The man who brought you Jay and Silent Bob, Dogma and Jersey Girl is in London trying out his stand up and answer fans questions uncensored. I have never seen any of Kevin Smiths films before, maybe fifteen minutes of "Clerks." I sat down to watch this with no previous knowledge of this man's sense of humor- it didn't do much for me. I just didn't find him as funny as people let on. To me he is another Jack Black with his goofy Tenacious D gig.

They call this DVD ‘smart, edgy and raunchier than ever’. They don't want you to miss your chance to hear his crazy thoughts and brazen comments within this footage from a London show. The theatre is jammed packed with people who giggle at everything he just about says. He jokes some about stars like Ben Affleck, Bruce Willis, Jennifer Lopez, and Will Smith. He had nothing but praise for Will Smith, says he's a great guy and he has nothing but love for him.

Jason Mewes comes out joking about toilet water splashing his balls so he can go and get his dick sucked! They tell tales of their trip flying over to the UK. I don't know I am the type of gal that likes things like Russell Simmons’s Def Comedy Jam or even oldies like Cosby, Murphy or Pryor. I actually found Jason to be a lot funnier than Kevin was.

I know a lot of people out there are probably hating me to death for not all hyped up about this release but I just don't find him to be that funny. I smiled a few times but laughing, it just wasn't happening that often. If I didn't have to review it I think I would have shut it off. I can't give it a super low score because I know there are people out there that love this man to death and laugh their asses off. I just can't seem to get the gist of it- Don't hat me for it!

I am sure many of you could get knee deep in this shit but not me. It sorta dragged along for me. I was even disappointed when Jason left and went back off stage again. Those who worship Kevin Smith will love this DVD to pieces, but PLEASE don't hang me out to dry it's only my opinion and everybody is entitled to one.

All I know is I was excited when Jason came back onstage with his dopey sense of humor, he gave me a few good laughs, so I say three cans for the effort.
