Pretty Good

Don't listen to the negative reviews

Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

Eddie Murphy shot to fame with Saturday Night Live and cemented his status as one of the funniest comedic actors in the 80's with movies such as 48 Hrs. (1982), Trading Places (1983), Beverly Hills Cop (1984), and Coming to America (1988). The 90's however were a mixed bag for Eddie Murphy with numerous flops affecting his star power as well as deciding to head down the family friendly path which is a total shame.What can I say about Delirious? To sum it up, it is damn hilarious. I was in stitches throughout this entire time. You have to see it yourself, especially if you are an Eddie Murphy fan. There are far too many hilarious moments in Delirious which I just cannot describe. Nobody is spared and Eddie Murphy did not pull any punches throughout the entire show. It goes without saying that Delirious is well known for its use of strong language and strong sexual references, as well as Eddie Murphy using a total of 230 f-words.I miss the Eddie Murphy of old which was a million miles funnier back in the day. This is Eddie Murphy which audiences knew and loved in his prime. Foul mouthed, politically incorrect, intelligent, witty comedy at its very best.Highly recommended for all Eddie Murphy fans and anyone who loves foul mouthed, politically incorrect humour.Certainly not recommended for anyone that is easily offended.9/10.

"Delirious" takes its time getting going, and that opening homosexuals bit (doesn't go down well with the modern ear) had me steeling for disappointment. But pretty soon, the laughs come like gangbusters. Murphy does a kickass Elvis impression, and his Stevie Wonder and -especially- James Brown material is solid gold. But he really shines when he goes in on his family, the bathtub, and the backyard cookout. Genuinely funny stuff. Once his natural confidence and swagger take hold (and that's the real star here), the payoff is outstanding.Also, it's pretty flippin' cool to have the Bus Boys open for you.7/10

Rated NR(would be Rated R for Pervasive Strong Language and Crude Sexual Humor). Quebec Rating:16+(should be 13+) Canadian Home Video Rating:18AEddie Murphy Delirious is Eddie's first stand up comedy routine.This came out in 1983.Back then he starred in the movie 48 hrs and Trading Places and he was on Saturday Night Live.Eddie made two stand up comedy films.Delirious and Raw.I preferred Raw because I just found the subject matter to be more humorous.Delirious however is also very funny with Eddie talking about his childhood and making fun of celebrities such as Mr.T and singers such as Michael Jackson.Any fan of stand-up comedy films should see Eddie Murphy's Delirious.

Eddie Murphy truly ruled comedy in the 1980's. He started on stand-up at age of 15 and just take a look at this. Murphy is completely hilarious, packing laughs every minute of this stand-up routine. His humor is what makes him who he is. This is his first stand-up recorded along with Eddie Murphy Raw, they both equally hilarious comedy treasures. The DVD to Delirious has just come out, so go buy now if your a Murphy fan, you will truly love to look back at him in his good old days in comedy. No offense but today Eddie Murphy isn't as Raw and joke cracking. So remember his good days with Delirious and Raw, which are what made him who is truly was in the 80's.
