Summary: Whe God Created Eddie....
Review: What can I say? More James Mason and Sean Connery; more toasters and hoovers and more laughs than ever. Here's a man who takes the important issues in life - and talks about them; then takes life's everyday matters - and completely elaborates them! An absolute stunner, but watch out for the evil giraffes!!

Summary: Ummmm...yeahhhhhh
Review: Ah, the fantabulous Mr Izzard! A master at stream of conciousness comedy, he can take the oddest things and make them hilarious. Animals with long ears, jam, beekeeping, and any number of incongruous things. Perhaps now that he's won some recognition by nabbing two Emmys for "Dress To Kill", America will sit up and take more notice of this amazingly talented man!

Summary: Eddie Izzard Rules
Review: Eddie Izzard is an unusual and hilarious comedian, combining intellect and humor for a delightful hour and a half of comedy. This guy is funny and, although my mom likes this guy, yours may not. That is to say, that he does use the F word freely. But it's not wanton use of foul language born of comedic laziness but it might bother some.

Summary: Eddie is Awesome!
Review: The Executive Transvestite hits gold with Glorious. His mixture of zany humor, hilarious physical comedy, bizarre sound effects and screwy impersonations truly make him one of a kind.Hilarious throughout, but my very favorite is the encore where he takes on techcology. It must be heard to be believed! If you love Eddie, this is a must-have!

Summary: Gloriously under-rehearsed
Review: What makes Eddie Izzard work for me is the way in which he's able to be both grand and self-deprecating simultaneously. From the opening chords of music, carefully choreographed against a light show more common to rock stars than comics, GLORIOUS puts you on notice that this ain't just a guy with a mike. And indeed the reaction of the crowd to Izzard's spotlit entrance makes you believe that you are witness to royalty. Until he speaks. And then you realize that he's just a guy. In drag. Who hasn't really rehearsed all that much. Thank God. Rehearsal would only cloud things with certainty. Izzard attempts majesty-GLORIOUS is essentially a tour of the Bible's greatest hits-but doesn't mind if he forgets how to get there. He frequently looks spoilt for choice, slowly deciding where he should go next. And this is perhaps where he's at his most charming. Sometimes he seems liable to fall off the trapeze he's built for himself. But his gaffes are incorporated into his act to the point that you find yourself actively HOPING he'll screw up, just so you can witness his escape. And that's his secret. By screwing up and laughing about it, he proves himself uniquely able to get an audience on his side. Far from being simply a hilarious way to spend a couple of hours, GLORIOUS should be required in freshman communication classes at college. It's masterful public speaking masquerading as comedy. [VHS Notes: The recording here is of fine quality. The audio technicians were dead on target. Oddly, though, the choice of venue might have resulted in a performance that isn't as universally understandable as the show was in its original form. For reasons obscure, what had been a mostly off-Broadway, American show was recorded for posterity before a British audience. He's clearly energized playing to a home crowd, but if you were hoping this would capture the great live show you saw in New York, prepare to be slightly disappointed. Non-Britons definitely lose something in the translation. Also, parents should be cautioned that the language is probably unsuitable for younger viewers, though it doesn't sink to the level of gratuitous vulgarity in my estimation. Some parents may object to liberties taken with the Bible, but I think his act just proves the point of how central the Bible is to western civilization.]

Summary: Get other Glorious add-ons
Review: This is a great video, but if you get the Glorious tape that Eddie sells on his official merchandise site, you get extra stuff on the tape like "Lust for Glorious." Make sure you select the option for North America or you'll get a PAL version by mistake.

Summary: Izzard at the top speed.. none better.
Review: Get this item.. pre order it.. you don't need to care what they do to it on DVD, if they only left if like the VHS then it'd be worth it. This is classic Izzard in stunning form. You owe it to yourselves to find out about the cats.. to hear things about the bible you've never imagined.. it seems like a stream of thought and you find yourself surprised when you look back and see these threads interwoven into something wonderful. Even stranger will be the conversations you have with people following this, you'll find you can identify other Izzard fans and onlookers will be confused when a small comments about cats will have people in hysterics Ok I'm a fan, I admit it, this is the next best thing to him live. If you liked the 'Dressed to kill' then you'll love this. B] PS. roll on this release and I hope the rest of the back catalogue too

Summary: Eddie's "Glorious"
Review: While not as sharply hysterical as his more recent "Dressed to Kill," this is a VERY funny video. The sound quality is also far better than on the "Glorious" audio cassette tape (where the audience applause often drowns him out). If you liked "D.T.K.," this is a gotta-have-it purchase.

Summary: Buy this one quickly!
Review: Like most other Americans, I first discovered Eddie Izzard on his HBO special "Dressed to Kill". Ever since then, I've been trying to absorb anything and everything associated with Eddie! I bought his video for "Glorious" and anxiously awaited his razor tongue and lightening quick delivery. I was not disappointed! Though the material is not quite as funny as "Dressed to Kill", this is definately a MUST HAVE for any Izzard fan. I find myself quoting bits from this show almost everyday. It seems that his material only gets better with each show. If your looking for an introduction into the world that is Eddie Izzard, then you must buy this video.
