Jim Jefferies: I Swear to God (2009)

Simply Perfect

Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

I just love Jim Jefferies. Makes me crack up everytime I watch one of his shows. And this show is exactly what I hoped it to be. I knew what I was going to get and I can't get enough of it. So saying I had a pretty good night in front of the telly isn't a lie. Him being an atheist, like I am also, and making fun about how dumb religious people are is one of my favorite things to watch. And this is done in America of all places, where religious people take their religion very very serious, I couldn't be more pleased. And just before I wrote my review on this show I read the negative reviews on here. I don't need to read the positive ones because they think just like me. But the bad reviews, they were like the icing on the cake. It's like Jim's show is not over yet. I just get a bonus round by reading those God fearing Christians. They are going to pray for our souls, we will go straight to hell etcetera... It's just great to piss those ignorants off. I want Jim Jefferies as president.

Loved it. His humor may not be for everyone, but if you're not in need of having any sticks removed from certain places, I'm sure you will enjoy it. A lot of his humor is quite raw and I would compare it to movies similar to Tropic Thunder. He covers religion, which could upset some folks, as he is not afraid to speak what's on his mind. He's also not afraid to make fun of himself, as he tells a very embarrassing story about what happened to him after purchasing some adult entertainment material.My advice, if you need to have a stick removed....go get that done first, and then watch it.

Be warned, this guy isn't for everyone. In fact, I'd say he's probably more often than not going to offend people than make them laugh.Personally, I find him hilarious. I've seen him live at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and he was pure genius. And it's not just a 'guy' thing, either. My girlfriend thinks he's one of the funniest comedians she's ever seen! This show is typical for his style though he was holding back a little at the start and built up to a great finale :) I wasn't sure what an American audience would make of him, to be honest, but he seems to have broken through the dross that normally surrounds a yank's humour gland. He's certainly very different to the usual 'average' comedian they'd get over there like Chris Rock, for example. I mean, they're quite funny but they just don't let rip like Jim :-D

The famous Australian comedian Jim Jefferies shows himself up on this HBO special and what's the result we get? A comedy that's so funny you will most likely be unable to stop laughing for the whole hour it lasts. And yes, I'll admit. I cried! :DWhether he jokes about religions, sex, porn, sluts or his childhood experiences you just can't stop admiring this man. He holds up no words, has no boundaries and does absolutely anything he wants.What a great comedian - a complete opposite of Will Farrel and his latest pathetic George Bush show.
