now and i think eddie izzard be without doubt the best stand up comic performer of recent year and i have have all his live dvd or video and i have see him live on stage and i have even meet the man . i think he be great and very very funny . but yet and when he get in front of a camera for a movie and everything seem to go wrong . he be not funny script and he seem very awkwardly deliver line and he come across very uncomfortable . this film and in my opinion and be awful . it have so much promise and yet the comedy be either badly write ( if write at all ) or the actor just could not deliver it . i manage to watch it all the way through and but i be glad when it finish . i would back eddie to the hilt regard his stand up and but movie wise and i think he need to take a back seat .
