"Is anyone really stupid enough to trust Amazon user reviews when politics are involved? That said, I really enjoyed this concert-Dennis makes some excellent observations that obviously impress the audience at several points, and is as always genuinely intelligent and extremely likeable. He's such a laid-back guy I would find it very difficult to dislike him personally even if I didn't agree with him the way other polemic comedians can be. There's as much liberal philosophy on display here as conservative anyway, so if you're really bothered by this concert you've got some thinking to do to sort out where you stand. If you're truly open minded I don't think you'd be offended at all."

One of the best!

"People who feel compelled to categorize Dennis Miller and then review his work based on his political persuasion ought to shut the f*** up. Please spare the rest of us from having to read through your useless drivel to find an impartial review of this DVD.



I've watched Dennis Miller since his days on SNL. I've watched his HBO specials and seen him perform live as recently as last week. His ability to articulate his thoughts/feelings/observations, combined with his passion for language and his acerbic, dark sense of humour definitely makes him unique at his craft. Some may find his use of ornate metaphor's and obscure references to be somewhat disconcerting though without them he'd be just another comedian.



"All In" features a razor sharp Dennis Miller in top form. He delivers each punch line with the precision and timing that you expect from a comedian as skillful and experienced as he is. As noted by another reviewer, Miller is not afraid to tackle a number of controversial issues and in this day and age where political correctness and hyper sensitivity have shifted into overdrive, it's refreshing to see someone challenge the system and speak his mind. The fact that he can make you laugh hysterically while doing so is gravy!



I'm not sure how anyone who enjoys watching stand up comedians can watch Dennis Miller-All In and rate it one star. Perhaps next time those people might try viewing the DVD without their heads shoved up their a****.

Another Take on Dennis Miller

"You know I've read the two reviews before mine and these two reviewers take more shots at the right and their political beliefs then at Dennis himself. Claiming that the people on the right are generally uneducated. Hey, Kool-aid drinkers, stop thinking all of us are racist rednecks who, when they aren't farming, we're out marrying cousins. And in case your wondering, Kool-aid drinkers is a reference to Jonestown. Obscure enough for you? Because I've got more. They also think Dennis is throwing his hitching his wagon with the right wing. Dennis is the same Dennis he's always been. Take it from someone who watched his CNBC show almost everyday. He doesn't support everything the right does. But when it comes to the war on terrorism, he agrees. And that's when he "panders" to the right, in some eyes. Dennis always speaks his mind, and many times we don't like it. That's what makes Dennis Miller, Dennis Miller. He never sells out. He's not Hollywood. He's not on the left or right. Take it from a guy who has been a fan since Weekend Update and been a fan throughout his career, good times and bad. Leave Miller alone. If you don't like some of his newer material, because it conflicts with your view of him, you are truly sad. I'm sick of left wing "intellectuals" putting down others, all while claiming they are "open-minded". Too often, those who claim to be that way, are often the most closed minded. This is why I love Dennis Miller. Agree with his material or not, Miller always speaks his mind."

Beyond funny.

"I have seen this video several times, I still belly laugh at the jokes and I'll watch it again and I know I'll still laugh! His James Carville assessment alone had me crying not to mention his take on Howard Dean, hilarious! If you're totally hard left, you might not appreciate this DVD but even a moderate lib will get a chuckle.
