Greg Behrendt--famous as the co-author of best-selling self-help book He's Just Not That Into You and a consultant for Sex in the City--has also been a standup comic for over 15 years. Greg Behrendt Is Uncool captures his most recent tour, on which he capitalizes on his unexpected rise to fame by chronicling the physical and psychological indignities of getting older: Hipster cd player repairmen insulting his music; discovering that it is, in fact, possible to sleep wrong; playing Black Sabbath to his daughter in her crib in the forlorn hope of fostering future coolness in her eyes. When Behrendt leans on his self-help success--which, fortunately, he doesn't overdo--it's actually pretty funny. His description of an adult rock show kills, but any comic who spends over five minutes riffing on Pictionary may have a shortage of A-material. Still, there's no question that viewers who feel they're sliding into the whirlpool of irrelevance will identify with Behrendt's humor. The dvd also includes a couple of short films; one interviews assorted folk (like comedian David Cross and ex-Playmate Jenny McCarthy, though the film itself is too cool to identify its interviewees) on the topic of cool, the other is an overextended joke about Behrendt forming a band that doesn't actually play music. --Bret Fetzer

I was a fan of Greg Behrendt TV show and was disappointed when it was removed from the air. I bought this DVD based on my experience from the show, but was disappointed with his comedy. It is sorta vulgar comedy with Greg saying the F... word many times in his dialog. I just don't appreciate this type of comedy and don't find it very funny. Sorry, Greg. I hope he gets a show back on television.

I had tears streaming down my face while watching this. The only reason I gave it four stars instead of five is due to the language. I don't mind swearing, but he's a little over-the-top. Don't let your small children watch, but my teenagers watched with me and loved it. His "adult rock show" idea is brilliant and extremely amusing.

I am normally not a fan of comedy partly because the humor I see doesn't have a lot of substance, but is funny to other people, or I just don't get it. With Behrendt, I was feeling his slapstick performance all throughout from the beginning on this. The only thing different that could've occurred is that he could've lessened his length on repeating a portion of his mockery of drawing through pantomime. Pantomime is pretty much just meant for comedy and not movies most of the time, and this is definitely no exception! He makes fun of all angles of media I can think of, the fans, how media advertises some things, and then pays tribute to the average american worker that usually doesn't get as much credit as they deserve. He plays on take on game night that only any true gamer can understand whether it's D&D or social or other nerdy games like Pictionary or Scrabble. He's about as popular as he wants to be right now. He doesn't have the mainstream yet, which is fine with him. This gives him more time to put out future material, so we can count on it being just as superb! I think this factor will allow him to continue pouring out great material that will be underappreciated. This DVD is a great introduction for me to a piece of monumental Behrendt comedy.
