YouHeart I gave it a 7.5 out of 10
AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
Lachlan Coulson This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.
gjenevieve The show begins with Reno Collier doing a few jokes. They are fairly good. He then introduces Bill Engvall. Bill Engvall's set was great. He was funny as usual. I have always liked him and he did not disappoint here.Next up was Jeff Foxworthy. He had a lot of great jokes in his routine and I was really enjoying the show up to this point.When he finished, Larry the Cable Guy was up next. He was not very funny and after watching it for about 5 minutes, I fast forwarded to the end of his routine.After his routine ends, Reno Collier comes out and then has Bill Engvall, Jeff Foxworthy and Larry the Cable Guy come out and all four of them sit onstage together and Reno has several questions or requests from the audience that he asks the various comedians and he even contributes as well. This part was great. Even Larry the Cable Guy was funny during this part of the show.I recommend watching this (but if you, like me, find that Larry the Cable Guy's solo routine is not that funny, just fast forward past him and then finish watching).
ApprehensiveSpaghetti (To preface this, I rate entries on IMDb according to a binary system - 10 means I liked it, 1 means I didn't. Thumb up, or thumb down. I don't feel the need to mess with the numbers in-between.) After the excellent One for the Road, Ron White left Blue Collar Comedy since he felt a bit suffocated by the cleaner requirements of the format. Several years later, the three guys who were left decided that while he's still a friend, not having him around ain't such a bad thing, and here we are with Them Idiots: Whirled Tour.After a weak opener from Reno Collier, Bill Engvall gives a rather underwhelming set that Jeff Foxworthy more than makes up for. Larry the Cable Guy, known for his humor being bluer than that of the other two, finishes it off on about the same level as Jeff. It's a bit sad that Bill doesn't do as well as he could here since he is an enormously funny man who just two years prior to this performance released the superb Aged and Confused.Jeff in particular proves there are STILL elements of the redneck lifestyle he still has not elaborated upon in his signature way, since he has written page-a-day redneck joke calendars for over 20 years and STILL had material left over for his act in this film. He also describes having just turned 50 and being required to prepare for a colonoscopy, a tired stand-up comedy trope that he reinvigorates in an unexpected way you have to hear to believe. His was easily the best set, and I was rather worried that the film overall would not quite be what it could.Them Idiots: Whirled Tour is quite funny overall and I would love it if Them Idiots got back together to do another round.One last thing - a technical quibble: I'm not sure if it's the DVD's fault or that of the film itself, but when I popped this movie in, some of the intro suffered from slight synchronization issues. By no means does this affect the show itself, but it did make me think there was something wrong with my equipment.
