Review: Eddie Izzard is phenomenal! Every time I watch Glorious, I laugh a little bit more. You too can try to unravel the mysteries of hopscotch, wonder why Noah didn't just go ahead and build the speedboat, and recite the jam-elephants-peanuts jumprope rhyme... but only after you Control-P-Print out your order for this viddeo. Although he hops around from subject to subject like a supercaffeinated rabbit, he performs his routine seamlessly and gracefully -- well, as gracefully as can be expected from a bloke doing a giraffe impression in high heels. A funny, funny, FUNNY man. (Don't drink milk when you're watching.)

Summary: exhaust yourself laughing
Review: Friends rented this for movie night and I had my apprehensions. but... I don't think anyone could put this in their VCR for more than 20 minutes and not be won over by Izzard. What an original! I already crave more, and will not miss his next visit.The show seemed long, but only because halfway through it, I already wanted to go review it, to recall all the funny stuff I'd forgotten. (I'm covered in bees... You forgot to give Maragaret Thatcher a heart...) Smirking even now.

Summary: Eddie rules
Review: Eddie Izzard is the most inteligent and funny comiedian around at the moment. A lot of the other reviewers say D2K is funnier but I have to disagree as they must not have seen Unrepeatable or Definate Article as they are far superior. However if you want to get into the world of Eddie Izzard then watch Glorious first as it is by far the best of all his shows. If your American and you want to play it safe then get D2K as it was filmed in San Francisco and directed more towards a U.S. audience. My advice don't play it safe as Eddie is Glorious.

Summary: Simply "Glorious"
Review: The title of Eddie Izzard's video 'Glorious' is fantastically appropriate; in my opinion not as hilarious as 'Dress to Kill' but still Glorious reveals some incredible gems of Eddie Izzard's comic genius. Being a Briton like Eddie you may think i'm biased; i'm sure the vast majority of the audience for this will be American. However, i sincerely hope that Eddie's influence over the humour of everyone in this country can spread across the pond too. Based on the Old and New Testament, Glorious might not seem to have much promise if that's all you hear of this fantastic gig. However with Eddie behind the mic, you can guarantee every word that comes out of his mouth will have you rolling in your seat. And it does: this is something you will never regret buying, it's so watchable it'll surgically attach itself to your DVD player. Eddie is a God, may his Glory continue.

Summary: No Words Needed
Review: Just buy it. I would have given it more stars if that had been an option. Eddie Izzard is the funniest comedian I have seen in a very long time. This particular performance is several hours long, but when it's over you will be disappointed that he stopped at only one encore. Probably the funniest bit I have ever seen is done completely in french. Who knew?

Summary: Less than the best
Review: Once you have seen "Dressed to Kill" his previous stuff isn't near as good. I guess if I had sen this first, then I would probably have progressed with him.

Summary: Nobody is funnier. NOBODY!
Review: My daughter introduced me to Eddie Izzard. For the first few minutes, I thought, hmm,strange face, nice make-up. After a while I was laughing so hard it hurt, and forgetting all about the make-up.And then I was thinking about how I could bring him into my college classroom to get my students thinking. Then I was finding him very attractive. Since that first time, we show every stranger who walks into the house one of Eddie's tapes. His views on life and politics and history and the bible and sex and squirrels, well on everything is just so unusual and brilliant and so so so funny. God bless you Eddie. The world really needs you right now. To make us laugh --while we can't help thinking.

Summary: The Unknown Python
Review: Eddie Izzard is...an experience. He has quite a range, from serious, bearded actor to one of the world's top comedians (a bizarre combination of Monty Python and Robin Williams, in a dress and makeup...still looking rather butch). He's been hailed in Britain as "The Unknown Python," (and showed up on stage for the first 5 mins of the Colorado Tribute to the Pythons on the HBO special, posing as one until they threw him off...scripted, of course). And, like Dennis Miller, he cross references everything...only he uses more history than pop culture. If they ever release the bloody DVD, I highly reccomend this one...the only one better than this is the one that came after, Dress To Kill. The only fault with Eddie Izzard is that he seems to think that the US consists of NYC & LA...no cities in between get visited when he comes over here. Bad Eddie. No biscut.

Summary: Izzard is Amazing!
Review: Izzard proves that he is the greatest living comedian in this video. While I had first caught glimpses of his act during "Dress Kills" run on HBO, it was this video that proved to me the real genius that is Eddie Izzard. This T.V. Brit takes on every aspect of the human condition and inevitablely leaves you crying for more. His style is such a refreshing contrast from his contemporaries. His use of explicit language, while there, is used not to shock or offend, but as if you were thinking the same thing to yourself and goes by unnoticed (some moralists will have a field day with that concept). In addition, Izzard's use of story and gesture to communicate his perspective on the world makes him better rounded than his New York megastar peer and master of observation comedy, Jerry Seinfeld. Also, Izzard's comedy is not bent on getting to the punch line and making you laugh. Instead, this is a show that is meant to last 90 minutes and makes you want more. I bought this video nearly two years ago and it still gets play in my VCR. This is not one I leave out for show to prove my friends how cool I am; rather, I put it in the VCR to show how cool I am. This is by far one of the best purchases I have made and would gladly buy it for myself again or for a friend. Izzard's humor is irreverent, but classy, intellectual, but slapstick, and hilarious, but hilarious... there is simply no other way to put it. You need him in your home. You really have no idea how much. You'll thank me when you buy it.
