Editorial Review from Description:
In this incredibly funny, raw, biting and ultimately smart routine, Carlos Mencia covers taboo topics including ethnic stereotypes, race relations, immigration, war, patriotism, capitalism and family with brutal honesty and unrelenting provocativeness. Mencia represents the internal voice inside us and demands we admit to thinking what he says out loud. Be prepared to laugh, get red in the face, and rewind to make sure he actually said what you think he said. Most of all, get ready to have a great time (if you?re not easily offended) with Carlos Mencia.

    Carlos Menstealia!!!!!!, 2008-06-08
I have never liked Carlos mencia, hes arrogant, racist, and a liar. Hes Honduran and German, and tries to pass himself off as mexican so he can sell more. All his jokes are about race, he literally has nothing else, Oh he also makes fun of fat people, He repeats himself to take up time and hes a joke theif. He steals from unknown comics that cant defend themselves and he gets away with it. Joe Rogan is a great person for going after him and trying to bring him down. If you want to listen to good comics, listen to Daniel Tosh, Greg Giraldo, or Nick Dipaolo, not this hack

    Excellent DVD, kind of, 2008-05-07
Firtly, let me say that I have watched the show on DVD previously and thought it was excellent. Carlos Mencia's "no hold barred" approach to stand up and everyday observations make him one of the most entertaining stand up comedians today. Nothing is off limits, the clue is in the title NOT FOR THE EASILY OFFENDED! And I like this no nonsense "tell it like it is" material. While other comedians are more careful about there material, for fear of offending anybody, Mencia literally doesn't care if anybody gets offended - he tells it like it is and this is what I love about him.

br /I ordered 3 of these dvds, one for me and 2 for friends who asked me to also order them a copy each. Unfortuantely NONE of the 3 dvds worked, even although we all have multi region dvd players and ntsc compatable tvs. When you play the dvd, we just got a black screen. No picture. No sound. Just a black screen after the original FBI warning. This was very frustrating, as I've ordered so many region 1 dvds in the past without any problems. I will be returning the DVDs shortly and I do expect a full refund. Maybe it was just a batch of them which don't play properly and I would be very interested to hear if any other buyers have had this playback problem with their DVDs?

    Nonstop delivery, physical and funny, 2007-09-20
One can not overlook the rumors of plagarism, and I don't know too much about that except that jokes are circulated frequently. Since this is my first look at the comic, I can only focus on the act. Although the show had very funny moments, he is not my favorite, but the audience was having a great time. The connection was here!
br /
br /Offensive? Yes, but one can still laugh heartily at Mencia's show. It is about his presence, the pace, delivery, and content of material. He provides nonstop material with no let-ups; his audience finds him riotious; he commands the stage, and, he pleases his audience with his extremely physical body and facial movements.
br /
br /He admits offense and gives respect to the retarded (those born that way). Mencia's favorite offense is to the stupid people in the world, and it is those he refers to as retarded.
br /
br /The humor is offensive, but not enough to make one cringe and the language is constant F word with various Mexican unfavorable words.
br /
br /Mencia has said his observation is with his frustration with humanity. He covers school, attention deficit, immigrants, race, etc. The accents are done well, convincingly. On this DVD, you will also find Mencia's radio promos and behind the scenes.
br /
br /If you enjoy this humor and can get past the language, you will be delighted to hear see and hear the rants of Mencia. ....MzRizz
