Movie Reviews of Brian Regan: Standing Up
Movie Review: Clean And Hysterical!
Summary: 5 Stars
I had never heard of Brian until searching around Amazon for comic standup that wasn't filthy. I read the reviews and I was not disappointed. He takes everyday, normal situations and makes them unbelievably funny, or points out things you would not have thought of. Serving sizes on packages of food for example get the treatment here. My favorite has to be the bit about greeting cards, and a what if situation involving humorous sympathy cards. It could border on tasteless with some comics but he made it so funny I was hanging on the side of my chair. You'll never look at a blank card again without giggling in public.
In some ways he reminds me of Gallagher in some ways, pointing out things we never think about, but are insane/funny. Buy this!
Movie Review: Brilliant Humor-Non-Stop Laughs! And Clean Comedy!
Summary: 5 Stars
Brian Regan Standing up is an outstanding comedy show. He engages with spoken and physical humor that is fresh and familiar. On viewing the show the second time, while laughing constantly, I also noted that his show content is pretty clean-something sort of rare in the comedy business these days. Not a problem to have the kids in the room while he's on, and your teenagers would relate to the edgy tone.
His physicality channels Will Ferrell and Jack Nicholson that leads to a sort of Cosby take on some of the painfully obvious nonsense that is everyday life.
I highly recommend this video, you will want to watch over and over-and you will laugh and laugh and laugh! And then read the instuctions on your
pop tarts!
Movie Review: A Highly Entertaining Performance
Summary: 5 Stars
Brian Regan is a very talented comic, with very good material. He guides you along scenarios with his keen sense of humor and delivery expertise, and really paints a picture that is enjoyable to watch and easy to understand. He uses body language and facial expressions in his act along with wit and a unique comical perspective. I found myself laughing quite often, which is the whole point. I enjoyed one of Brian Regan's past performances very much, which I saw on Comedy Central, and enjoyed this one as well. He keeps it fun and not vulgar, which may be a concern if young ones are around. If you are even slightly familiar with his work and you liked what you saw, you may want to pick up this DVD. He delivers the goods once again.Movie Review: Wonderfully funny and family friendly, too
Summary: 5 Stars
This wonderfully funny DVD is full of laughs, with humor found in the most unlikely places. Topics such as Pop Tarts, letting other drivers merge in traffic, visits to the hospital emergency room, first visits to the local gym, and Dora the Explorer are just a few of the every-day-life experiences that get examined through the lens of Regan's dry wit. Regan's body language, hysterical facial expressions, and impeccable timing add much to the experience as well. And unlike many stand-up comics, Brian Regan manages to get his laughs without once resorting to rude humor or innuendo. This is a DVD we will watch often.
One caution for parents--he does use the phrase "what the hell" a number of times.
Movie Review: FUNNY & CLEAN
Summary: 5 Stars
I had never heard of Brian Regan, then I came across his stand-up special on Comedy Central. He is absolutely hilarious. When I first watched it my Mom was over and I was afraid I'd end up turning it off 10 minutes into the show because of nasty language or crude content. To our delight there was nothing of the kind. And he has priceless facial expressions. He's very similar to Seinfeld - in that his routines focus on the mundane, ordinary things in life, but somehow he manages to make it funny. His bits include subjects such as TV, airlines/airports and politics. Simple ideas - with comical twists - and absolutely no language or sexual references. It CAN be done!
