Customer Reviews of Bill Cosby, Himself
Bill Cosby Runs The Gamut On His Family Bill Cosby delivers perhaps his funniest standup routine ever in this 1981 concert film.
After a surprisingly tacky take on drugs - saved by his sensational satire of an addict who goes to a fastfood restaurant - Bill does dead-on takes on getting drunk and going to see the dentist. He then launches into the film's running gag - family life. From a natural childbirth sketch that outdoes every such episode of any comedy series, Bill goes to the art of actually rasing children, and details the innocently vicious antics involved - such as scolding the son when he shaves his hair, dealing with a bratty four-year-old on a transcontinental flight, and how every night the wife turns into Xena The Warrior Princess when the kids turn bathtime into war.
But perhaps the funniest part comes when Bill reveals the "real" names of himself and his brother Russell (best known from the Fat Albert cartoon show based on Cosby's sketches) when they were kids. There is also the surprising concern of mothers when their sons are in automobile accidents.
Chances are you'll be unable to stop laughing at this stellar concert tape.
EXTREMELY FUNNY! COSBY IS THE GREATEST!
I first saw this movie on HBO and had to get it. Bill Cosby turns everyday experiences and concepts of marriage and children into a barrel of laughs.
Example: "I came home from playing tennis one day, and my wife was sitting at the end of the table, like this (makes a mean, frusterated face) I said uh-oh, and I was concerned for myself. So I said, how are you feeling, pud? She said 'I want you to go upstairs and KILL THAT BOY! Right. I was happy because I wasn't the one in trouble! Kill the boy! Kill the boy! Yes, master. Yes."
Bill Cosby talks about brain-damaged children, people getting drunk (and saying that they're having a good time), people getting stoned, and a hilarious encounter with the dentist, and his bottom lip.
This is a great comedy masterpiece. I would recommend it to anyone!
Unintentionally Funny
While the main goal is making the viewer laugh, some parts are eerily funny and cryptic. The film starts out with an hilariously bad song called "It Was A Good Idea At The Time" then the comedy gets underway. At one point Bill jokes on his now-dead son, Ennis. Ennis was being naughty so Bill jokes that Camille wants Bill to "kill the boy...hehehe, kill the boy." Then Bill adds, "...so I go upstairs to kill my son." Morbid, given what would occur nearly 20 years later.
