Customer Reviews of Ellen DeGeneres - The Beginning
Terrific concert not done justice by HBO I was in the audience at the Beacon Theater when this was taped. I haven't purchased the DVD yet, but probably will. The evening was wonderful and funny and joyous and everything you'd expect from Ellen. There was also a slight sense that something was a little off. I wondered was it the cameras? The media scrutiny? Now, in hindsight, was it personal? Anyway, from the second I got to the theater, where I started an ovation for her mom, all the way to the question & answer section at the end, the evening was magical. I watched the special on HBO, and somehow in the editing and selection, the concert lost a little of the magic. I understand when other reviews comment on her timing and such. But I truly think that fault lies with the director and the editor. Anyway, the recording is an excellent document, if not a perfect one. This was Ellen's triumphant return, because yes, we really do love and admire her. Now if only she could find material that truly lives up to her remarkable talents.
That show makes your ass look fabulous!
When I first saw "The Beginning," I couldn't stop laughing. Now, after having seen it a few times, I still can't stop laughing. Ellen may not have been completely "on" in terms of her timing, but that didn't make the material any less funny.
The "search for silence" routine was priceless. It's classic Ellen, with the goofy tangents and circuitous timing. Listen carefully on the DVD when Ellen tells her sex toy joke (the "pogo stick"). You'll hear a woman cackling in the background. That woman obviously was busting over with laughter. You'll be busting up, too.
Ellen is halirious!
Not only is she funny, but some of her comedy makes very valid points. Like she she says "Do we still need directions on the back of a shampoo bottle. Who's shampooing for the first time anybody? IAnd if you are you can't read anyway. And there's also a 1-800 number in case the directions are too vague for you. the only thing more pathetic that calling the 1-800 number is working at the 1-800 numer." That is not only very funny, but it also makes a valid point. this is a must buy for any Degeneres fan
