I had no idea who Mo'Nique was, aside from having heard the name somewhere before. So as I sat down to watch this 2023 comedy special, I didn't know what I was in for.
And right off the top of my head, I have to say that I have never, ever sat through an hour with such an excessive use of profanity and foul language, as I did when I sat through "My Name is Mo'Nique". Almost every single sentence contained some sort of profanity, cussing or swearing. And that grew very tiring, very quickly, making it quite the ordeal to sit through this comedy special.
I use the term comedy here very casually, because I found very little to laugh about throughout the course of the one hour that Mo'Nique was on the stage. I think I chuckled three or four times, and that was about it. So this show was a swing and a miss in terms of entertaining me.
Perhaps I wasn't the right target audience, but this show was definitely not my cup of tea.
My rating of "My Name is Mo'Nique" lands on a very generous two out of ten stars.
