Why so much hype?

Thanks for the memories!

So much average

Good start, but then it gets ruined

I could say that the popular Scottish comedian is a lot better with a beard, this one he doesn't have one, but he does okay in the show full of some funny bits. Billy Connolly here performs his popular stand up routine of telling stories mixing observational and obscure comedy to an audience at London'd Odeon Hammsermith. Subjects he discuss in the show include his trips to America, dogs, chatting up and having sex with women, clothes, Scotland and eating scones, reading a recipe book, a man with a stroke that causes constant swearing, farting, walking in weird ways, football, going into the North Sea, and much more. Billy Connolly was number 16 on TV's 50 Greatest Stars, he was number 8 on The Comedians' Comedian, he was number 1 on Britian's Favourite Comedian, he was number 1 on 100 Greatest Stand-Ups, and he was number 1 on 100 Greatest Stand-Ups 2010. Worth watching!

This guy is up there with Richard Pryor and Eddie Murphy as being one of the funniest dudes around. What makes it all so great is its spontaneity; There's the feeling that none, or very little of this, is really rehearsed. He just gets up on stage, tells his stories, and drifts off on one hilarious tangent after another. At one point, he just breaks down with laughter, mumbling to himself, "what the f*$k am I talking about?". You just can't help but laugh along with him. If this doesn't bring a smile to your face, then nothing will.Caution: If you're easily offended, then you will undoubtedly be offended by this, so avoid. For the rest of us, laugh out loud. The world needs more of it.

Sheer brilliance. Billy Connolly's razor-sharp mixture of bewildered surrealism and ultra-perceptive observational comedy is showcased here. If you're not pained with laughter at the routines on football, swimming and cookbooks, something vital has been removed from your brain. Buy it - it's better therapy than the stuff you get in clinics.
