Entertainment Reviews:
...NOTORIOUS C.H.O. is a meticulously constructed performance in which every word, inflection and beat is calculated for precise effect...
New York Times
...Margaret Cho has become a one-woman comic army....Her weapons are a wildly imaginative sense of humor and the courage to be absolutely uninhibited...
Los Angeles Times
...Cho, a clarion voice of reason in an unreasonable word, has a rare comic brilliance, incisiveness and relatability...
Box Office
...Cho, with a melodious Valley Girl voice just this side of sarcastic, goes beyond the confessional; showcasing her own follies, she's gleefully, blasphemously invasive...

Product Description:
Trash-talkin' comedian Margaret Cho, famous for her one-woman shows, her tough but also feminine image, and her awareness of social issues, returns to the screen in NOTORIOUS C.H.O. THE MOVIE, directed by Lorene Machado. This follow-up to Cho's successful 2000 show I'M THE ONE THAT I WANT continues to test the boundaries of irreverent humor while raunchily celebrating the explicit personal anecdotes of its star. Cho fearlessly tackles a wide variety of issues with equal parts sarcasm, heart, and pride. Nothing is sacred. She takes the audience on a wild ride that includes colonics, fisting, and sexual fetishes and revisits some of her favorite topics including gay rights, body image, and self-esteem issues. Cho revels in facial expressions, and fans of Cho will remember her riotous impression of her traditional Korean mother (whom viewers finally get to meet!) In NOTORIOUS, she continues to use her cartoonish expressions to remark on and highlight her candid humor with hysterical results. Cho has an uncanny ability to celebrate diversity, she is a self-proclaimed "fag-hag, Korean-American, bisexual", with biting humor and very little sentimentality. NOTORIOUS C.H.O., which takes its title and inspiration from the fearless ladies of hip hop (think Lil' Kim), once again proves that Cho is a first-rate comedian who ranks up there with Sandra Bernhard, Richard Pryor, or George Carlin.
