Frankie Boyle - Live (DVD)

...am an avid fan of Frankie Boyle. Ever since he first appeared on Mock the Week I've followed him closely. His style of comedy is brilliant and to put it bluntly, he steals the show on Mock the Week. He tells it straight and isn't afraid of offending anybody. This is the guy that blows political correctness out of the window. I waited with anticipation and excitement for the release of this DVD, I even pre-ordered it, which is something I am not known ...
...audience members, the few anecdotes Frankie did make were extremely funny and in my opinion, observational humour is one of the only ways to make a Stand up show watchable for the hour or so these comedians are on stage. Definitely something Frankie should include in his next stand up tour (assuming there is another) There is no flow to his act. He changes topics like an 18 year old girl changes shoes. Out of nowhere, he can change topic from illnesses ...

Review of Frankie Boyle - Live (DVD)

Frankie Boyle........no stone is left unturned by Frankie Boyle on his live dvd from Hackney Palace in London. This IS the funniest comedy DVD I have ever seen, all be it I was watching in shock and awe as he picked his way through some...lets say, delicate issues! This is not one for the faint hearted as he makes jokes about everything you shouldn't make jokes about, leaving his audience looking around nervously thinking "can I laugh at that"? ...
...feet! You may have seen Frankie antics on "Mock the week" and if you liked that, you will love this. Worth every penny, but please note, if you don't like swearing in a gutteral Glasweigan accent and lots of it, this is not for you.............personally, I loved it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ...

Review of Frankie Boyle - Live (DVD)

After Watching Frankie on Mock the week I had to check his DVD out as in my my opinion he is one of the funniest comedians on the BBC at the moment. The DVD was taken from his live Tour of 2008 in the Hackney Empire Theatre. Content: The show is very original and Frankie interacts with the audience a lot, even giving them the oppertunity to ask him questions in the latter part of the show. Although sometimes harsh and perhaps a bit rude, it is still ...
...so it is a definate buy! He also tells some amusing stories about the goings on in his tour of 2008 The extra features on this DVD includes a behind the scenes tour diary which is very amusing to watch. Extra features also include Sketches from BBC3 comedy Rush Hour which are very funny. the last feature on the DVD is the " Drug Experiment " which is an audio format which is a little weird but still had me laughing alot. ...

Review of Frankie Boyle - Live (DVD)

Frankie Boyle is a comedian who I have grown to like more and more through his appearances on Mock the Week and so I decided that getting a chance to see him having a full show of his own would be brilliant and so I got hold of this dvd and sat ready for the laughs. So is this the best ever comedy experience from a comedian at the top of his game? Well you will laugh at the jokes and yes Frankie delivers his usual top quality gags with the perfect ...
...how methodical the show and Frankie himself is with him obviously having worked hard to get his show to a perfect delivery standard and just doing it over and over. The jokes are delivered in the same way with the same expression, the same timing and this leads to a slight feeling of disappointment. I don't want to put off those fans of great comedy as Frankie is truly a great but prepare yourself for foul mouthed and abusive comedy from the potential ...

Review of Frankie Boyle - Live (DVD)

...me off a comedian but Frankie is so sharp and unrelenting that it feels like a guilty pleasure to hear him ripping people to pieces. I wouldn't suggest watching it with your mum or if any ladies are present but all my pals loved it! So much so that I had to hide it from my flat mate so he didn't keep watching it and screaming with laughter! There's a great audio extra on the DVD too, where Frankie gets together with a few pals and tries the salvia ...

Review of Frankie Boyle - Live (DVD)

I remember watching Frankie Boyle on the hit tv show 'Mock The Week', and just laughing so much. This DVD is him just rolled up into one with all the nasty one lined gags that are sure to make you either cringe in digust or make you laugh your head off. He performs at London's Hackney Empire, where he surely puts the audience straight into the deep end of his comedy genius and brutal comments, which he is just the best at. His razor sharp wit is ...
...he might say next will be too near the knuckle but even so, you will find it funny no matter what. The best thing about this stand up is how he creates a tension in the audience, as he picks people out and makes jokes about why they are there or 'who is this person your sitting next to?'. Evermore if you like the cheek of Frankies marvelling prowess and his performance of recent events then this is surely goin to make you happy that you bought this ...

Review of Frankie Boyle - Live (DVD)

If you have heard about Frankie Boyle you should definately buy this DVD, and if you haven't heard of Frankie Boyle - You should definately buy this DVD! His unique and offensive stance on comedy is one that personally I find hilarious, perhaps some will find it a bit too harsh, but it has to be taken in good humour. With some stand up DVD's you find that they comedian seems to lack in quantity, Frankie delivers on both Quality and Quantity. Not only does the stand up itself last for a pleasurable amount of time, there are various bonus features on the DVD which are just as funny as the feature presentation. ...
