Bereamic Awesome Movie
Ogosmith Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
Tyreece Hulme One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.
Cody One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.
stewart_1111 this show is what inspired me to try and be a more funny person from the moment it starts he is going crazy.He never picks on anyone in the audience and he is the essence of comedy if this man still did comedy today he would be bigger than ant and Dec.In the show you can see how much it is taking out of him but he still tries to be funny correction he doesn't have to try he is anyway.watching this was the funniest hour of my life. Denis Leary is comedy genius and deserves more than the 10/10 i rated him.my favourite line in the show is when he says happiness is "ciggarette a chocolate chip cookie and a five second orgasm" just from those words on the front cover i knew that it was going to be something special.this is a show that is guaranteed to have you laughing about a part of it days later it is just simply superb.the lnies he reads the back of his mind are so precise. Although to watch this stand up you need a strong stomach (or just to try and hold your insides in. Some people may find this offensive but i just fin it brilliant.
estellelight1 Excellent comedy of the satirical style and sharp wit of Mark Twain and Jonathan Swift. Dennis Leary's use of music and the quick pace of the delivery creates enjoyment and laughter. Stay alert for his arsenal of truths surrounded in humor. I love his style and his keen sense of pointing out human foibles. The topics are current and yet transcend time. He has the ability to express the arrogance and sense of entitlement that is shrouded in the so called "American Dream". It takes the attainment of the dream and reveals not ultimate happiness and satisfaction but discontent. The suburbanite that must continually strive to control and compete with others for bigger and better. Attempting to assuage the discontent by imposing upon other people and the environment, the "Dream Achievers" become monstrosities that turn the Dream into a nightmare. Leary is a genius. I get the point and so will you. Excellent! Excellent! Excellent!
kerottes Denis Leary proves his insanity in this show. When he goes ballistic while talking about the French, it's like he needs professional help. He is one of the most talented comedy acts alive (a good heir to the Bill Hicks throne) and he has a way of communicating that is different from any other. When Denis jumps into the story about his brother and the Bow and Arrow set, i almost fell out of my seat, and that stone-cold father of his...unbelievably funny.See this show. It's incredible!
silverkings13 No Cure for Cancer has been a favourite of mine for years. Denis Leary's irreverent and sometime shocking observations still make me laugh out loud.If you enjoyed his last special "Lock and Load," you'll love his first. It brings you back to the days when Leary was at his ranting best. The humour is a little more harsh than in "Lock and Load," but in my estimation that is when he is "on."Leary gained much of his fame from his comedy special, "No Cure For Cancer." His laugh-out-loud observations include; smoking, the 70's, celebrities, life, and of course (as the title alludes) Death.Leary's delivery and on-stage charisma are perfected, and this is one of the funniest stand-up routines of all time. He get more credit as an actor, but No Cure for Cancer is when he is at his comedic best. Highly recommended.
