Eddie Murphy, Richard Tienken, Robert D Wachs

Shortly before the end of Eddie Murphy - Delirious the irrepressible Murphy points out the irony of his appearing before an SRO audience at Washington DC's Constitution Hall, the same establishment wh... read more read more...ich refused to allow black opera star Marian Anderson to give a concert in 1939. Murphy may not be in the same style of performance as Anderson, but no one can deny that back in 1983 he galvanized an audience as few other comedians could. Occasionally there's a PG bit involving Eddie's family, but for the most part the humor is raunchy -- as evidenced by Murphy's routine about Ralph Kramden being "serviced" by Ed Norton. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

    Eddie Murphy's Delirious delivers raunchy gag after raunchy gag and it never runs out of steam. They could have thrown in a few behind the scenes clip here and there and then clipped back to the stand up, which I felt would have been more appealing, but it doesn't really matter i... read moren such cases. This movie still soars with laughs, and has Eddie Murphy at his best. Hilarious Show!

    Outstanding stand-up concert. This is balls-to-the-wall hilarious, and I spent most of the running time doubled over with laughter. This makes me wish Eddie Murphy was still funny. I miss the old Eddie and want him to return.

    Side-Splittingly funny. So looking forward to Eddie Murphy's return to stand-up.

    Stay away from any Eddie Murphy movies -- he is a bigot -- he hates Gay people --

    A few laughs, but these days it's more of a nostalgia trip to watch it.

    Probably my favorite Stand-Up of all time! Raw is a close 2nd. He is fresh faced confident but not cocky like in Raw. I have it memorized beginning to end.

    Eddie Murphy fully displays his comic timing and genius in this classic stand up originally airing on HBO. It is raunchy, dirty but oh so funny. The jokes must be dated by now but he is and was truly funny in stand up.

...while the movie does seem to have its fans, there's just no overlooking the general lack of laughs... Full Review

There's a glee and an innocence to the 22-year-old comic cutting loose, recklessly slashing up the world with his razor wit. Delirious is aptly titled, and still shocking after all these years. Full Review

Esta performance absolutamente genial é uma prova inconteste de como o "politicamente correto" destruiu a comédia contemporânea.
