This is not the best Eddie Izzard recording, however, even the worst Eddie Izzard is still better than the average comic. The DVD itself required a bit of computer know-how to be watched in the USA because of regional DVD "locks", but that's what the internet is for :-)
I have all his other DVD's and I went to this show Live and the Live show was better. Don't know what else to say, its long and boring, some funny parts but I had a real hard time not turning it off.
Mr. Izzard at his very best. See the world through Eddie's eyes and lipstick. Adults only and of a broad minded view.
recently saw Eddie live in Birmingham - brilliant show - hilarious!! He doesn't seem to have as much television exposure as many comedians so one tends to forget how good he is.I am sure this is his choice. Izzard seems to be able to create characters, without props, simply by his movement around the stage.Very clever, very subtle and totally convincing. There is no doubt that he has influenced many new acts - have to say that none meet the bench mark he has set though, in my opinion. Possibly not one to watch with Grannie and the kids - the language can be a bit strong - but there can't be many people still offended by the 'f' word are there? It's certainly no worse than one would hear whilst shopping in any town centre on a Saturday afternoon - and what about Chef Ramsay? Thoroughly recommend this dvd ( and his latest: 'Stripped') - Put them on your Christmas listRead full review
eddie izzard is by far my favourite comedian, or should that be comedienne? of all time. i wanted to this dvd for christmas after not being able to get tickets for the live show, but my husband thought it was too weird that i found a man in a leather mini skirt sexy, so didn't buy it for me. from the moment the show begins his/her unique comedy style had me roaring with laughter. the king/queen of add libs involves the audience " I don't have penis envy, what's the opposite of that?" he asks "aah penis ambivolence". as in most of his other routines the bible and greek myths make an appearance, how does he manage to write so many routines around the same themes? Brilliant, funny, sexy, fresh, and energetic, and for a bargain price.
