Billy Crystal is personable and lots of fun. We laughed out loud often throughout the show. Bonnie Hunt is as down to earth as they come. Would love to see her more on tv or in the movies. Such a delight!

Absolutely fabulous! It was like a walk down memory lane. I was in absolute awe of all his impressions. Could have sat there for another two hours listening to Billy Crystal. I only knew him from When Harry Met Sally and City Slickers. Knew very little about his earlier career and it was amazing to see how he got into the business. I really enjoyed the fact that he could be funny without cussing. I would be the first person in line to buy tickets if/when he returns. LOVED IT!

it spanned Billy's entire career. If you like Billy Crystal you will love this show. Even if you are not the biggest fan, you will still have a great time. It was long though 3+ hours, was not expecting that.

Billy Crystal was awesome. He was on stage for ever (long time) before he took a break. Loved his stage set up & having Bonnie Hunt with him.

Great show that was almost 2 1/2 hours. Billy Crystal told the backstory about many of his characters and how he got to where he is today. If you are a fan this is amuse see. But pee before the show starts.

He really has had a great career, and much of that was revisited in the form of film clips and reminiscences. He did start out with some actual standup, which was funny and tuned to his core audience, which included a lot of greybeards (myself included). It probably could've been a half an hour shorter but, other than that, was an enjoyable evening. I'd recommend it to a friend, if that friend was over 40.

It was great seeing a comedy legend in person. He is a natural, and is such a warm, personable and funny comic. Everyone in the audience was laughing and smiling. The only thing that kept me from giving 5 stars is because the sound was terrible, and it was hard to hear his conversations with Bonnie Hunt. When they were talking to each other the stage should have been lit up more, and a photo of Bonnie Hunt should have appeared on the screen sometime during the performance.

This Late Night Show Interview styled event was an entertaining walk through the life and career of the great Billy Crystal. Guided by hostess/comedian Bonnie Hunt, Billy Crystal gives a first person narrative of the highlights of his career and the most important people he has worked with, As entertaining as it was, the laughs were minimize by the interview format. Billy Crystal shines brightest as a stand up comedian when he is not confined to any type of program structure. I laughed a lot as it was, but I would have died laughing if this were a Billy Crystal stand up performance.

Not worth $200. It was a sit-down interview of Billy Crystal's career with Bonnie Hunt. Not stand up comedy. Almost left early, many people did. Save your money don't

I didn't realize I was going to a democratic party fundraiser. We went to see a comedian and got his political agenda shoved down our throats. They also couldn't stop talking about how amazing they are. We left before the end as they were making a joke about Reagan's funeral. Just horrible.

Too much Billy Crystal and definitely NOT ENOUGH David Steinberg -- and whenever David tried to say something, Billy interrupted and continued talking! And his egocentricity was overwhelming -- it infused everything funny that he tried to say. It's hard to top the accomplishments of comedians like Milton Berle but Billy certainly tried! The end of the show was a welcome relief.

From the very beginning to the end, Billy Crystal and David Steinberg captivted us with non-stop stories and humor in a manner that was relaxed, honest, heartwarming, but most of all hilarious. The conversation was like a comedic history lesson from Groucho, Milton Berle to Johnny Carson and Robin Williams. We all left wanting to see more and/or wanting to experience it again.

One of the most enjoyable evenings we've spent. Billie's ability to laugh at life's realities and the pictures that he paints is truly an art. His sharing of the special relationships he has had with some of the greats, Muhammad Ali, Robin Williams, Howard Cosell, thank you, Billie.

Enjoyed Billy Crystal immensely! The evening was a mix of nostalgia and new material, all of it funny. I would recommend his show to anyone old enough to know who Sammy Davis Jr. and Mohammed Ali are! Bonnie Hunt doesn't add a lot to the proceedings, but it doesn't hurt to have her there.

Crystal covered a lot of material that was previously known but brought new insight to those parts of his career. He delved into his personal life, with help from Bonnie Hunt, to bring out anecdotes that presented him as more than just a comedian. Of course his career has been much more than that, as a biographical examination of his movie career showed. He seems to genuinely enjoy being an entertainer, and found time to examine our current political situation with his special insight. While it was a tad lengthy, I saw it as an opportunity to listen and spend time with someone who has been a part of life since his 'Soap' days. His genuine admiration for fellow performers and his optimistic view, even when colored by reality, showed his belief in the human spirit and the goal to keep pushing for a better world.

Having seen him in 700 Sundays, we had a pretty good idea there would be a lot of laughing and there was. Some of his material was repeated from his 700 Sundays show, but always worth hearing again. As expected there were political jokes and some crudeness that makes it inappropriate for young children. His tales about Mohammad Ali and Robin Williams were so heartwarming. Love his description of his long-term marriage. As someone who has been married for 36 years...to the same person, I loved how he talked about holding her hand and other things that we find ourselves doing, too. Humor is so important in a marriage.

Billy Crystal kept us captivated for over two hours with his wonderful anecdotes and improvisational comedy bits. He is one of the best, yet totally humble and down to earth. We enjoyed every moment! He could have done this as a solo one man show and it would have been just as great. Bonny Hunt was enjoyable as well.

Billy Crystal never disappoints. He chatted - very openly and with a good flow and lots of laughter - about his background and family, how he got into comedy, movies, impersonations and the charity work he's done. I was reserve at first about going - but - glad we did. Two hours flew by quickly with lots of laughs.

Overall, it is was great to be in the presence of a legend. He has done so much over an amazing time span. It was worth the time and money. I was disappointed and got bored because he spent so much time reminiscing about Muhammad Ali & Howard Cosell. Great and interesting men but I came to hear from and about Billy Crystal. I would have loved to hear more anecdotes like those he told about Jack Palance and Jack Nicholson.

What a career this man has had! it was very enjoyable to watch several montages of his movies, sitcoms (I had totally forgotten about "SOAP") the Academy Awards and - most importantly - his relationships with some incredible human beings: Mohammed Ali, Sammy Davis, Jr. and - my favorite - Robin Williams. It was a VERY enjoyable show, lots of laughs and - wait for it - pretty CLEAN! a great human being, sincere, honest, funny, endearing. I wasn't sure i would enjoy Bonnie Hunt but she worked in well for what he presented. She's from Chicago so she felt right at home.

My wife and I are huge Billy Crystal fans. His show was terrific. Bonnie Hunt did a great job as the moderator. Billy is an amazing storyteller. He shared a lot as to how he got started in show business, the people he admired and the reasons he still performs. The show was around 2 1/2 hrs. long. The time did go by quickly. We would both highly recommend seeing Billy Crystal. You will not be disappointed.

For some reason I had expected more of a traditional comedian's performance... standup... but what it really was more like was an episode of "Inside the Actor's Studio." A series of stories/anecdotes from behind the scenes of Billy's career... not sure I'd pay this sort of pricing for that again. But still a fun night out with some laughs. We had a good time...

We missed the first 15 minutes of the show because we were driving around the parking garage trying to find a vacant spot. What was frustrating was seeing numerous spaces secluded behind metal barricades. We wasted 35 minutes in that garage. We had planned on staying at the casino before departing the MGM, instead,we drove home. The next day was the end of Billy Crystal's 4 month tour. He was very funny and he is a great performer. Summary: Billy Crystal= A+, Theater at MGM= A, parking at MGM= F.

i rarely write reviews. while we love Billy Crystal and his humor this show was VERY disappointing. the format of his being "interviewed" was poorly constructed and delivered as we were expecting and would much preferred his comedy routine and "act". The big screen behind him should have displayed him during the show and our poor seats in the balcony could not see his facial expressions when he was using them for his humor. HIs stand up act would have been preferable to the format used for this show, as this seemed a recap of his career rather than what we were expecting to be a standup routine which would have been much funnier.

The Billy Crystal performance was a very enjoyable evening. He is an icon in the entertainment business and his stories of his friends and family were both funny and entertaining. His talk about some of his movies and movie clips added to the show. I am not sure why Bonnie Hunt was with him because she added nothing and he could easily carry the show himself, but she led him into different stories. My only major complaint was I read numerous reviews and everyone said the show was family friendly, at their venue. We brought our 17 year old daughter because she knew Billy Crystal from the movies. But, it was totally inappropriate for teenagers. I am not a prude at all, but it should have been clear this show, at the MGM Theater in National Harbor was not appropriate for teenagers. It was embarrassing.

A creative and fun way to relive some of Billy Crystals best moments. A combination of video and live cuts from Billy Crystals long history. The use of a female foil to help his memory and get the momentum going is a little strained but none the less effective. A fun evening but very scripted.

What a horrible disappointment. I know Billy Crystal is very talented but this show was a complete waste of time and money. Why does a man 69 years old find it necessary to use the "F" word in every sentence? I expected to be entertained not to hear him bash President Trump throughout the night. He spent a good deal of time campaigning for the Emmy Awards host job. That's not entertaining. I should have done a better job of researching the show before buying tickets. I guess a lot of people did because the theater was about half full for the one show. The highlights were the movie and TV clips, but I can pull those up on the internet for free. Never again.

Billy Crystal has had an amazing career and he is incredibly talented. I attended his show in Chicago on April 2, but was a bit disappointed. The show started 15 minutes late and then ran over 2 hours with no intermission. It would have been beneficial to have a close up of Crystal on the large screen behind him to be able to see his facial expressions. I did not sense a chemistry between Crystal and Bonnie Hunt and I thought their exchanges were contrived. I did enjoy the interjection of live footage from Billy's movies and TV appearances. I do appreciate how difficult it is to do a stand-up routine of that length.

Billy Crystal and Bonnie Hunt are a great team. Bonnie was the ultimate MC and Billy Crystal the ultimate storyteller. The casual, conversation in the living room style of the show was great. Billy's family history growing up and the people he met as a youngster helped build his foundation. His relationship with Mohammed Ali and Howard Cosell warmed my heart. Billy's movies, his time on SNL and his hosting the Oscars were wonderful memories. I could listen to Billy and Bonnie all night long.

I saw this show with my wife in Chicago last weekend. The best thing about it was the clips that they showed of his career. When he spoke, it was very much an ego trip. I expected to hear stand up with some life stories mixed in, and instead, it was just a constant feeling of him telling the audience that he's really awesome. I found it tedious and a little boring. (especially the 30 minute tangent about Muhammad Ali. We get it; you were friends with him. Congratulations.) I love Billy Crystal as a stand up and as an actor, but I would not recommend this particular tour.

Was not stand up. It was Billy Crystal telling jokes about being old and talking about his career as if he were seeking validation. I would discourage anyone under the age of 60 from seeing this show.

It was a good show, more of a talk show format than stand up comedy. He's just naturally funny.

The performance by Billy Crystal was very enjoyable and quite funny. The show was set up as a dialogue between Billy and Bonnie Hunt about his career and its longevity across near 40 years. It had video montages to give you a full retrospective of his many talents from stand-up to TV and film acting to hosting award shows. The high points were when Billy started reminiscing to the audience of his ongoing love and tributes to Muhammad Ali and their interactions with Howard Cosell. In addition, his stories concerning Sammy Davis Jr. were hilarious and you could feel the respect and admiration Billy had for the entertainment and sports greats that he imitated throughout his career. Unfortunately, the venue had sound and microphone issues which plagued him several times during the show but he kept moving along. His brief interludes of comedy built around current events also showed not everything was scripted and showcased his amazing comedic talent.

Billy is so inherently funny; His poignant remembrances with his favorite friends, all of whom have passed away, was really remarkable.

My husband and I cannot stop talking (and laughing) about how much we enjoyed the show. His presentation and delivery are amazing...I really think in part because he cares so much about his audiences...and he cares about people in general. He has had amazing experiences in his lifetime and his recollection of what he shared with the audience is just incredible!

It was not what I had expected. It was interesting hearing all of his stories over his career and then putting in jokes when appropriate. It was different, but very enjoyable.

Billy Crystal is still fabulous. The venue was packed; the ushers very helpful. The acoustics were wonderful - we sat in the farthest back of the theater, and heard everything.
