Jerry Seinfeld: I'm Telling You for the Last Time
Released 1999
Starring Jerry Seinfeld
Filmed live in New York at Broadway's Broadhurst Theater, I'm Telling You For The Last Time marks an historic occasion in the annals of comedy. Following the finale of his top-rated primetime comedy series, Jerry Seinfeld embarked on an international tour of the classic stand-up material that made his name, and a closing performance where it was performed for the very last time.
It's the last time you'll hear Jerry on old people driving: "What is that age that old people reach when they decide that when they back out of a driveway they're not going to look anymore?"
It's the last time you'll hear Jerry on the perils of buying milk: "Ever have milk the day after...? It scares the hell out of you."
It's the last time you'll hear Jerry on the joys of touring: "I like hotels. I enjoy the tiny soap, I pretend that it's normal soap and my muscles are huge!"
Taxi drivers, airport security, supermarkets, drugstores, doctors, dry cleaners, TV infomercials and more no one is safe, tonight! But after tonight it's over. Because the way Jerry tells it, as far as each and every joke is concerned... "I'm Telling You For The Last Time!"
Summary by www.netflix.com
I liked Jerry as a comedian before his brilliant sitcom, but nine years later that routine is stale. Comedy has moved on, but Jerry hasn't. He rehashes his old stand-up act here, and I suppose it's good to have it documented. Other than that, it's not too exciting. --Bill Alward, August 1, 2001
