Movie Reviews of Brian Regan: Standing Up
Movie Review: "If You Need Me I'll Be Up In The Clouds!"
Summary: 5 Stars
I first saw Brian Regan perform live, and had no idea what to expect. I was delighted to find a comic who was not only hilarious but clean. Brian is able to take everyday incidents and relate them in a manner so funny that it really must be seen to be appreciated. As an airline pilot, I was especially amused by his observations on the world of commercial aviation: a typical announcement from the Captain explaining a delay turns into "...Somebody put our engine in upside down, and there's only one tool in our galaxy that can fix this, and it's in Madagascar." (The discussion of the "essentials kit" is also not to be missed.)
Brian talks about his kids and children's entertainment quite a bit. I was very fond of the routines involving a pitch meeting for the song "I'm the Map" on "Dora the Explorer," as well as family outings to kid-friendly places ("Could there be a less stressful job than working in a butterfly pavilion?") Popular culture is rightly skewered from political advertisements, to brainless members of the press corps, and even highbrow PBS favorite "Nova," all to great effect.
The special is only about 40 minutes long, but fear not, there are good DVD extras, including the encore from the live show and a 30 minute Comedy Central special with great and totally different material. (The discussion of trifocals is especially amusing: "Is that a fly on my nose? Is that a comet?")
This is a great DVD at a great price; I highly recommend it and I especially recommend seeing Brian live if you get the chance: you will not be disappointed.
