Whether it’s parading around on stage in a frenzy or breaking out into one of many possible impressions/accents, it simply does not secure any better than Robin Williams Live when it comes to gut-wrenching laughs.

Williams goes all out in all of his live performances. This particular night he performs live on Broadway (the culmination of a 20+ city national tour, and marking the conclusion of his triumphant, and much-heralded return to the “stage” in over 16 years) . And what is the verdict??? BRILLIANCE!! The same designate of raunchy, charismatic, no holds-barred, yet very smart humor Williams has been known for.

ONE THING NEEDS TO BE POINTED OUT: Williams’ energy is unparalleled in his stand-up work and is NOTHING like his theatrical roles (from Flubber to Insomnia), which only seem to stifle the madman lurking beneath. With uncensored, and essentially unscripted stand-up, Robin is able to bid his Just SELF. However, this is not some mindless rant… Williams seems to emerge from a shell he’s been keeping himself in… commentating on social and political issues of the day (from foreign relations, biological warfare, sex, and even sports) .

Where this “movie” truly earns 5 STARS is in Williams’s performance itself. Sadly, comics today go through “ho-hum” HBO specials like candy (I will not name names), giving audiences and viewers 60-65 minutes. Williams goes non-stop for 2 hours!! And as a result becomes so drenched in sweat by the kill, you originate to wonder how he’s smooth standing!

Material-wise, I feel there is no one better, with Williams delivery of quips, jokes, and punchlines only rivaled by George Carlin, and the shows of Eddie Murphy from the early to mid 1980s.

The DVD package, as many other DVDs seem to nowadays, comes with more than anyone could have expected, with behind-the-scenes broadcasts, and a plump interview with the maestro himself. The report and sound quality are advantageous and nothing seems to have been lost in the transfer.

Bottomline: though perhaps vulgar at some points, I reflect that ANYONE with at least a partially commence mind and a adore for laughs will savor this movie. Lift it from my mother (a 52 year-old Frenchwoman not necessarily in tune with “hip society”) sitting crying from laughter, “He is the best!”

Robin Williams’ laugh-riot HBO Special is a no-holds-barred comedy classic and a fitting document of the greatest funnyman of our generation. A master of expeditiously and enraged storytelling and 3-dimensional characters, Williams’ genius is on bulky explain for nearly two hours. The comedian’s charm is evident – he leaps from joke to joke, each bit infused with warmth, irony and his now-trademark stream-of-consciousness dialogue. He draws on contemporary themes and hits every punchline like a concert pianist at the peak of his invent. Never before has Williams been so accessible or hysterical and this special guarantees unlimited guffaws and side-splitting routines. He’s sweaty and raunchy, childlike and obsolete all at once. Parents may want to keep this DVD for personal viewing, since some bits are drenched in cross adult humor, though Williams never offends – he gives his all and succeeds. Best of all, the Broadway event gets better on declare viewings (rare as that is for comedy) so that like Lucille Ball before him (assume grape-stomping, vitavitavegimin and chocolate assembly lines) the bits he delivers renew themselves time and time again. If laughter is lacking in your life, do yourself a favor and use two hours with the Oscar-winning master of comedy.
