Very disappointing...

Plenty to Like, Plenty to Dislike

The acting in this movie is really good.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

WARNING: "Dave Foley: Relatively Well" is a very, very adult stand-up act. Not only is the f-bomb dropped repeatedly, but there is LOTS of talk about sex--very graphic talk. It's among the more graphic stand-up acts you can see, actually. I am warning you about this because this is NOT a video to show your kids, mother or Father Jenkins! So, be careful who you invite to watch with you! Now, as for the video itself, I was very surprised to see Foley doing such a routine as he's known mostly for starring in "The Kids in the Hall", "News Radio" and "A Bug's Life". And, in many ways, it ISN'T exactly a stand-up. Much of the time, it sounds more like Foley is working out his own serious emotional issues as he talks--such as the inadequacy of his own sex life, why he hates his ex-wife so much and bad sex. The term 'too much information' often came to mind as I sat and watched this. As for the rest, much of it is funny and some of it is very offensive (deliberately so)--such as his initial talk about homosexuality and God. So, while it has its funny moments, just be careful about this one--it's bound to make many of you very uncomfortable.
