Description: You know him as an hilarious television star from "Roc," "In Living Color," and "The Jamie Foxx Show." You know him as a tremendous movie star from "Booty Call," "The Players Club," "Bait," "Any Given Sunday" and "Ali." And when you watch his sold-out performance at the Paramount Theater in Oakland, California, you'll know him as one of the world's funniest comedians. Originally produced for HBO Television, this comedy special leaves no doubt that Jamie Foxx is at the top of his game!
He just might need it I might try to kill his a** for dropping this trash. I saw this garbage not too long ago and this is by far the worst stand up comedy I ever saw. Jamie Foxx is a talented actor and thats just about it. I didnt laugh one time and I was half drunk watching this. I cant believe he actually gets paid for this. I should be paid for watching this s***. Amazon really needs to bless us with a zero star option because it is most needed.
Not funny Jamie Foxx is very talented AS AN ACTOR, but he does not even hold a candle to the top comedians.
If you watched this and thought it was funny, then do yourself a favor and see more stand-up comedians. Foxx's routine gets put to shame by the big names in the industry.
If you are just a Jamie Foxx fan and want to see him perform, then by all means by this DVD. But if you are searching for a quality comedic routine that you can laugh at, look elsewhere.
Not Funny I was very disappointed with this show. Having read the reviews I decided to buy the dvd, now I feel cheated. The jokes are weak, his inaccurate depiction of Africa and his off-the-mark African accent were more annoying than amusing. Jamie was crude, disgusting and even more disappointingly, not funny at all. He will look back at this and feel acknowlege that it wasn't his best performance. He had such good material to base his jokes on but he flopped quite badly. I do not recommend this dvd at all.
Racist Jokes Unfunny Let's face it; some of the jokes are funny. The one about Mike Tyson been like someone else's bulldog let loose in the room was really funny. I also found the bit about Bill Clinton and Osama Bin Laden also funny. However, Jamie dwells too much on the fart joke. How can you tell a fart joke for 6 minutes? After 2 min it becomes worn and so "unfunny". Why does he repeat himself so much with that line, "I am not saying she's a crackhead, just a bit crackish"? It sounds very rehearsed after the second time. If it were only for these errors I would have found the jokes altogether acceptable.
What I found completely unacceptable were the racist jokes that he made against Arabs. I am black myself but found some of the jokes about Islam and Arabs to be in bad taste. Jamie could not even get an Arab accent right. C'mon, guys the accent Jamie pulled was an Indian accent and not an Arab accent.
I kept asking myself, "what would black people do if a white comedian (say Robin Williams) makes the same crude jokes about black people?" Would it be acceptable?". I think not. I am sure the black press would slaughter Robin if he did. I wish to call a spade a spade. Nonsensical, crude racist jobs against any ethnic group (black, white, Asian and yes Arabs) are not funny. They degrade and demean. For not even managing to get an Arabic accent, Jamie deserves 2 stars from me.
Jamie Foxx - I think I Might Need security Jamie is the bomb. There is none funnier than him and no matter how many times I watch it, the jokes are still fresh and funnier than before. Love him,love him, love him. A definite must have.
