Eddie Murphy - Delirious

Better than the "raw" stand up dvd. It's hilarious

It’s a DVD, arrive well

Absolutely hilarious!

I watched this DVD and noticed something: as I was watching it, I knew 90% of it even though I haven't seen it in at least 15 years. Thats how funny I thought this was/is. I saw every punchline coming and I laughed outloud at every one of them like it was the first time I was hearing it. I was 13yo when this was shown on HBO and I remember people talking about it and imitating parts of it and it still goes on TODAY... I mean, look at the title of the reviews on here. lol. The brand new 34 minute interview didn't go in depth as I thought it would or should but it was still nice to hear Eddie's thoughts on something he did nearly 24 years ago when he was barely out of his teens(and his red leather outfit didn't match? Nobody would've known that if Eddie didn't say it in the interview). I often wondered why it took so long for it to come out on DVD. I wonder if it was because of the politically incorrect tirades on gays and the new(at the time) AIDS epidemic saying things like 'girls kiss a gay guy and go home with aids on their lips', etc... Did Murphy not want it released? Who knows what the reason is because it's out now and we can all laugh at something we watched when we were all(most likely) teenagers watching a new channel called HBO and laughing at how foul mouthed and funny Eddie was. Delirous is way ahead of Raw, his 1987 standup, because Raw seemed to be a bit angry. It's still funny but the two videos are so different in tone that, at least for me, I tend to gravitate towards the more fun of the two. If you grew up watching Delirious than it's pretty obvious you need to buy this as soon as possible. Worth every penny. "Goony Goo Goo, Gus"

Happy to own this

Was funny.

1983! This was the stand up show that got Eddie Murphy in alot of trouble for his jokes on several celebrities, homosexuals, politics, and racial situations, but Eddie was skillful enough to "tell like it was" and at the same time embelishing some of the truth for explosive laughs. A great comedic show is never complete without talking about his childhood and he has it down to a "T!" The drunken father, BBQ Family cookouts, shoe throwing mother, and ice cream man bits were priceless! Some may get offended by the extendeded profanity Eddie uses, but he does'nt force it due to the fact that he had held back long from using the words on NBC's Saturday Night Live (if he wanted to "keep his job"). This was my second copy of Delirious and first professional copy period (my first copy was a DVD burned copy that I got from eBay that stopped working after a year) of which I purchased here on Amazon. Yes, I got the 25th anniversary version with deleted scene and private interview with Eddie about the preparation of the tour. Fire engine red leather suits and S-curls may not make a comeback, but the magic of Eddie's jokes has never left long time fans and fans of comedy overall. I urge fans of comedy to get this and 1987's Raw is as equally as hilarious. While you're at it, please grab a copy of his 1982 comedy album (you will get to hear his hilarious Richard Simmons and Buck Wheat parody of "Enough is Enough").

Great stand up comedy show

eddie Murphy tres drole en stand up pas de sous titrages Français mais en anglais seulement un deuxieme dvd est avec best of snl mais attention pas de sous titres bon visionnage a tous

Area restriction

This is probably the best disk of his.

war damals gut und ist immer noch super!!!! man muss aber schon englisch (schnell) verstehen. oder in zeitlupe mit ton abspielen.

Forget RAW, this is the definitive Murphy performance. I found RAW to be a, still funny but poorly recycled Delirious. I must have seen this 20 odd times and i still laugh all the way through. I have searched for this on DVD for years and finally here it comes. I have a very worn VHS version so am chomping at the bit to finally get this. His interpretations of Elvis, James Brown and Wacko himself are sublime. The Ice Cream gag is worth the entry alone. Very Richard Pryor but very, very funny. Don't hesitate, if you thought RAW was funny, buy this now and I promise you, you won't be disappointed.
