Title: DRESS TO KILL
Street Release Date: 10/05/2004
Domestic
Genre: COMEDY VIDEO
In Dress to Kill, Eddie Izzard spins free-flowing jokes about San Francisco (where the comedy concert was filmed), transvestitism, squirrels, American optimism, Hitler, the British royal family, mass murder, and Stonehenge--and that's only the first 30 minutes. It's as if this ingenious comedian says whatever comes off the top of his head, but giving that impression demands cunning and skill; Izzard romps through human history and transforms surprisingly complex ideas into biting satire--as well as knockout bits of sublime frivolity, like describing the movie Speed entirely in French. His mercurial patter is sprinkled with four-letter words, but his twinkling glances make this more mischievous than crude. Izzard has delivered some excellent performances in movies (like Velvet Goldmine and The Cat's Meow), but it's on stage that he really explodes with daffy wit and charisma. Simply brilliant and completely addictive; you will want to watch this over and over. --Bret Fetzer

Rating:  - lizzard
This was alittle off the wall, disappointed as I thought it would be fun to watch and have a few laughs.....not so..
Rating: - Hilarious and Brilliant
Dress to Kill is my second favorite Izzard video. I never tire of watching it and have incorporated many of his 'lines' into daily life. Don't let the makeup fool you...he is a very intelligent, talented performer and entertains without resorting to dirty language or insults. I've actually learned alot about history from Eddie. This is probably his most widely known video.
Rating: - Historically Funny!!
We love Eddie! However, the first time I watched this DVD about 4 years ago, I wasn't too impressed. After giving it another go, I caught on to his humor and found him to be very intelligent and incredibly hilarious! I highly recommend this to any open-minded individual looking for a good laugh!
Rating: - Brilliant!
I'm somewhat new to stand-up comedy and this is the first Eddie Izzard DVD I bought (from recommendations which I received from friends) and I was totally blown away. Eddie Izzard is pure genius. He is entertaining and funny, and while some may perceive his jokes as being rude, there's a refreshing feel to his routine. His blunt and frank style and in-your-face humor is brilliant. I laughed endlessly the first time around and did so again when I watched it with my wife. Highly recommended!
Rating: - Eddie at his best!
This is my favourite stand up routine by Eddie, I think it's hilarious and very witty.
