    A true story of one man's journey of lunacy and hilarity

    This is one of the funniest DVD's out there from one of the most interesting comedian's in Britain today.

    What is so refreshing about Dave Gorman is that he doesn't actually make up jokes to make the audience laugh, come to think of it he doesn't really tell many jokes, he just tells the audience what happened on his adventure around the world meeting other 'googlewhacks', people who may be (unknowingly) part of a huge internet game. The story is so ludicrous it can't be made up, everything here is true and that's why is it that funny. To think it all started out by him getting a random Email and then getting very drunk (don't all the best stories start that way?) If you have ever seen any of his TV shows, or read any of his books you know exactly what to expect, if you haven't then rent this and allow him to talk about his travels for two hours, you won't regret it!

    The Best Most In Depth Comical Act Ever

    This is the greatest most in depth and emotional comical act ever. This stand up act is so funny and intense. A laugh riot at the way through, there's even points where emotions reach a height of danger but it all makes sense at the end, u may like the end and u may not but it sure is intense. Oh my god please please please please please watch this is u like comedy and please please please please please watch it even if u don't. It's not only a comical act but also real life, these are real events that happened in David Gorman's life that he retells by using a variety of slides. This act is a journey brought to u by David Gorman and a journey that u will not forget.

    Incredible

    I had no idea what to expect going into this and I was blown away. Gordon is a born performer and did an excellent job, I have been given instructions not to say anything about the nature of the film so i will just prattle on about nonsensical things for 10 lines. It was really good though and you should definitely watch it. Here is a little story, once upon a time there was a pig and a walrus, the pig and the walrus were the best of friends, but one day the pig went to the walrus's house and he wasn't there, so the pig stole his TV and ate his food. Then the walrus came back and ate the pig. Well thats just about 10 lines, again go and rent this, go into it blind thats the best way to do it.

    Innovative, Intelligent and in a league of his own. NO SPOILER

    After watching the majority of his first 'Im Dave Gorman' Experiment i was intrigued to find out what Googlewhacking was all about. And the end result i was presented with was sheer genius working on stage. Although it is hard to comment on the content without giving away too much, Dave Gorman's Googlewhack Adventure takes you on a journey like no other. It all started with an email from a fan referring to his website as having a Googlewhack on it. What is a Googlewhack i hear you cry? A Googlewhack happens when you type any two words (from a dictionary or Google's own online dictionary)press search, and only get ONE result returned. Harder than you'd Expect. When Dave attempts this he finds himself taking an unexpected trip spanning a fair few miles around the world. A fantastic bit of viewing even for those unfamiliar with his work. You'll laugh, you'll cry you'll even cringe at his independent struggle to pursue this random endeavor. Random but Revolutionary. This truly is tale of epic proportions

    Disappointing

    Inevitable Googlewhack Adventure was going to be compared to " My name is Dave Gorman" . The brilliant first series from the man with the same name. Googlewhack adventure attempts to do the same kind of thing only with different rules but sadly end up looking like a show that is far too implausible. Lots of power point displays and photo's but no real people.

    Dave Gorman is a very intelligent man , obviously , and he has somehow made himself a cult figure among a lot of people. In this show he seems a lot more highly strung. He's gets angry , which is fine , but it just seems too false. I wont give the ending away but i will say you see it coming a mile away but all in all i pretty disappointed.
