Ellen DeGeneres: Here and Now (2003)
Ellen DeGeneres has done everything, from starring in hit sitcoms and movies, to writing best-selling books, to having her own new talk show, but she's never forgotten her roots as a stand-up comedian. Taped at New York City's Beacon Theatre before a live audience, Ellen DeGeneres: Here and Now features the kind of humor that first made her a star, offering her offbeat insights into everyday life. Her feel-good humor touches on something that anyone can identify with, be it the obligatory gay joke, procrastination, fashion, public cell phone use, airline etiquette, or self-esteem.

Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.
Admirable film.
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.
The film may be flawed, but its message is not.
and hilarious. i enjoyed her commentary - so much of it so true. as funny as her comments were, it is sad to think about how negatively this world is progressed, and maybe in laughing about it, we can realize how ridiculous it has become. Many of Ellen's morals were strikingly Taoist in nature - such as her entire point that you cannot save time, you can merely spend it.. "and that's why procrastination feels so right!" Read "The Tao of Pooh", and you will see the similarities, including her hilarious take on modern news coverage. Also, as a lesbian fan of hers, I found her opening remarks cute. More gay jokes? "What happened to our leader????!":) Peace out.
I swear I have never laughed harder at something so truthfully spoken. Ellen DeGeneres has proved once again that she can speak for alot of people(male and female, gay and straight)on life's tortures and pleasures. The especially funny part is when she speaks about Car Windows. This is a piece of comedy gem that should not go unwatched by anyone who wants to laugh! Truly original. Don't miss it!
This 1 hour special was simply hilarious. Ellen is great! She is definitely one of the best comedians I have seen in a long time. I am looking to buy this on DVD or tape now. The great thing is that you don't have to be a stand-up comedian fan to love this, you just love it! Thanks Ellen for making my gut hurt from laughing =]
This recording of the latest Ellen Degeneres comedy tour was sooooooooooooooooo funny! If you like comedy where you are laughing so hard you can't catch your breath, this is the ticket. Her observations of everyday stuff is so right on and her delivery makes it even more ithilarious. Near the end, she quotes Salt-N-Pepa's Shoop for a "things that make you go hmmmm" moment. The only warning is that women may get more of a kick out of the show then men.
