Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film

Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!

Kailansorac Clever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.

TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

classicsoncall Coming to you from Washington, D.C., this is Jeff Dunham's second comedy special and the guy is simply a blast. No pun intended there considering Achmed the Dead Terrorist pretty much takes the term literally. Achmed is joined by Dunham's regular stable of suitcase pals - old curmudgeon Walter, Melvin the Super Hero, Peanuts and Jose, Jalapeno on a Stick. It's quite difficult to catch Dunham move his lips while voicing the characters, every once in a while you'll notice, but otherwise he's got the ventriloquism gig down perfectly. Notice the fan reaction to Dunham's routine, you have people in the audience who double over from the snarky comments of his characters and his precise comic timing. As an aside, did you ever see a picture of Walter and former Vice-President Joe Biden side by side? The resemblance is uncanny.

valzer The public celebrates his jokes with extremely patriotism. Jeff knows where is the money and he gives to his public exactly what they want. And that is the feeling that American people are superior. All his characters make, more or less, some racist joke. It cant turns very irritant the loudly "HUUUUU!!!" and idiots claps approving the racist comments. Melvin the superhero is lovely, maybe because it's the most innocent character of the show. And make jokes without "american-inside-sense" is very difficult. That's the spirit of the show, and Melvin has it. Too bad that the others needs permanently support of racist jokes. Jeff is funny. And very talent. You can't see less of two persons on stage.

ctomvelu1 Dunham has to be one of the funniest comedians working today, and note I didn't specify just as a ventriloquist. Having said that, I have to pause for a moment to reflect on something: Achmed the Dead Terrorist is hysterical, and it's probably better to laugh at your enemy than fear him, but I think Dunham pushes the envelope a little too far with this character. Ditto Jose Jalapeno. I am amazed Mexicans haven't risen up in revolt, except they have no voice yet in America. Jose reminds me of Bill Dana's Jose Jimenez character or for that matter, the Taco Bell dog. Or even Speedy Gonzalez and his siesta-loving buddies. So maybe Dnham is the equivalent of Triumph the Insult Comic Dog or Lisa Lampanelli, both of whom also push the envelope to the point of discomfort -- even while they have me bending over in spasms of laughter. But it's easy for me, a white, English-speaking, Christian male, to laugh at what in truth is thinly veiled racial humor. Imagine Achmed as a Jewish moneylender or Jose as an Italian organ grinder. Not so funny now, huh? Characters like Walter and Bubba, on th other hand, are right out of the Edgar Bergen and Charlie McCarthy days, although I don't think I ever heard Bergen's puppets get that rude. Peanut is another matter entirely. One way or the other, I believe Dunham is a truly gifted performer even if his humor does get pretty vexsome. The guy is pulling in $30 million a year, so he must be doing something right. Someone here has suggested characters like Achmed and Jose Jalapeno are simply playing on American ignorance, which is exactly what Borat does. But I'm not so sure this is true in Dunham's case.

Flyer78 I am a big fan of guys like Ralphie May, Gabriel Iglesias, Larry the Cable Guy, Ron White, etc, but Jeff Dunham absolutely is the most talented standup comic out there. It's simply amazing how the guy manages to give inanimate objects such diverse and strong personalities. It almost feels like if you saw one of them thrown out beside the highway some where you would yell- "Hey, there's Walter!" or "Oh my God, it's Achmed!" The thing that separates Dunham from any other comic out there is because most standup comics each have unique routines, but they mostly rely on a single catchphrase- like Blue Collar's "HERE'S YOUR SIGN!" But Jeff Dunham each gives the puppets a unique personality, and each and every one of them are hilarious in their own way. He even sticks out among other ventriloquists, as well as other standup comics.I could say much, much more, but I will condense everything by saying simply Jeff Dunham is a genius!!!
