Movie Reviews of Brian Regan: Standing Up
Movie Review: Funny and clean
Summary: 5 Stars
Brian Regan is a great comedian for the whole family. My wife and kids love walking through the house yelling "What's the score, Brian?" "Snowcone! Whole snowcone for half game!" He's a great guy, and his humor is something you can enjoy with everyone.
If you own his live CD or earlier DVD, you'll find this contains almost all new material. One of the bonus features is his encore in which he does requests from the audience from his material. It's stuff you've heard before, but the funny way he points that out is hilarious ("You're out there going, 'Yep, that's the way I memorized it.'") His first Comedy Central Presents appearance is included and there's no repeats from the "Standing Up" special in it. If this is your first introduction to Brian's comedy, it's a great place to start. Grab his live CD next. The CC Presents half-hour show has some of that material on it, but it's still funny.
I wish there were more comedians out there like Brian. He manages to be funny without ever being vulgar. I don't know why he isn't more popular, but with his CC sponsored national tour maybe he'll finally get the exposure he deserves.
Keep up the great work, Brian!
Movie Review: He hits it out of the park--again!
Summary: 5 Stars
Brian's "I Walked on the Moon" is hilarious. His "Standing Up" is too. Frankly, when I ordered this, I wasn't sure he had enough good, new material for another. But he did not disappoint! There are those who have a few good gags and then... nothin'. Brian has a whole way of looking at the world that amuses and delights. He consistently does what all great stand-up comedians do: reminds us of things that we've all thought at one time or another and takes them to humorous and even insightful extremes. At the heart of his performance, however, is heart. You get the impression that what Brian is doing is really a labor of love. Some comedians are fueled by rage turned into absurdity. Brian, on the other hand, seems more like wonder and, yes, even wisdom turned into joy. His is comedy in the classic sense: it leaves you with the feeling that, in spite of the messiness, troubles, and absurdities of life, it's all going to be alright. Call him the cross-eyed sage or the bellowing Buddha. Brian's smile says, "Yeah, we're all pretty confused about that, but it's okay 'cuz we're all in this together!"Movie Review: Brian Regan: STANDING UP

I have always loved the comedy of Brian Regan ever since I first heard him! Brian Regan is a guy who can put tears in my eyes from laughing so hard! I loved the "STANDING UP" DVD because you actually get two shows on one DVD!!! Brian does "STANDING UP", then you go to special features and there is an encore, where he comes out and lets the audience request some of his older jokes. After the encore, there is another half hour comedy show! Just when you are feeling sad that it is over, you get another 30 minutes of Brian Reagan comedy!!! If I could only buy one DVD, this would be my first one! I have owned it for about a week and I have watched the entire DVD five times and the "STANDING UP" section six times because as soon as I start telling someone about it, they want to see it with me! I highly recommend this DVD along with the Brian Regan Live CD. If you enjoy sarcastic humor at all, you will love Brian Regan!Movie Review: Brian Regan Doesn't Disappoint!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the first time I've SEEN Brian Regan; until now I've only listened to his CD "Brian Regan LIVE" - and BOTH make me laugh, giggle, slap my knees and smile big EVERY TIME I experience them. Brian Regan takes the everyday stuff and turns it into something hilarious! Since it is "everyday stuff" and a lot of it is about remembering the typical things nearly everyone did, said, saw, felt, played, misunderstood, questioned or heard as kids in America, Brian's humor bridges the gaps of age and gender. Childlike, yet mature; silly, yet somewhat intellectual - Brian Regan's humor is accessible to just about everyone. And it's clean without being preachy, political or difficult to understand! He's definitely worth the price of admission. His catch-phrases are contagious and will sweep the nation, without a doubt!
Until next time - Take Luck!!
Movie Review: Another Great Regan DVD
Summary: 5 Stars
Brian Regan is one of the best working comics out there today. Not only is he hilarious he is a clean comic that is very relatable. I went to one of his shows and was sat between some Grandparents and a couple Heavy Metal Guys, if that doesn't show you the wideness of his fan base.
This DVD is great, and it is one you will be able to play over and over and it doesn't get old. It is definetly worth your money. I disagree with another reviewer and think it is on par with his previous DVD "I walked on the moon". The only disappointing thing was the only extras on this dvd was Brian's comedy central special which i've seen, and a brief encore which he does old bits requested by the audience. Still I strongly recommend this dvd, he's a genius!
