5.0 out of 5 stars Proof why Martin is the best!, June 17, 2001

This review is from: Martin Lawrence: You So Crazy (DVD)

Any fan of Martin Lawrence will like this DVD. I am a huge Martin fan and had to have this when I saw it.

There are twelve chapters to this DVD and each one of them will give you tons of laughter.

Relatively little is immune from Martin's humor. The subjects range from relationships to childhood to Jeffery Dahmer.

For anyone who remembers his appearance on Saturday Night Live (the one he got in HUGE trouble with NBC and I believe banned from SNL and perhaps the network for) some of the material should be familiar to you.

The front of the DVD packaging uses the words "uncut", "unrated" and "unbelievably funny". All are true.

If you are easily offended by profanity and comedy about sexual situations I would recommend passing up this DVD. However, if neither of those bother you and you love laughing hysterically, "You So Crazy" is definitely something you should add to your DVD collection.

This material is proof why Martin Lawrence is the best! It is just as funny now as it was in 1993 and as it will be in 2013.

3.0 out of 5 stars An Old HBO Special, July 8, 2005

This review is from: Martin Lawrence: You So Crazy (DVD)

I can remember watching the "uncut" rendition on an HBO special years ago and I could not believe (at the time) the opinions and stance Martin Lawrence took on various subjects of the day. You might say I was "shocked" not appalled but shocked that Lawrence chose to incorporate many sensitive subjects into his routine: An incredibly talented comic.

Personally, I feel Chris Rock saw this performance and borrowed aspects of Lawrence's techniques and subjects. So what! They are both great comics when they are original and averse to appealing to the morons by simplifying their routines.

I give this DVD a three star rating because some censoring idiot "cut" many scenes from the original HBO Cable TV special and thereby cut the integrity of the original comedic salvo Lawrence proffered.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must see!, December 19, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Martin Lawrence - You So Crazy [VHS] (VHS Tape)

A very funny video! I would have to say that Mr. Lawrence is by far the funniest "crude" comic out on the scene today. His jokes may not play to the starched collar crowd, but, lets face it, that crowd doesn't get humor anyway. It is raw, brash, and brilliant. A don't miss for those of you who want to be entertained AND shocked.
