Overrated

It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

I don't know who these people are who actually go to see this guy perform his stupid ventriloquist (spelling? sorry!) act but this comedy is so bad it makes me want to vomit a little bit into my own mouth. Who actually finds this funny, seriously? Predictable old jokes we all know the punch lines to and half the stuff has the puppets out in the real world or whatever and they remove Jeff Dunham from the scenes with CGI or whatever so what is the point? Isn't the reason people watch ventriloquists to that they can see the talent of talking and moving the puppet without moving their lips? I don't know because I don't watch this kind of thing I find it incredibly unfunny. As the other reviewer said this kind of talent died out like 50 years ago so it's infuriating to see this on my TV! Please cancel this garbage!

Ventriloquists are generally unfunny. It's a comedic art form that died out about a half-century ago; the fact that Jeff Dunham is so bad at ventriloquism only makes this show's existence even more insulting.I don't know how he managed to lure so many people in with his "specials" and break so many records in the process, but he's a pretty crappy comedian and an even worse ventriloquist. (Honestly, half his face moves when the puppets are "talking.") His comedic taste is on par with the Larry the Cable Guys of this world. The premiere episode of this show featured a special guest appearance by...Brooke Hogan. 'Nuff said.It's unbearably unfunny and barely tolerable. Thankfully, despite a record-breaking debut episode, Comedy Central canned this trash after its scathing reviews (check out MetaCritic's score) and declining ratings.Unfortunately, I doubt this is the last we'll see of Jeff Dunham.

Ventriloquist Jeff Dunham,'s new half-hour show on Comedy Central is not nearly as good as his taped concerts that also run on CC, but at least the show is all-new material with a twist. Dunham's puppets are put into ridiculous situations, like having Achmed the Dead Terrorist perform as a standup comic and the indescribable purple thing called Peanut going on a date with Hulk Hogan's busty daughter. Some simple, Muppet-like special effects allow the puppets to appear independent of Dunham. My favorite moment to date had cranky old Walter undergoing a physical exam. Dunham abruptly walks into the exam room, only to confront a naked Walter. They look at each other and both start screaming, more or less. In a more recent episode, Dunham pulled off the dirtiest joke I have ever heard on a commercial station during prime time, perhaps a little too dirty considering who might be watching at that hour. Dunham's humor tends to be risqué, however, so all is forgiven. In the same episode, he and his jive-talking black puppet enter an urban barbershop in search of blacks to be added to Dunham's traditionally all-white audience. Dunham does a couple of lame bits for the folks, like saying: "Don't you hate it when your tux gets caught in your Volvo car door?" He is greeted with dead silence, of course. Outside, Dunham's wall-eyed, buck-toothed redneck puppet has set up a table where he is offering to pay passing blacks to watch the show. This crazy, Texas-born comic with a slight lisp made $30 million last year! So he must be doing something right.
