Jim Jefferies: I Swear to God

Be warned, this guy isn't for everyone. In fact, I'd say he's probably more often than not going to offend people than make them laugh.

Personally, I find him hilarious. I've seen him live at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and he was pure genius. And it's not just a 'guy' thing, either. My girlfriend thinks he's one of the funniest comedians she's ever seen!

This show is typical for his style though he was holding back a little at the start and built up to a great finale :) I wasn't sure what an American audience would make of him, to be honest, but he seems to have broken through the dross that normally surrounds a yank's humour gland. He's certainly very different to the usual 'average' comedian they'd get over there like Chris Rock, for example. I mean, they're quite funny but they just don't let rip like Jim :-D

Loved it. His humor may not be for everyone, but if you're not in need of having any sticks removed from certain places, I'm sure you will enjoy it. A lot of his humor is quite raw and I would compare it to movies similar to Tropic Thunder. He covers religion, which could upset some folks, as he is not afraid to speak what's on his mind. He's also not afraid to make fun of himself, as he tells a very embarrassing story about what happened to him after purchasing some adult entertainment material.

My advice, if you need to have a stick removed....go get that done first, and then watch it.

I absolutely loved this. Jim Jefferies could be reading my mind, because I to am Australian and an atheist, and Jim pulls no punches. If you are an atheist, or if you're a Christian but don't take it literally, you can probably watch it and enjoy it. He does also pick on other religions, but Christianity wears the brunt of it.

However the religious humour dominates the first half. The second half works into a large story involving a specific sex act that I can't talk about on IMDb, but lets just say keep the kiddies elsewhere.

I should also add that, being an Australia, Jim swears like an Australian. So if you don't like swearing I'd steer clear.

As for the specific humour, the humour is "working class" and brutal, raw, in your face humour. As in, sexual abuse, physical abuse, child abuse, and so on become part of the jokes.

Defiantly not for everyone. The jokes will potentially offend and the subject matter is taboo, but if you can get past it, it's incredibly funny.

I just love Jim Jefferies. Makes me crack up everytime I watch one of his shows. And this show is exactly what I hoped it to be. I knew what I was going to get and I can't get enough of it. So saying I had a pretty good night in front of the telly isn't a lie. Him being an atheist, like I am also, and making fun about how dumb religious people are is one of my favorite things to watch. And this is done in America of all places, where religious people take their religion very very serious, I couldn't be more pleased. And just before I wrote my review on this show I read the negative reviews on here. I don't need to read the positive ones because they think just like me. But the bad reviews, they were like the icing on the cake. It's like Jim's show is not over yet. I just get a bonus round by reading those God fearing Christians. They are going to pray for our souls, we will go straight to hell etcetera... It's just great to piss those ignorants off. I want Jim Jefferies as president.

Brilliant, laugh out loud funny,love his story telling
