Frankie Boyle Live (DVD) Reviews

Frankie Boyle is now my least favourite comedian. Largely due to the vulgar, crude and downright offensive material displayed in this DVD. I had seen him on some tv shows and thought that he was very quick and witty and I found him very funny. However, when watching his DVD I felt that his humour had gone to such a level of vulgarity to ...  Read the complete review

After watching Mock The Week, I loved Frankie Boyles sense of humour as his one liners or jokes were always so funny, however crude they may be. When on this panel show, he always came off as one of the funniest, and this was what made him into a series regular. I'd never seen any of his stand up as I'd missed the episode of Live At The ...  Read the complete review

Frankie Boyle is a stand up comedian, and in 2008 he released a DVD titled Frankie Boyle Live. This DVD is rated an 18 due to bad language and sexual humor, and you can buy it on Amazon for £7 at the moment, which is a bargain for a great DVD such as this one. I had not really heard much of Frankie Boyle, except for the ...  Read the complete review

After finding Frankie Boyle hilariously funny on panellist programmes such as Mock The Week and 8 out of 10 cats, I thought his stand up DVD Frankie Boyle Live would be right up my street. I was wrong, quite simply. I found his usual level of shock humour displayed on comedy panellist programmes was taken to a whole other, sinister level ...  Read the complete review

Mock The Week is one of my favourite shows, but unfortunately, it never has a very long run so I like to fill the time between with the stand up DVDs of the panelists. Frankie Boyle is absolutely one of my faves, he is totally sick in the head but he always has the best one liners and gags. So I was gutted after watching his ...  Read the complete review

Some things in life are better in small doses and this is certainly true of Frankie Boyle if this Live DVD is anything to go by. Don't get me wrong, my previous experiences of his razor sharp wit on such televisual delights as 8 Out Of 10 Cats & Mock The Week had made me laugh to such an extent that I believed I saw a bright light ...  Read the complete review

Being a huge fan of Frankie Boyle on Mock the Week and when he appears on shows such as 8 out of 10 Cats, I thought his DVD was worth a watch and asked for it for Christmas. On Mock the Week Frankie always comes across as the funniest, although the most crude. His jokes are funny and to the point, but almost always offensive to someone. ...  Read the complete review

Frankie Boyle is possibly best known for his controversial and quick witted lines in mock the week. I hoped this DVD would show off his best material, as well as some more unseen jokes, but i was disappointed, around half the material i had seen previously. Sometimes throughout the DVD, after a joke has not gone down ...  Read the complete review

Frankie Boyle is my favourite comedian of the moment; I saw this stand-up DVD without having seen Mock the Week or having ever heard of or seen Boyle, so his cutting, insane jokes that have NO IDEA where the line is, were pleasantly surprising, and I must confess that this is probably my favourite stand-up DVD ever. I've read ...  Read the complete review

After seeing comedian Frankie Boyle as one of the panellists on Mock The Week and more recently on Charlie Brooker's new programme You Have Been Watching, I thought I would check out his stand-up DVD simply titled, Frankie Boyle Live. Boyle is a Scottish comedian probably best known for his dark sense of humour and grumpy ...  Read the complete review

I have to disagree with most of the reviews on here about this DVD. I thought it was great fun. I have always found Frankie funny on Mock the Week so I was happy to receive this as a gift. Some of his jokes can be a bit hit and miss but generally it is very funny. I would say that it is not one for the faint hearted because ...  Read the complete review

Frankie Boyle is a Scottish stand-up comedian who is probably most famous as a panellist on Mock the Week. Frankie Boyle Live is his first and only DVD to date. Filmed at London's Hackney Empire the show runs to slightly over an hour but there are a few extras(more about them later.) Boyle's style of observational comedy ...  Read the complete review

As most of the people that have already reviewed Frankie Boyle, I was and in deed some way still am a huge fan of Frankie Boyle. I have grown to admire his quipping replies, and off the cuff comments on 'Mock the Week,' that brutally attack minorities, and majorities alike. On the programme, Frankie abruptly interrupts whoever is about ...  Read the complete review

This is Frankie Boyle one of the stars on BBC's Mock the Week doing his offensive and funny stand-up show at the Hackney Empire. The show is a basically Mr Boyle standing there for a long time going through every insult he can and being as offensive as he can be, he starts by the traditional comics route of picking people from ...  Read the complete review

It doesn't matter if some is recycled, this is the best stuff out there! Now, before i had even realised that he was doing a stand up, i was already a massive fan of Mr Frankie Boyle. He had made Mock The Week his old with his hilarious sense of humour which was frequently sick and crass, but oh so desirable! He was ...  Read the complete review

I bought this DVD because I think he is fantastic in Mock The Week, so funny and original and makes me laugh constantly. It would make sense that the DVD would be just as funny and to be honest it would have been if at least every second joke wasn't recycled from Mock The Week. To say I was disappointed was an understatement, and to make ...  Read the complete review

Before I watched this DVD I was a big fan of Frankie Boyle and thought he was easily the funniest on Mock The Week. I wondered how on earth could he come up with such funny gags so quickly? After watching this DVD I now know his secret. He just recycles his material. This DVD was so disappointing as I'd heard most of his jokes ...  Read the complete review

I am a big fan of Frankie Boyle on Mock the Week and was thinking of going to see his live stand up show. Having seen this DVD, I'm kind of glad I didn't. His routine is like a compilation of all the material he has used on Mock the Week thrown together with little thought. It's the same one liners and 'shocking' comedy which is starting ...  Read the complete review
