Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.

For having a relatively low budget, the film's style and overall art direction are immensely impressive.

It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

I have been a huge fan of Robin Williams' stand-up comedy going right back to his first HBO special from the 70's (Which I recently watched again, and laughed as hard as I did the first time I saw it). I was convinced to purchase this DVD sight unseen by a friend of mine who saw him on this tour. A little part of me was a bit worried that he might not still have "It" after all those years away from the stand-up stage. I'm glad to say that my fears were completely unfounded. If anything, he got better with age! I was literally in tears from laughing so hard. One criticism I've heard from some people I've shown this DVD to, was his use of coarse language. They say, "That's not the Robin Williams I know". To them I just say, obviously you have never seen his stand-up going right back to the beginning. He's always been like that, definitely for adults only! If you can take it, you will be treated to one the funniest stand-up performances ever!

In watching Robin Williams's comedy specials from the 80's, I was struck by how much I didn't actually laugh. Considering it was his prime, a lot of the time I didn't quite 'get' or really just take in most of the jokes he was doing, as a lot of them had him going out into the audience and just ragging on random people's items. Ironically enough he shines in this special, taking on so many topics it would make your head spin for me to list them all. But he's constantly moving here, like in his 80's specials, while still giving the audience some room to breathe here and there, without pounding over the head. He goes after plastic surgery, South American Soccer, the French, (a bit before it started churning up) the US and the Middle East/Iraq, and very memorably a tale of Jesus and his forgotten brother, Jerry. Even when one isn't laughing, it's still putting-a-grin kind of material he's working with. In the year last when he was really on fire (he at least had one good film among three, Death to Smoochy, Insomnia, and One Hour Photo, the latter two in my top 10 of 2002), for me he delivered his best in quite a long time, a wonderful comeback with enough sarcasm, energy, and curses to float a sinking boat.

The only thing that I can say about this was that it was, outstanding. Its the first stand up I've seen Robin Williams in but, man he made it count.He talked about everything terrorism,sex,the history of golf,the French,and religion. amazing that he is 52 years old. I've seen some of the movies he's made and they have been hilarious. There's no doubt about that. I found this so hilarious, that I actually remembered all the lines from this movie. I no it's sad but, its so funny thats its hard not to use in real life. Me and my friend are the only people that get them but, its OK because its cool to have inside jokes between people and keeping other people confused. Look forward to seeing more stand ups by Robin.

The hardest thing in the acting business is to make someone laugh. And laugh hard! Robin Williams succeeds with what seems like ease, he just fires one joke after another and around 20% are so amazingly funny you wonder if you ever saw a funnier stand-up performance in your life. He made me realize one other thing - comedians are the philosophers of modern time, they are hardcore critics of current state of politics, drugs, sports, environment, just name it, they have witty and to the spot anecdotes for every subject. Without them we would be so much emptier, they realize stuff that's true just no one else sees it.A brilliant and amazingly funny, (repeat this about 5 times to get the idea just how much), an unmissable performance. 9/10
