Product Details

Synopsis: After starring in the Broadway smash Hairspray, John Pinette (The Punisher, Revenge of the Nerds) returns in the hottest show at the Montreal Comedy Festival. Named "Stand-Up Comedian of the Year" by the American Comedy Awards, Pinette gained wide attention for his role as Howie the car-jacking victim in the Seinfeld finale and is a favorite guest on The Tonight Show. With all-new material on everything from health food ("Salad's not food. Salad comes with food.") to family parties ("If you see a skinny person at the Pinette Family reunion, you say, 'And you are married to who?'"), Pinette has one of the most original voices in comedy today.

John Pinette is one of those comics that gets a laugh without profanity - and I mean laughs that bring teears! His facial expressions and use of his voice are truly priceless. I highly urge you to buy this if you want a few hours of GREAT entertainment!

4.0 out of 5 stars More (of the Same) by the Funniest Man on Earth, January 22, 2007

Don't get me wrong, I think John Pinette is the Funniest Man on Earth. I saw the edited version of this DVD last night on Comedy Central. John is repeating too much material from his prior DVD and CD. Great stuff, very funny, but I say NAY NAY---you've done it before, John! You need more new material. I'm buying this anyway, but please retire "Free Willy" and "Fat Man at the Water Park"!

1.0 out of 5 stars John Pinette / "I'm Starvin" - Disappointing!, February 22, 2007

By

Corrd - See all my reviews

This review is from: John Pinette: I'm Starvin'! (DVD)

If you bought John Pinette's "I Say Nay,Nay, you viewed most of the same
show. If a show has a different name, "I'm Starvin", it should have different material!
I was very dissapointed!

2.0 out of 5 stars Humorous yet boring
One of those comedians who is humorous, but not funny. If you grew up Amish and have never seen standup before, this is the funniest thing ever, but otherwise it's really not.
