Movie Reviews of Eddie Izzard - Circle
Movie Review: A hit misses in New York
Summary: 3 Stars
Eddie Izzard is easily my favorite comedian.
But circle, was dissappointing, but I'm going to give Izzard a break. "Unrepeatable" "Definite Article" and "Glorious" were performed in England. And in front of his type of crowd (an english crowd) He's a riot. Because he's an englishman, He talks english, so english people get him. "Dress To Kill" was in San Fransisco. And it was a freaking riot. So Eddie Izzard in New York doing "Circle" should be amazing shouldn't it?
Well, within the first 5 minutes of the show there is a heckler and that throws his rhythm off for the entire night. He start bumbling through his show and tripping over his thoughts but not in the charming way that he does in "Dress To Kill". The crowd is kind of silent and when the crowd is silent Eddie resorts to making fun of the fact that he isn't making them laugh and that just digs his hole deeper. The Death Star Canteen was funny, but it could've been so much better. The entirety of the show is a far cry from what he is capable of and he looked uncomfortable and intimidated throughout. If you adore Eddie Izzard you can't help but love the man, but if you want to laugh your kiester off, I'd try any other Izzard DVD.
Summary of Eddie Izzard - Circle
No one but madcap stand-up comedian Eddie Izzard can spin comic gold out of papal history, monkeys with guns, Jesus preaching to the dinosaurs, and cafeteria food on the Death Star. Circle, taken from his stand-up tour in 2000, doesn't have the astonishingly seamless free-associative flow of Glorious or Dress to Kill, his previous specials--which is to say, he's only intermittently brilliant, instead of supernaturally nonstop brilliant. We'll take what we can get, because Izzard can slip in surprisingly stinging commentary about international politics and religion, yet his impish smile suggests that he's only pointing out the obvious. He tosses out an idea and then plays with it like a cat plays with a mouse, flipping it around, teasing it out, pouncing, and then letting it go, only to sneak back up on it just when you'd forgetten it was there. Cheeky, subversive, and very, very funny. --Bret FetzerLive comedy with the master of sublime weirdness, Eddie Izzard, recorded in New York, 26 June 2000. Also includes a 30 minute behind the scenes documentary about Eddie's US tour.
