After seeing the mixed reviews I decided to give this a miss. Much later, seeing as there was nothing else to watch, I got myself a copy of it and settled down with my wife to watch. I was fully expecting to turn it off after half an hour or so. I was wrong.
This movie is similar to Borat in that it uses a fairly weak plot with a few actors. The rest of the cast are made up of members of the public. Or so we're told. I wasn't convinced that the bikers weren't actors, but I'm splitting hairs. It's clear that some of those involved are not in on the jokes. I expected fairly base humour and at times it is just that. For some reason, it's done so well that the result is hilarious. If you don't laugh at the scene at the Beauty Pageant, you probably never laugh. My wife and I were helpless during that scene.
Ignore the boring folks on here who didn't like it. If you laughed at Borat, you will laugh at this. The function of a comedy is to make you laugh. Even if you laugh once the job was done. If you laugh countless times you have a great comedy. This is such a comedy.

This dude was getting more downloads that most top movies. His sell out tour was a worldwide one. Packing houses everywhere. I'm a huge fan of stand up, so I couldn't wait to see what all the fuss was about.
I'm still not sure. Perhaps he had the right friends. Certainly, he has a dumb audience. They probably can tell you the winners of American Idol and love watching Snookie and Paris Hilton. During the act, I turned to my wife. She was sleeping. She didn't laugh once. I was hungry and as she was sleeping, I had to cook for myself. I can't cook to save my life so I went hungry.
After another hour of waiting to laugh..the show ended. Little Kev cried at how famous he was. It was a touching moment. So touching, that I took out a rusty nail and smashed it into my face. It was either that or a trip to the clock tower.
Do yourself a favour. If you want to laugh at a 'new' comic...watch some Louis CK.
However, if you're really stupid and love being 'cool'...Kev's your man.
