of the Louis CK scandal and the cultural context in which it occurred -- and is still ongoing. A former huge Louis CK fan, I was shocked to learn that in fact I had not been told the full truth and Louis himself has spun events to make it all seem like "the womens' misunderstanding." But in fact, his actions were clearly abuse all along, and he knew it then, and he knows it now -- which is why he changed his tune after his initial "apology" to better preserve his own career. Both his acts in the first place and the reaction to them (which now include a sizeable, predominantly fratty fanbase) tell volumes about our culture, as the women in Louis' orbit were victimized then, and are being re-victimized now by Louis (and even people like Dave Chappelle), for their own fun and profit. So this documentary makes clear that even after the "Me Too" movement, we have a long way to go before women are treated in our culture as first-class human beings. Why? Because we can all agree that rape and other overt physical sexual assaults are bad, but way way too many people still think intimidation and manipulation of women is just fine -- they should just "buck up!"
