Meet Carlos Mencia. He has quite a few opinions… on just about everything. In this extended and uncensored comedy performance, No Strings Attached, filmed live in San Francisco, Carlos’ take on race relations, the police, immigration laws, religion and the mentally challenged will either have you wincing or laughing, but either way, he doesn’t really care, because as Carlos is quick to point out, if you ain’t laughing, you ain’t living.

Greg Giraldo: Midlife Vices (2009) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
He skillfully tricks you into believing he's just your average comedian whose performance is ridden with cliche narratives of the American cultural landscape. But you'll soon find you've been fooled. I find the more aware a comedian, the better he is. He must take risks with the audience. Sometimes he must trust that his audience is not vanilla but again we're not sick pervs either. With awareness of this, Giraldo is able to become several great comedians at once with material that is crude (Stanhope) and political (Maher, Stewart). He also does numerous pieces that make fun of our use of language, reminiscent of the late Carlin. Nevertheless Giraldo is not just a mish-mesh of other comedians, he masterly weaves everything in a special way. Each joke is not random, he's telling a story that hopefully should vibrate with the younger generations.

Mitch Fatel: Mitch Fatel Is Magical (2009) Review

Mitch Fatel: Mitch Fatel Is Magical (2009)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
One can expect sexually perversion at an all time high on this Comedy Central DVD. "Sex". Mitch Fatel's comedy revolves 100% around it and he never strays.
Known for his comedic delivery (ie. he sounds like he's mentally challenged), Mitch Fatel is a comedian who loves women, loves breasts and loves sex. In fact, he'll let you know several times about his love for women and their bodyparts and getting laid.
His comedy is literally uncensored and he spares no one from the audience as he will talk about his love for breasts, big and small. His love for the vagina, sexual positions, sexual garments, using his popularity to get women, and literally sex this and sex that.It's literally a sex-driven comedy act and again, for Fatel it has worked successfully for him. His popularity has led to two comedy albums "Miniskirts & Muffins" and "Super Retardo" and now, here we are with his comedy special on DVD extended and uncut!
Fatel shows no worries or hesitation about the things he will discuss. From bestiality, what he finds on the Internet to having sex with a woman having her period. Fatel is literally not afraid to discuss sexual taboos and not afraid to use himself as the guinea pig for his jokes and the crowd loves it.
The track list for "Mitch Fatel is Magical" goes into several topics. Here is the DVD track listings:
1. The Pre-Sex Warning
2. Girls Like Me Now
3. Sex with Horses
4. Super Famous
5. Candycane
6. The Panty-Pull-Aside Move
VIDEO & AUDIO:
"Mitch Fatel is Magical" is presented in Widescreen. Camera shots are either typically up front and some focusing on the audience in the front row (who will occasionally be used in Fatel's comedy routine). Another camera behind the audience but overall, several camera angles and good editing make the comedy fluid and smooth. No special effects or crazy use of editing during the whole hour.
As for audio, audio is presented in English Stereo and English 5.1 Surround. For the most part, dialogue is easy to understand and is front and center channel driven. I preferred to watch the the DVD with my receiver set to stereo on all channels for a better, more immersive sound with the audience.
SPECIAL FEATURES:
"Mitch Fatel is Magical" comes with the following special features:
* Mitch is a Big Star - (:47) A deleted scene with Mitch Fatel getting upset with his water.
* Mitch is Photogenic - (:57) Behind-the-scenes on photographing the cover and main menu for the DVD.
* Mitch is Imitated - (2:43) Members of the audience tries to pretend to be Mitch Fatel.
* Mitch is Perverted - (1:08) Members of the audience talk about Mitch Fatel's perversion.
* Mitch is Reviewed - (:51) Members of the audience reviews Mitch Fatel's show (while the cameraman has his eyes on other things).
* Mitch is Talented - (2:29) Members of the audience talk about how talented and funny Mitch Fatel is. And also audience talking about how Mitch Fatel would be in bed.
* Mitch is Animated - (1:03) A comedy segment of Mitch Fatel discussing matching bra and panties with a FLASH based animation going along with the audio.
JUDGMENT CALL:
This is probably the raunchiest Comedy Central DVD that I have seen so far. But for the most part, I found it hilarious and entertaining.
Rarely do you find comedians who focus on sex only for their comedy act but Mitch Fatel has made it a career and it has worked. Most of the time, when a comedian gets into discussion about sex, the audience starts feeling a bit timid (especially for those that bring their kids to an adult comedy show) but in this case, this is strictly adult humor at its finest.
Mitch Fatel has no problems discussing his love for women and sex that nothing is left out. He'll get comedy about everything...the breasts, the vagina, the butt...you name it, his comedy routine has included it.
Needless to say, it all comes down to whether or not you're into this style of comedy. In a way, I was skeptical before because typically other comedians who have tried to do a comedy routine with more than 15-minutes based on sex, it just seems as if it didn't fit into their routine or that the audience was not feeling it. But the thing is, with Mitch Fatel...knowing that his comedy is 100% sex-driven, you know what you're going to get and just watch and have a good time.
Overall, "Mitch Fatel is Magical" is absolutely perverted...and satisfaction is guaranteed!

Is that a sparkle in his eye or is he just confused? With his innocence and friendly demeanor, Mitch quickly engages the audience and then catches them off guard with his mixture of mischievous dialogue and off color comments. While laughing at observations only Mitch can get away with we are left wondering if he truly understands what he just said. We never really know.

In this Funny "because it's true" style Comedy, the laughter starts as soon as the show begins! George does not hold back on this one, with his comedic take on the Latino and White Culture ways of doing things. His hillariouse political non sense views on Pres. Bush, "FTP" and Gov. Arnold Schwartzanager, are a MUST SEE!
Top it all off with those Certain family memembers we all know we have, from the worn out Aunt who's still wearing them disco thongs, to Grandma's Dimensia! All in all if you're looking for a good laugh, George Lopez's America's Mexican is Gauranteed to Deliver!!!

How big are muffins going to get before we join hands across America?!?!?
Kevin James - Sweat the Small Stuff has to be the funniest stand-up that I have seen in all my years, and it's not just funny when you watch it either! When you get excited about having exact change at the drive through, or when you see your food coming at a restaurant you'll know why!You just can't go wrong with this DVD, you will watch it over and over and over again and still laugh till you drop. Then you'll go to the airport and laugh even more when you see some of the things in real life! I Highly recommend this DVD to anyone who likes to laugh, you don't have to be a Kevin James fan to enjoy his stand up comedy. You'll end up buying this for your friends, family (97% family friendly), and neighbors and they will love you for it!
The bonus material has some appearances of Mr. James on the Daily Show with Jon Stewart, which are pretty fun too. Kevin is like the fun brother inlaw that gives you a reason to attend those dreaded family functions.
Kevin James rated number 89 on Comedy Centrals 100 funniest stand up comedians, IMHO he's WAY funnier than that, he should have ranked in the low teens!
When I'm mad and someone asks for a phone number, I use BAD phone number rhythm, just to annoy them and it makes me feel better. Thanks Kevin!

My colleagues and I went to see this show live. If you have seen the 45 mins video online that has been circulating for a while, you are going to love this one as well.
This is new material, and very funny. He talks about many ethnic groups, makes fun of them, and knows how to make fun of himself. His accents are impeccable and if you have been exposed to any Asian cultures - you are up for an awesome treat.
I have sent it to already 5 friends (oh yeah, buy the DVD..Support him)

Gabriel Iglesias: I'm Not Fat... I'm Fluffy Review

Gabriel Iglesias: I'm Not Fat...  I'm Fluffy
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The comedian known as the "Fluffy Man". Gabriel Iglesias is one of the hottest comedians out there. Latino flair and hilarious delivery, from his voice impressions to jokes about his weight or personal issues, he knows how to get the audience laughing from beginning to end. There is no slow down in deliver, Iglesias is just hilarious!
Iglesias is known from being the finalist of the fourth season of "Last Comic Standing" in 2006 but in 2007, it was the success of his 2nd special Comedy Central 2007 DVD "Hot & Fluffy" (which sold over 300,000 copies) which would propel Gabriel Iglesias as a comedian that can sell out live performances and also comedy DVD's.
Earlier in the year, Iglesias released a double album CD titled "We Luf Fluffy" from performances from 2006 & 2008 and now he returns with a new DVD titles "I'm not Fat...I'm Fluffy" which was recorded in El Paso.
The tracklist on this DVD are as follows:
1. Return to El Paso
2. Nickelodeon
3. Oh Hello No!!
4. I Hear the Bell
5. New Daddy
6. I Do Voices Everywhere
7. Obama
8. My Girl
9. Cop Story 1
10. USO
11. Copy Story 2
12. Cakes and More Cakes
13. Dropping Frankie Off
14. DDR
15. Disney
16. Car Was Stolen
On his latest DVD, "I'm Not Fat...I'm Fluffy", Iglesias is literally on top of his game delivery joke after joke. From sharing stories of his return to El Paso and talking about a time he got drunk and ended up at an alternative gay bar to his first major gift from Nickelodeon to jokes about his personal life with his girlfriend and her son, Gabriel Iglesias's performance is just hilarious and magnificent.This time around, because of the family experiences that he has to share, these are situations that people can relate to and again, the voices he does is just top notch as he is able to switch voices on command and just be surprised when you hear it.
But you cold tell that his relationship with his girlfriend's son Frankie has brought new life to his routine and the fact that he can take those personal experiences and make them funny is just what makes the "Fluffy Man" so wonderful to watch on stage and he doesn't have to get nasty or profane to make the audience laugh.
VIDEO & AUDIO:
"Gabriel Iglesias - I'm Not Fat...I'm Fluffy: Live From El Paso" is presented in widescreen. There are several angles closeup, stagewise, behind the audience and from a stage angle to showcase the audience at the front. But overall, editing is well-done and stage setup is simple with pretty cool looking for the backdrop at the Plaza Theatre in El Paso, Texas. Simple and clean. Lighting is well-done and for the most part, editing is good, no quick cuts to make the viewer dizzy. Overall, a job well-done.
Audio is presented in Dolby Digital and audio is clear and understandable. Audience can be heard quite well. Personally, I had my receiver set on stereo on all channels to have a more immersive soundstage in the room.
SPECIAL FEATURES:
"Gabriel Iglesias - I'm Not Fat...I'm Fluffy: Live From El Paso" comes with the following special features:
* Deleted Scene: High School Reunion - (7:45) A deleted scene in which Gabriel had to stop his routine because parts of the towel (lint) was all over his face and thus it hurt the pacing. But Gabriel manages to take the situation and make it humorous for the audience.
* Fluffy's Friends Hit the Stage: Martin Moreno - (4:59) Martin jokes about getting older and also today's young Latino guys who are wearing tight pants, tight shirts, plucking their eyebrows and how they are looking effeminate.
* Fluffy's Friends Hit the Stage: Noe Gonzalez - (4:09) Noe's comedy is more adult-oriented. Noel jokes about his size and the concept of size.
* Onstage Q&A With the Fans - (8:07) Gabriel Iglesias answers questions from his fans.
JUDGMENT CALL:
Gabriel Iglesias is definitely one of the most entertaining comedians today. Where Latino comedians such as George Lopez and Paul Rodriguez represented the 80's and 90's, Gabriel Iglesias is a comedian that entertains people of all ages. From jokes about video games and his family to jokes about sweating on stage and how it starts to smell like chicharones. He just makes you laugh and laugh some more and this is what I found most interesting, this is probably one of the few Comedy Central DVD's, if not the first where the comedy routine is quite clean. Granted, he may be saying things in Spanish but in English... it's a clean routine.
If anything, this is a comedian who cares about his fans and he tells everyone straight up, if you see him at a restaurant, say hi. How he is onstage and in real life are the same person and the fact that he gives that Q&A after his performance in order to get the fans a chance to know more about him, goes to show how Iglesias is such a class act. Positive personality but knows how to make the audience laugh...he's a talented comedian.
Also, I have to say that "I'm Not Fat...I'm Fluffy: Live from El Paso" was a performance where he manages to keep the same excitement going from beginning to end. His delivery is smooth, continuous and for the most part, just fantastic.
There's nothing negative about this Comedy Central DVD at all. If you thought "Hot & Fluffy" was a phenomenal DVD, then you have to give "I'm Not Fat...I'm Fluffy: Live from El Paso" a try because this is a fantastic comedy DVD.
Highly recommended!

ATTENTION CONTEST ENTRANTS!! For those of you submitting reviews - be sure to read the official rules here:
[...]
As for the DVD itself - what I love about Kevin Nealon and this special in particular, is that he can be funny without being crass. Some might find that odd given his often obscene character: Doug Wilson on "Weeds". Butwhile his "Weeds" persona is hilariously funny in its own right - it seems to be far from Kevin's true comedic talent.
With his decades in the business its no surprise that he's a real stand-up comedy pro. He drops dry, comedic, one-line, non-sequiturs with complete ease. And his stage persona is immediately likable, he's the kind of guy you just wanna sit and have lunch with.
It's easy to go blue and curse for laughs... thankfully Kevin Nealon doesn't need to go there. So give him a shot and Hear Him Out already!
