Product Description

Live stand-up routine from comedian Alex Thomas, with a difference. As the theatre starts to pack out for Alex's much-hyped live show, the outrageous comedian finds that he can't actually get to the venue in time. Taking his hustling skills to the streets, Alex does his best to deliver himself, and his jokes, to the theatre on time.

1.0 out of 5 stars I left my smile at the counter 22 Sep 2002
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
I've seen this brother on Jamie Foxx now defunct show and on other features. Although it was a small part, I loved him in "Two Can Play That Game". So imagine my enthusiasm when I saw he had his own comedy routine on DVD at my local store. I rushed home to view it only to find I didn't as much as let out one yelp! No tee hee hee or slap of the knee. In two words "Not Funny". Alex Thomas stunk big time on this DVD. So run, skip and walk fast past this selection. As far as the Platinum Series goes get "Michael Colyar's Project". Now that is hilarious.

1.0 out of 5 stars A Disappointment 26 Feb 2004
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
I've seen quite a few comedy specials over the years and this has got to rank up there with Jerry Seinfeld as one of the worse. The DVD cover compared this special to Eddie Murphy's Delirious and Chris Rock's Bigger and Blacker. You gotta be kidding me. This comes no where close. I think I chuckled once. I really wanted to like it, but it just wasn't funny.

The mark of a great comedian is that s/he talks about what people can relate to. Alex Thomas talks about random things that few can relate to and at times even contradicts himself. He talks about how much he hates all the cussin' in today's raps, yet his comedy is filled with F and N words. Not that there's anything wrong with that...it just wasn't funny. Bottomline, don't waste your time or money with this one. Even the cameo by Tyra Banks couldn't save this DVD.
