Gabriel Iglesias: I'm Sorry for What I Said When I Was Hungry

I know this guy, I have seen him before on a standup show about upcoming comedians I think. He was funny, he was in front of a small audiance.

Now I see a very large crowd and I see a man who only talks about himself, how famous he his, how many shows he has etc. And he repeats it a lot of times. In every joke there is something where you here him saying he is famous or rich etc. Ofcourse you can mention it but he does it every time. And he is also laughing a lot about his own jokes. I saw some nice things but mostly it is not funny or original. It is boring and I am wondering how you can be so famous by just talking about senseless things. I think most people were not laughing in the audiance, well maybe fake laughing.

Interestingly, this brand new Gabriel Iglesias special is better than Iglesias' last film, the direct to theaters film "The Fluffy Movie". Fortunately, he's back to his older style--with lots of wonderful accents, impressions, sound effects and the like. Among the man topics he covers in this new stand-up film are reports of his death, what it's like to have an 18 year-old son, the lady who collapsed during his routine and needed paramedics, the Brits, automated bathrooms and he saved the best for last--Racist Gift Baskets part two. It's all very enjoyable and PG-13 (apart from a few cuss words it's pretty much family-friendly). So, if you need a laugh and like a good storyteller, try this one out...it just debuted on Netflix this week and I'm glad I saw it.

I don't know why i even bothered to watch this, but this was just waste of time. No trolls are needed to give bad review when material is this week and is this unfunny. The gun law bit was OK, but Jim Jefferies already it and way better. I really cannot understand how he can be having any kind of career.

but this special is by far the least funny thing he has ever done. .There's one about auto-erotic asphyxiation that was really good(even though I saw the punch line coming a mile away) and a couple times he mentions all the horrible things happening in the world, like that it's raining in the forests. Those were the only times he was really funny in this special. The most disappointing part is that he reused a few old jokes

I've been watching a lot of stand-up comedies lately, discovered some new faces that I really liked and that I will follow from now on, but I don't think I will do the same with Gabriel Iglesias. It was my first show from him and I'm really not impressed. Maybe I'll give one other show a go just to compare as I read in another review that this was his least funny show so far, so i'll give him the benefit of the doubt, maybe he just had a bad day. First of all his show was too long, certainly because his jokes aren't that good, it's all much too clean and polished. At one point he told about a fan that fainted from laughing so hard, and the only thing I could think of was that it must not have been from this show because I can't see me fainting from this mediocre comic routine, maybe fall asleep, that would be more likely. When I see really funny comedians perform in a small night club and then I compare Fluffy in front of such a big audience I think it should be the other way around. I'll just watch one more show from him in the hope it gets really better.
