What I love about these Blue Collar DVD's is they feature some of the best sets these guys have, but they leave you wanting more and that leads to yet another Blue Collar DVD with, get this, different material and that is really worth the purchase. This is the third installment and its just as impressive as the previous two. Bill Engvall (one of the funniest men alive) starts things off, and as he does best he takes jabs as family life since above all else Bill is a family man. One of the funniest jokes has to do though with his first massage and his reaction to it...great laughs. Ron White is up next, and as he does best he takes jabs at life with booze and loose women, except now that he's a married man the loose women part has been narrowed down to one woman. His set though is still funny especially his take on the movie 'Grizzly Man' although he spoiled the ending! Jeff Foxworthy is on top of his game, although if you ask me he's not as good as his open acts, and quite frankly neither is Larry, although Larry can succeed in getting a laugh out of you for just about anything (his stand up routine in full is histerical!) The great thing about these Blue Collar DVD's is that each of the four men bring something different to the table, their comedy is all unique that it doesn't feel your hearing the same recycled jokes over and over and each has such different delivery everything feels fresh, from Bills almost girlish expressions to Larry's 'Git-er-Done' every line is bound to force a smile. If you own the first two then this is a must have, and even if your new to the phenominon that is Blue Collar TV this is still a very good start!

I laughed so hard watching this. Bill Engvall and Larry the Cable Guy were both equally funny. I didn't like Larry much in the other tours but he either got better or I just didn't appreciate him the first two times I saw him. Jeff Foxworthy came in a close second with his fashion tips. Ron White seemed a bit mean this time around and was the low point in the show. I told my husband he was my favorite of the four in the first two "Blue Collar Tours" and was disappointed this time. Neither one of us liked him much on this tour.

I liked them sitting together showing photos of themselves when they were young. Being their age, I remember how ugly clothes was back then and I had to snicker at how bad we all looked in the 1970s.

I would have given it 5 stars if Ron White was better.

These four guys are so funny - especially when they turn the light on themselves and most Americans. - we just do and say the craziest stuff.

Bill Engvall, Ron White, Larry the Cable Guy, and Jeff Foxworthy return with their all-new, best material for a crowd that is electrified. With their PG-13 humor, they make fun of everyone, especially southern, redneck, America.

Foxworthy delivers a new bit on "Fashion Tips for Rednecks". Engvall describes his first massage, Larry pleads with God "Lord, you know I am only a C student" and Ron White lets loose on dogs, including his own beloved bulldog.

Great fun - lot's of laughs and a terrific audience!

Not as good as the first movie but still funny.

All new material, fast paced and as usual, only people with a good sense of humour will really appreciate the combined talents of these 3 comedians.

These guys are so funny! You'll be laughing out loud, and it'll also pick you up when you're feeling down. I am hoping that they'll do more of these "tours".

There are two ways to look at this installment of the Blue Collar Comedy Tour:

1. If this is the first time you have become acquainted with the gang, this will likely be a 5-star experience. The bits are still funny, and the "old pictures" segment to close out the show is almost worth the price alone.

2. However, if you have already viewed parts one and two in the series, then (for likely the first time) the material will begin to really feel stale. "Rides Again" began the over-exposure, while this one only continues the process. Without that great last segment, the entire show would have really felt musty.

In terms of evaluating each individual comedian:

Bill Engvall: A bright spot; really engaging stories that may be his best performance of the three.

Ron White: A step back from "Rides Again"; loses some of that biting wit/sarcasm that is his hallmark.

Jeff Foxworthy: Spends WAY too much time on one rather uninteresting subject, and routine suffers as a result.

Larry the Cable Guy: Same old, same old here as even big-draw Larry starts to get a bit derivative and sinks into out-and-out crudity a bit too much.

Thus, your opinion of this third (and last) entry into the Blue Collar film series will likely be determined by your previous forays into the series. By and large, the jokes are still funny, but their freshness is what is seriously called into question.

We had the first 2 so getting this one was a no brainer. For the most part we really enjoyed this one but perhaps not as much as the first two shows. I am not sure if too many of the jokes were similar or if perhaps the whole thing was just played out too long. Do not get me wrong as it was funny but just not as great as the first two.

That said my one big grip with this one was it was dirty compared to the others. Especially Ron White who goes a bit too far in my opinion for what we consider a more family oriented show. While the other shows skirt around some sexual topics in a tactful yet respectful way, this one just seemed to bluntly cross the line many times. Some people enjoy that humor and to an extent we do as well but not at the level that was done in this show, again especially from Ron White.

Overall a good purchase and if you enjoyed the first two you will like this one as well but the magic was fading here which may be one reason we have not seen a fourth.

The DVD is FAR MORE funny then the CD. When all of them came out it was unbelievable funny. After watching this DVD I was unable to fall a sleep because I kept thinking thing about parts of this funny parts and kept laughing. If you have the CD you must buy the DVD because you miss so much that you don't see. BIG BELLY laughs with all the guys. DON'T miss the comments these guys make when they show the pictures there wife's sent at the end of the DVD. It's probably the best part of the DVD.

From the first time I saw these guys on Blue Collar Comedy Tour: The Movie, I instantly thought they were funny. Bill & Jeff were their usual hilarious selves, Larry was ok.. his voice sounded a little off but Ron, wow... did he even pack on the pounds! I think all that drinking fattened him up and took away his ability to be funny.

I thought this installment easily was up to the level of the rest of them, and that end bit with the photos was the funniest end bit of all of the shows. Each of the guys' comedy was right on and had me laughing endlessly. In this one, all four routines were well spaced and perfectly long enough to be fully satisfied, plus the material seemed very fresh and new. The finale was also absolutely hilarious in seeing old photos of the guys from years before. Some of them were obviously doctored by a computer, but the guys' reactions to them were great. This was an awesome movie, the Blue Collar boys hitting a home run in their last at-bat. Overall, a must buy!

This DVD is as good as the other 2 they made. Everyone need to see this DVD
