- Filmed at Denver's Paramount Theatre in 1996, this DVD is Sinbad's most anticipated stand-up comedy concert. The DVD opens with the Voices of Faith Choir and Sinbad's 'singing debut' - he's off-key and offbeat! 'Rejected' by the choirmaster, he is told to stick with comedy. This self-styled monologue comments on the perils of skiing, parasailing during a bad vacatio
Movie Reviews of Sinbad: Son of a Preacher Man
Movie Review: Awful DVD that edits out the funny bits
Summary: 1 Stars
This DVD is 44 minutes of the medium funny bits, but 16 minutes of the funniest stuff has been cut from the original hour long HBO special?!??!
So much has been cut out, for example:
The old man dating a young girl, the nasty dancing, the old man with one good leg. The audience is roaring with laughter, but they cut it out for this DVD? I know because I had copied the HBO special on VHS way back when, so compared it to this awful DVD edition.
The woman that comes on stage for a hug and he feels her hair to see if it is real. Everyone is crying with laughter. The minor incident with the druggie white-shirted dude in the balcony, then Sinbad mimicing the guys behind him, "he BETTER sit down, is what he BETTER do..." Then people waiting for someone to step on their foot. Again, lots of laughs.
Introductions of his parents are missing as well. They left the beginning choir sequence in, but cut out way too much funny stuff.
And the funniest is the little girl that wants an autograph, then Sinbad setting her up with the 12 year old boy, who jumps up out of his seat. Great stuff, not on the DVD.
My broadcast version from HBO is 60 minutes. And the back of the this DVD case says 60 minutes, but the version on the DVD is 44 minutes. So 16 minutes of the funniest bits have been edited. This makes no sense. A 1 hour show fits on a DVD easily. There was no special copyright music, or dirty material in the stuff taken out, why was it done?
Find a friend who copied the whole hour comedy special off of HBO, pop in the VHS, and laugh. This DVD with 16 minutes edited out, will just make you sad.
This was a great comedy special when it aired on HBO, but this is the worst DVD version ever. Avoid like the plague.
