Funny no tears formula

Advantages: Non offensive comedy style, intelligent comedian, Michael is warm to the audience and so you relax
Disadvantages: None

I first saw Michael McIntyre on a variety performance when flicking channels and was to be honest not a fan but after seeing him on Mock the Week and feeling that he has developed his style of comedy I decided to give this dvd a shot and was not disappointed. Michael McIntyre is an extremely intelligent comedian who always delivers his style of humour in a way which should make you feel like you are being spoken down to by him but it actually feels ...
...he is. I love watching Michael work as he is not scared to laugh at his own jokes and I was very impressed by his audience interraction which I have seen a lack of with some comedians but he has worked hard on his set and is now certainly at the top of his game. The dvd will deliver laughs and intelligent comedy and you will not walk away feeling like somebody has just stood swearing at you and insulting your inteligence but will infact walk away ...

Review of The Inbetweeners - Series 1 - Complete (DVD)

* Bad Jimmy! *

Advantages: None!
Disadvantages: Everything!

...really know much about this Jimmy Carr , although I remember him being a guest on a television chat show programme (I think it was Charlotte Church's show) and finding him quite funny , and so I decided what he was really like as a stand-up comedian. Jimmy Carr is a British comedian , born in Hounslow , London on 15th September 1972. He has appeared on many Channel 4 television programmes and is now a successful stand-up comedian. He is also a writer ...
...I hadn't seen any of Jimmy Carr's concerts before and so wasn't sure what to expect. I watched for a few minutes , as he told a few jokes , yes the audience laughed their heads off , but I wasn't really enjoying it! First of all , the man himself (I'll come to the jokes later!) is quite anoying after a little while ; he is far too cocky for my liking!) This DVD is certainly not for the easily offended. I don't get offended very easily and enjoy ...

...it has the title of four Christmases. What happens next? Watch the film and you will know it. It is worth. My opinion: ---------------- It was a Christmas movie, but it was a funny one. I really enjoyed this film. I like the leading actors and the story was really good. There were nice twists in it so the end of the film wasn’t obvious. I think Reese Witherspoon is a very talented actress. I have seen her in Legally Blond films and she was brilliant ...
