Martin Teller About 10 years ago, I listened to David Cross' album "Shut Up, You F*cking Baby" over and over and over again. Around the same time, I watched this behind-the-scenes documentary and filed it away until now. Revisiting it today, I'm rather disappointed. Cross often comes off like a petty, childish douchebag... most blatantly during the Nashville incident, but there are several other parts where the condescending bitterness that works for him onstage makes him a very unsympathetic person offstage. The dumb hipsters in the audience don't help matters either (and is Cross trying to make fun of these guys? those are his fans, right?). The best stuff here is the material you can hear on the CD.
marty-192 I like David Cross but this documentary does nothing for me and if I was not already a fan would have likely turned me off to watching or listening to him in the future. I would certainly not go to a live performance based on this. Hopefully for David's sake not many people will see it and it will disappear into oblivion without doing too much damage to his career.The photography is poor and the soundtrack weak and often difficult to understand. The people he skewers by showing their stupidity are interesting and sickeningly funny at times but to spend the amount of time he did on the clip of an absolutely abysmal interview was way beyond boring. And that scene is only one of many/most which are quite similar in quality of content.Don't waste your time on this. You will likely feel robbed of the two hours you spent, especially after you have read this review--consider yourself warned.
nolafilm A realistic, unflattering, honest look at David's 2002? tour. Contrary to some other viewer comments, he didn't seem to be making fun of his fans to me, rather, he just let the video speak for itself. If people came across as stupid or obnoxious, it wasn't because of David. The dvd was billed as a behind the scenes look at his tour, and that's exactly what it delivered. I actually felt bad for David, watching him have to deal with the Little Rock audience and a few of the other fans, who just struck me as average everyday, clueless people - with or without David's commentary. I watched it with a budding standup comic friend who was shocked by the often sad reality of stand-up touring, even for a very funny guy like David Cross. If you're a David Cross fan, or curious about what stand-up performers go through on the road, definitely check this out.
calle-2 I'm a big David Cross fan, and not only because of Mr Show, so I was very much looking forward to this DVD which would be a video diary of his adventures on his second stand-up tour. It starts out beautifully with an incident in Nashville, TN, and I figured if it would continue like that, then I'd be in for a real treat. However, the longer the movie moves on, the more it seems like David is a pretty mean character making fun of others in a rather mean elitist type of way. Sure, there are a lot of losers in the movie, and hecklers are put down every time, but I don't like some of the condescending behaviour David shows. All in all it is pretty funny though, so I won't try to stop you from getting this if you're a fan. But if you're expecting a warm and fuzzy kind of guy a la many Mr Show characters, then you won't get what you're looking for.
