Wikipedia article




'I'm Sorry You Feel That Way' is a 2014 stand-up comedy film written by and starring the American comedian Bill Burr. It was filmed in the summer of 2014 at the Tabernacle Theater in Atlanta, Georgia. The film was shot in black and white, which is rare for modern comedy specials.

Synopsis



Bill Burr discusses topics such as religion, sex, the downside of childhood hugs, the wisdom of Lutherans who believe there is no afterlife, the foolishness of watching the NFL draft on television and the absurdity of being kicked out of bed by your wife.

Release



The film was released December 5, 2014 exclusively on Netflix.

Reception



Reviewing the stripped-down production, Maren McGlashan of 'Paste Magazine' stated, "The focus is on the material, plain and simple." McGlashan wrote, "Burrs onstage persona is sharp, unwavering and nearly arrogant. This attitude defines him as a comic, and is even evident in the specials title. Make no mistake, Burrs concern for your feelings is anything but authentic."

Tripp Stelnicki of 'Vox Magazine' noted Burr kept the same energy of his previous routines, with a more grown-up theme. "Burr has mentioned his fear of becoming the creepy old single dude who rants to strangers at the bar in previous specials. He seems to have reckoned with that and settled down some, and fortunately his material maintains its zealous vibe while reflecting a somewhat more-adult Bill Burr."
