Cebalord Very best movie i ever watch

SeeQuant Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction

Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

Catherina If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

buzzti If you don't know The Colbert Report, it's fair to say: you know nothing. I can forgive ignorance, but obliviousness to the greatest comedy show ever to be seen, I simply won't forgive. Don't even start with any show, comedian or host you think is good or cool or funny. If you have missed out on the brilliance, that is The Colbert Report, you don't even possess the scale to measure what is good or bad. All this late-shows and hosts out there pale in comparison to the borderline insane genius, who made his alter ego a piece of art.The show is an almost perfect mixture of entertainment and education. Stephen Colbert will sensitize you like no one else, for the role of the media and emotion-driven, fear-generating pundits in special, in Americas shift to the right in the last four decades, when democracy was replaced by money, sanity by greed and doing the right thing by doing the thing that gets you rich, because he is a crazy rich, right-wing-crazy TV-pundit. While his ironic portrait of that self-righteous, Bill o'Reillyesk quasi-fascist Stephen Colbert (with a silent t), provides you with lots of arguments to uncover and understand right-wing propaganda, he surprisingly manages at the same moment to give his market-totalitarian character a likable core, a soul if you want. Partly this gives us an idea of the motivations and feelings of the rich and powerful, partly it shows, that every monster is essentially an emotionally crippled human being.What else is there to say? Stephen Colbert sings like no other late-night host, and he is by far, and I really mean that, the best interviewer I have ever seen. A legend. For me, he represents America. His persona stands for the U.S. that is, his person for the country it could be.The show will end November 2014, a few weeks from now. If you have missed it, you have missed the most significant TV-event of the first one and a half decades of this millennium.I will miss you a lot, Stephen!

bob the moo I don't want this review to be a comparison with The Daily Show but, like most others, it is difficult to discuss one without referring to the other. Partially this is because one grew from the other but mostly it is because both are very similar in style, content and approach as well as going after the same target audience. Really it comes down to personal preference because both are good if you do like this type of comedy and share the general political views of the writers. I watch The Daily Show at least half the time and recently got the chance to start watching The Cobert Report when FX picked it up for the UK.Having given both a few weeks I must confess that I'll be sticking with the Daily Show because I think it is the stronger of the two. The writing is as good but not as populist. This is not to suggest that Colbert is somehow smarter or more highbrow but just that it is not as quick fire and based on timing as Daily Show. To quote Jon Stewart, the Daily Show is much more "bam" and quickly delivers everything I want where Colbert's pacing seems slower. I didn't particularly find Colbert as good a host either; he does seem a bit aloof and his comedic timing is not as strong – which is important. He is of course still a very good satirist and a funny man – hence me saying it comes down to personal preference.Mine is The Daily Show but not because I don't like Colbert but because I think everything Colbert does, Stewart's programme does just a little bit better across the board. I imagine that for the majority of the target audience both will hit the spot and it is a matter of personal preference.

Zim Gir Finally someone has the gravitas to show the world how down the gutter our journalism in America is going.The Colbert Report and the original Daily Show both take you on a fun half hour ride through the mad minds of American politics and Journalism.Along the way leaving clever and funny remarks.I've always liked The Colbert Report more than The Daily Show.Reason well I think that is an easy one.Colbert is a lot more controversial sure Stewart has his moments,but Colbert pulls off that he is a Bush loving Republican while at the same time making fun of Bush and Republicans.Now Republicans aren't the only ones who get nailed.Truthiness is dished out to the Democrats as well.Pretty much anyone who makes Fox News or Stephen's favorite to make fun of Fox and Friends than it is likely you will see it comedically on this show.I suggest you give it a watch the next time its on Comedy Central.You wont be disappointed!

truth-lies-in-darkness Stephen Colbert can be summarized in just a few words: brilliant, satirical, and genius are a few that describe him. His views on everything, from the highest levels of government down to something as trivial as milk are things everyone can relate to at some point. With excellent recurring sketches, e.g.- "The Word", "Tip of the Hat, Wag of the Finger", and "Stephen Colbert's Sound Advice" it's no wonder this show has earned such high ratings with Comedy Central viewers and IMDb users. Comedy Central needs less shows and comedians that try to be edgy, such as Carlos Mencia (no offense to all the fans) and get more stuff like this, that IS edgy and funny. The Colbert Report is on several times a day on weekdays throughout the day and with late-night showings as well. Catch it as often as you can!
