Product Description
Jimmy Carr is one of the biggest faces in comedy. Literally--he has one of the biggest faces. Following the huge success of "Jimmy Carr Live" and "Jimmy Carr Stand-up", the multi-award-winning Jimmy Carr returns with his third live stand-up DVD, Jimmy Carr - Comedian. Recorded live at London's Bloomsbury theatre, the posh-suited gagster unleashes his rapid-fire wit upon his audience, with jokes that are just too rude for TV. This DVD is Jimmy’s best yet: the main show is over an hour and a half long, and it also contains almost an hour of exclusive bonus material. Jimmy plays to over 200,000 fans every year around Britain, so grab a copy of Jimmy Carr – Comedian if you’d like to see what all the fuss is about. As Jimmy himself explains: "This isn’t a show for the easily offended, it’s not even a show for people who are quite difficult to offend. Essentially, this is a show for people without a moral compass."
Synopsis
Recorded live in 2007, the Jimmy Carr - Comedian (Live) DVD sees funnyman Jimmy Carr sharing his cynical, but always hilarious, take on life's little absurdities. But don't let his deadpan delivery fool you--beneath that air of smug superiority lies a razor-sharp wit that he wields like a comedy Samurai, carving out little gems of sarcasm with each swipe.

I brought this dvd at the very same time as i brought russell brands "doing life" stand up. And when i watched both i remember thinking how the hell is jimmy carrs rated 15 with russell brands an 18 the difference is immense. jimmy carr is soo much more to the knuckle where as russell brands was not even offensive in some parts. however im not here to comnpare jimmy and russell, jimmy wins this dvd contest hands down,,although i havent seen jimmys new 2010 one i have all his others and think this one is the best although they all come close. this dvd is perfect is u like quick witted on liners aswell as banter from the audience where he leaves them speechless. its a great dvd and not for the easily offended. hes like a posh chubby brown.

...It really is that simple. Personally I think Jimmy Carr is a genius. I like the variety of his one-liners; a lot of them I have to stop & think, swiftly followed by an episode of laughter and others are your typical irony and sarcasm. What I think makes him PARTICULARLY GOOD COMEDIAN, is the way he interacts with the audience & his ability to reduce a heckler to nothing in a split second, which comes across in the DVDs as well as live. If you have his first two DVDs, heres my particular ranking:
1st - Jimmy Carr Live
2nd - Jimmy Carr Comedian (this one)
3rd - Jimmy Carr Stand-up
...although it is worth noting it's a tough decision, they are all of a great standard of comedy! Hope you laugh as much as I did.

I used to love Carr but he has gone off my comedy list, i used to particularly love his typically vulgar humor but find myself a lot less fond of the man more recently

Hilarious, jimmy carrs' sharp, witty and often very blue stand up, that will have you rolling in the aisles.

I have now seen all Jimmy Carr's stand up DVD's and this is by far my favourite. Quick witted and one you could watch over and over.

completely not funny, very disappointed. I was looking forward to watching this and turned it off after 15 minutes. Even the audience did not laugh much. Read more

Superb Comedy!
Easily one of the funniest stand up comedy shows I have ever seen (And I've seen a lot)! Anyone with "no moral compass" will undoubtedly enjoy this DVD. Money well spent!

This is a great show from Jimmy Carr. His stuff is ofcourse offensive but he has a way of delivering it that lets you know it's only a joke. Read more
