Summary: Easily the Best Standup Since Richard Pryor or Eddie Murphy
Review: Although Eddie Izzard is completely different than either of them. His comedy is that good. I bought this video about two years ago and just watched it again last night. It's still funny. Unbelievably funny. His visual creativity and rambling interconnected delivery are completely original. I think the fact that he's a transvestite hurts his mainstream appeal in our uptight nation, but screw the mainstream, BUY THIS VIDEO!!!
Also, this one is his best. Dressed to Kill is good but not as good as glorious and the other two Delirious and Unrepeatable are OK. I would recommend only getting Glorious and Dressed to Kill.

Summary: Stream of laughter
Review: Eddie does it again. This is a must have for any British comedy fan!! In this video he covers everything in his stream of thought comedy. Jumping from one subject to the next... from hopscotch to Noah building the ark to bad pilot fish. Also the often repeated Push me pull you vacuum/lawnmower bits are on this video. The encore by itself is worth the price of this video. 5 stars and a crescent moon to boot. Once you've seen one of his videos you can't get enough of his great (sometimes zany) sense of humor.

Summary: I like my men like I like my coffee-in heels & a shiny suit
Review: I don't care what the others said - I like this one better than Dress to Kill! Not only is he funnier here, he's got a cuter outfit and hairdo. But in all his shows, Eddie Izzard reveals himself to be simply the most adorable person who has ever lived. I watched this one four times on the first weekend after I bought it, and I still get cravings for it throughout the day - just to hear the sound of that sweeper - hoddadadadadah! hoddadadadaaddah! Or to hear "f*ck off, I'm the Queen!"... then later "f*ck off, I'm a bird!" The Swiss guard with his Swiss Army knife - "We have the scissors! You have a thread there, I cut. Dans la poubelle!" and "I went to Cambridge and had 3 good gigs and got into a fight... like you do." Not to mention the look on his face when he says "Jammy Dodgers!" He is almost too amazing to be real. I can't believe I only discovered him in 2003!

Summary: Gloriously Glorious!
Review: I bought this title as I do not yet own a DVD player - GASP! and cannot get my hands on Dress to Kill (DVD only). I very much enjoy Eddie Izzard's humor and his delivery is to die for! His brain must whirr along at the speed of light! As an Anglophile, Izzard's references to all that is British is great fun and a decidely delightful change of pace. I am carried away by his wit and charm and love his interpretation of the Bible to take us down, albeit ancient history, memory lane! His use of profanity is minimal compared to other modern comedians, so most audiences will tolerate him quite nicely. Eddie's a load of fun and I can't wait til I can get my hands on his latest romp into hilarity.

Summary: So..... yeah!
Review: I'm not ordinarily a fan of stand-up comedy, but I caught Eddie on HBO one night (Dress to Kill) and almost died laughing. The next time it aired, I taped it and watched it over and over and over again. I then looked Eddie up online and found "Glorious". I ordered it immediately. "Glorious" was taped about two years prior to "Dress to Kill", and is *almost* every bit as funny. I can't put my finger on exactly why I prefer "Dress to Kill", because both are absolutely side-splittingly, rip-roaringly funny. If you're an Eddie Izzard fan AT ALL, you must OWN this performance, you will not regret it for a single iota of a second. Eddie Izzard can hold his own against Robin Williams, Billy Crystal and Steve Martin in the stand-up realm. He is absolutely pure genious!

Summary: So funny it hurts
Review: If you have never seen Eddie Izzard, treat yourself to Glorious, or Dress to Kill. Brilliant comedic riffing and impeccable timing make Eddie the best comic going. Soooo....yeah.

Summary: Can I really say anymore? Yes I Can!!!!
Review: Are there anymore things that can be said about the genius of Eddie Izzard? I'm not sure, but I'll give it a shot. Mr Izzard is of course a witty, hysterical, genius who can ramble on and on about the randomest of things and drive you into a state of wild laughter talking about your everyday things like how toasters lie to you. I listened to this show on CD for 3 months prior to getting it on VHS and to see it now after all this time is being great. First off, it is not exactly the same as Glorius the CD. Its the same show with more funny bits and really made me appricate Eddie more then I did. I recommend getting this now and order it on DVD this September.

Summary: Fantabulous
Review: This is by far one of the most brilliantly funny stand up shows! Eddie Izzard is dead funny and incredibly witty...he just goes with the world and creates comedy all his own. His recreation of the bible (and others) is FANTABULOUS! This is a must see for EVERYONE!

Summary: Best Working Comedian Today
Review: Eddie Izzard is far and away the best working comedian. He's been compared to Monty Python and Robin Williams, and though he does evoke both of those, he is still a complete original. Watching an Izzard show is like watching a history lecture - an extremely funny, rolling in the aisles history lecture. Izzard is intelligent, extremely knowledgable and his wit is unsurpassed. The only comedians working today who come close to his level are Stella (Michael Showalter, David Wain & Michael Ian Black). Izzard brings some class to comedy. Get your hands on everything he's ever done, including films he's appeared in, he's quite a good dramatic actor too.

Summary: Funny
Review: Not as funny as Dress to Kill. That being said, the toaster routine in this made me laugh harder than I've ever laughed before. It was actually quite embarrassing as I was watching it at a friend's house and I started to cry because I was laughing so hard. I rarely laugh out loud when I watch comedians even though I find things funny...I must laugh on the inside or something. Eddie Izzard makes me not only laugh out loud but continue to laugh until I'm crying. Please turn this into a DVD!! Where on earth do we vote for that??
