Purely Joyful Movie!

Don't listen to the negative reviews

Boring, over-political, tech fuzed mess

Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

This was the first show that I saw for Eddie, and I really cried from laughing, I had tears coming down my checks, and by the time the show finished, my mouth and stomach were hurting me from laughing. I have seen this show over 1o times, and I still laugh every time I watch it, although I know every word he will say, its just the way he says it, he is just brilliant, so intelligent, he addresses general issues that everyone would laugh about, and he dose it in such a way, that you can actually see what he is talking about, because he gives so much details into the small things, and he always finishes a story, even if that story had 3 or 4 stories in the middle of it, I would recommend this DVD for anyone who really wants to laugh from the heart. Its one of the funniest things I have ever seen in my life.

Here is another video of Englands best stand up comic and athough very funny it is not the best routine he has done. (check out Dressed to Kill).We do meet some of Eddie's reccuring themes,James Mason, Mrs Badcrumble and for some reason Mr Izzard has a bit of an obssession with Jam in the video but we wont hold that against him! His religous ramblings are very funny and quite true when you sit and think about it. If your a fan you will love "Glorious" , if your a first time viewer of Eddie Izzard try one of his other videos first. 7 out of 10.

Not quite as polished as Dress to Kill, Glorious is still a good example of the quick wit and intelligent observations that Izzard is known for. The quality of the video interferes with the viewer's enjoyment but his commentary still shines through. Moving from the Bible to the Trojan War with side trips through giraffe impressions, you have to see this to truly appreciate Izzard's creativity. Any fan of thought-provoking comedy is in for a good time with this video.

Eddie Izzard is the smartest stand up I have seen since the early George Carlin material. He leaves no sacred topic untouched (particularly religion). I saw his HBO special, Dress to Kill, and ordered Glorious as soon as I knew about it. It is well worth it.
