Hilarious - Rating: 5/5
It's George Lopez, it's funny, if you like George, you will like this DVD. He touches on a lot of honest issues and tells it how it is. If you find this DVD offensive, it has done it's job :) Highly recommend, 100x better than the TV show, stand up in it's RAW, uncut, glorious form. If you want something rated PG, stand up is not for you!
VERY FUNNY!!! - Rating: 5/5
This is VERY FUNNY. if you like Why You Cryin than you will enjoy this. All of the things he says bring back memories from my childhood.
Solid entry in ethnic standup - Rating: 3/5
Like Carlos Mencia, Mr. Lopez mines ethnic stereotypes not just of Mexicans (Mariachi music, illegal immigration, drinking, crime) but also of mostly-hypothetical WASPs (BlackBerries, Bluetooths, feng shui, Starbucks). There's plenty of jokes about how Mexicans do all the dirty work Americans supposedly won't do ("Do you know who's rebuilding New Orleans? FEMA - Find Every Mexican Available").
But Mr. Lopez actually shows pretty good range -- it's not just jokes based on ethnic stereotypes, but also matters as diverse as hirsute grooming, family problems and growing up poor. He's actually funniest when he talks about the differences between his childhood and children growing up today: "Do you know what our `Lunchables' was? Two weenies on a fork, over a stove!" Overall, he has a few laugh out loud moments and is worth the time to watch, if not to purchase.
We LOVE George Lopez, but beware.... - Rating: 4/5
There is A LOT of profanity in this DVD. If any of you are buying this based on loving the TV series, you just need to be aware that it is not as family friendly as some of George's other material and certainly not as appropriate for younger ears as the TV show. However, as always, George is hilarious and if you are a fan, you will love this too!
very vulgar and offensive - Rating: 1/5
I wonder why this is not rated when it should be rated R. He hardly says one sentence without a four letter word. Why comedians think that makes their material funny is beyond me. I never would have bought it had I known the language he would use all the way through. If I wanted to hear language like that I would go to the ghetto or a bar.
I wasted my money as I cannot even share it with my family.
