You know him as the hilarious television star from Roc, In Living Color and The Jamie Foxx Show. You know him as a tremendous movie star from Booty Call, The Players Club, Bait, Any Given Sunday and Ali. And when you watch... more » his sold-out performance at the Paramount Theater in Oakland, California, you'll know him as one of the world's funniest comedians. Originally produced for HBO Television, this comedy special leaves no doubt that Jamie Foxx is at the top of his game!« less
"This isn't something to watch with your family, but if you have a strong stomach for explicit sexuality at some parts, then it's impossible not to appreciate Jamie and end up in tears. I personally liked this much more than his other stand-up DVD, "Lost, Stolen, and Leaked." He talks a lot about his career as an actor, but it's not just the words but the physicality of his performance that makes him so hilarious and inimitable. I've tried to use his jokes myself, but his facial expressions and the way he says things are impossible to duplicate. In this way, Jamie definitely emotes much more on stage than, say, Jerry Seinfeld, whom I also like. But "I Might Need Security" is my favorite stand-up show yet."
Oops... I wrote this review for another DVD accidentally!

"But i'm here to correct my mistake. This is the correct review so lets get to it! What can i say about this DVD! Incredible! No matter how many times i see it, same laughs. From start to finish. For many of you who have only seen this on HBO you need to know that alot of this show was cut to fit the time slot. I had recorded it off HBO onto my DVR and i recently seen the DVD and was like "hey this part wasn't on HBO!" Only about 10 minutes deleted. And the etras will have you rolling even more. It is worth buying. You need this DVD in your life!!! But go and get it at a your local BestBuy for $14.99.

"This dvd is extra funny and I laughed all the way through it. He touches on a lot of major celebs and makes fun of them. You should also check out his first comedy special that comes on HBO sometimes. It's called Foxxhole and it will definitely have you laughing so hard that you'll cry."
Laugh out loud funny

"Be warned....this concert has a LOT of vulgarity. If you can get past that, the show is hilarious. Jamie Foxx is a gifted impressionist (Prince, Al Pacino, Mike Tyson, Bill Clinton) and physical comedian (Michael Jackson's declining moonwalking ability, a giraffe loping away from a lion, himself having a conversation with Al Pacino). There are several funny routines, including an encounter with Prince, Foxx's trip to Africa for "Ali," and more. Perhaps the funniest material of all, though, is the stuff not shown on the HBO special. There are two very funny musical encores where Foxx plays piano/organ and sings--and he's surprisingly very good. I enjoyed this far more than I expected to."
Funny! Funny! Funny!

"Jamie Foxx is my new hero of comedy. He's material is great, but, he uses his full energy (body, facial expressions,props) to tell the most hilarious story! I've seen it three times this week. This DVD is definitely a must have!"
