Well, it's okay... Some people are obviously funny, but lots are not and you never have more than about ten minutes to get into each one.
Lee Evans is as per usual, very physical, sweats a lot. Dara O'Brien has a whole joke that he also uses in his DVD that I saw yesterday and even more than usual about being Irish, so that dampened his act for me. David Hyde Pierce just starts 'singing' a song about being a therapist for his act, which I didn't love. Dave Chapelle, Dennis Leary, Drew Carey, Omid Djalili, Patrice Oneal and Wanda Sykes are quite good. Dylan Moran is pretty damn funny, but I suspect he is also reusing some jokes from a DVD of his, I just saw it a few years ago and so had forgotten details. Mike Wilmot is really funny and I've never even heard of him. Tim Allen is not all that funny, but on even less than the others, so it's all right. Jeremy Hotz was very funny, but his delivery is more than a little annoying.
The extras involve a few short interviews and a promotional Montreal festival bit.
Overall I can't give it less than three stars because I did laugh gently a few times, but wouldn't reccomend this. I'd rather watch one comedian really get into the swing of things, and I never gave a real belly laugh.
david hyde pierce (worth renting for this act alone) , lee evans and the Iranian guy are very funny. tim allan very disappointing ,the rest average
