DVD Reviews of Gilbert Gottfried: Dirty Jokes
DVD Review: Gilbert IS the Comedian's Comedian
Summary: 3 Stars
Gilbert Gottfried has a reputation for being a "comedian's comedian" -- he is that and more. He's at his best when he's unscripted (or appears so) and the "extra" material on the DVD does very well by him.
Unfortunately, this DVD is probably not the best choice for an introduction.
If you are familiar with his work (and you like it), then you'll enjoy the DVD. In the main feature of the DVD he is telling old, non-original dirty jokes before a packed house at Caroline's. It's a small (but venerable) stage and magnifies the idiosyncracries of a performer so be prepared. After getting over the initial shock of seeing him in makeup and hair colour, it was nice to see him in his element -- and his impressions of Bill Cosby, Alan King, and Jerry Seinfeld make me smile and take my mind off the punchlines I already know. As I watched the main DVD feature I really wanted him to ditch the material and go off on one of his extemporaneous sidebars (and he almost does a few times) -- that is why I like him so much and why he's known as a comedian's comedian.
For me, the price of the DVD was met with the extra material. This is where we get a glimpse of the true Gilbert Gottfried. Anyone who sees comedy on the Internet has probably seen his legendary appearance at the Hugh Hefner roast. It's a hysterical bit and shows Gilbert at his best. On the DVD extra material, we find a selection that leads us to believe we're going to see that bit, but instead we're treated to a lengthy (and funny) explanation as to why we will NOT see it. Don't be disappointed, you can poke around on the Internet and see it for free anyway.
By the way, when you see Gilbert staring at you on the DVD, does anyone else notice a disturbing resemblance to Humphrey Bogart?
