I was totally surprised at how great this film.You could feel your paranoia rise as the film went on and as you gradually learned the details of the real situation.

... View MoreLove Chris Tucker, wanted it to last longer. I am such a fan.
... View MoreChris Tucker is clearly a naturally funny dude. It's obvious that he lives his humor, and that his performances are, in large, him just continuing to live that humor but in front of an audience. In this live show he gives us half a lifetime of stories, many from his apparently humble beginnings (i.e. growing up in a Black American family), and many from his post- stardom high-profile experiences (e.g. select highlights from his friendships with Michael Jackson and Bill Clinton). The variety of subjects covered in this 90 minute special was incredible and kept the show fresh and unpredictable. There is a laugh somewhere for everyone. In all, Tucker was having fun on stage and it showed. His animation, expressiveness, and flare permeated the entire set. He not only told his stories; he performed them with theater-like intensity. Watching him in his zone is an immersive experience, as you're made to feel like you're right there with him in whatever moment he's recalling.
... View MoreI'm not an American and this stand-up of Chris is SO focused on American culture and American racial-stereotypes, that ONLY Americans would find this stand-up funny, since I couldn't keep up with even 10% of the references that were made in this routine. Constantly talking about black & white stereotypes and making jokes about little-known celebrities like jermaine dupri and many others, simply mean that you won't know what the heck Chris is talking about if you're from anywhere other than America.Simply unfunny (3/10), I didn't laugh once through the entire 1hour31mins. I've got nothing against Chris' acting though, I loved him in 5th Element and Rush Hour. I'll just stay away from all his stand-up from now on, and just watch his movies rather.
... View Morei'm a big Tucker fan, and i really wanted to like this but man, it was bad. There was some funny jokes here and there but overall it was a disaster. and the fact that it was 90 minutes long didn't help either. plus some of his bits were from Eddie Murphy, Martin Lawrence and others. and him dragging every f@cking joke was just really cringe-worthy. i really felt bad for him, even the crowd was bored. i think if this was a 30 minutes special it would've been way better, specially since there will be no time for him to drag and explain every goddamn joke. i was really excited and looking forward for his comeback, but this was disappointing. i only gave it 3 Stars because it's Chris Tucker, if it was someone else i would probably give it 1- 2 Stars. P.S. He confirmed that there will not be another Friday, which at first bummed me out, but after watching the whole special i was glad cause that would've destroyed his legacy. i hate to say it, but i think he lost it. hope i'm wrong tho.
