Hadrina The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
Patience Watson One of those movie experiences that is so good it makes you realize you've been grading everything else on a curve.
Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
Jerrie It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...
bsinc George's been around almost long enough to personally know who wrote the 10 commandments, yet this man is relentless in the energetic way he delivers his lines. Perhaps a parallel line with Bill Hicks could be drawn, as both individuals have a great fondness of smart educated intellectuals who are open-minded enough to understand both their jokes, but more importantly-their true message. Comedians truly are the most powerful and effective philosophers of our time, and laughing at something and thinking about it seriously at the same time is something not to be taken too lightly. I am a fan of George Carlin, he thinks out of the box and at times delivers profound revelations to further educate his "crowd".Right on, my granddad, right on 8/10
lottatitles Very few true geniuses in the comedy world. Bruce, Williams and a few more. Carlin is professor emeritus of any that have been or may ever be. Long after you've laughed till you're crying you'll begin to think about what he said. Then, watch out! You're in for a long night.
Robo-Junkie I so rarely nowadays laugh so hard that I feel my body is going to burst apart, but George Carlin has once again done so with this HBO special. He curses like crazy, makes fun of children and their parents and constantly notes the lovely ways he would like to see people die, but also manages to get some points across, that people should make sure to remember.I can barely wait until the next of his HBO specials, and neither will you after you watch this show.
MisterWhiplash Once again, George Carlin, one of the most unintimidated and intelligent comics of this or any generation, comes with even more dead on points on many subjects with hilarious results. Here, he tackles mainly minor things, but it is still mostly golden including: The 10 Commandments, Honor students and the parents of them, singers with one name, and of course masturbation. In other words, it's a really fun (and funny) show. A little bit of seriousness comes here and there, but it is still awesome to watch. A+
