| eFilmCritic.comRob GonsalvesFisher wasn't angling for pity. She wanted to hear laughs. So much of her writing earns laughs, but they sound hollow now that she's not here to hear them. |

| User ReviewMolly RIn this one woman show, Carrie Fisher tells the story of hey unusual life and her extended family in brutal hilarious honesty. She holds you captivated for the entire time and has you laughing through it. The DVD has an interview with her mother, Debbie Reynolds, and it is not to be missed either. It shows how much affection they share. |
| User ReviewJake HOh Carrie, your beautiful soul will forever be missed |
| User ReviewJohn YI had no idea that Carrie Fisher was this funny. You will laugh until your gasping for air. |
| User ReviewJaimme RJust happened to stumble on her show on HBO... funny |
| User ReviewScott EI love her candor and sense of humour. Very funny and honest, without being tragic. |
| User ReviewEdwin CI really loved this. I had gone to see "Postcards from the Edge" in 1990. I enjoyed that film. However, I was really surprised at how much I enjoyed Carrie's transparency in this entertaining monologue about her life and the crazy experiences she went through. It is so refreshing to see a Hollywood icon who respresents herself as a real human being. She is able to laugh at herself and at the events that made her into who she is. She rocks. |
| User ReviewPatrick FWhile this certainly contained elements of autobiographical one-man-shows that I don't like (the "pretending you can't remember" schtick, the "spontaneous joke but it obviously isn't" business, that kind of thing), but I found this engaging, funny, and very entertaining. It may have been a little pander-y at times, but in general, I liked it a good bit. |
