Love Chris Tucker, wanted it to last longer. I am such a fan.
Meh. It's basically Chris Tucker doing Eddie Murphy's 80's material for about 90 minutes. Even so far as to do a Michael Jackson Impression that lasted about 10 minutes too long. He has nothing new, insightful or even intelligent to say.Everything has been done before better by somebody else. Is it terrible? Not exactly, I'll admit there we a few genuine belly laughs, but those were far and few. While, I'll agree there was a time when Tucker was shining a rising star that was a long time ago and his brand of comedy shows his age. Comedy, much like humor, changes and transforms and Tucker, while still entertaining; hasn't in my opinion transformed with it
i'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.
I saw this on Netflix not even knowing Tucker was about to do a special and with so many comedians doing specials these days, I was somewhat sceptical about this release a) because I hadn't seen Chris Tucker in any stand-up since Def Comedy Jam and b) the amount of profanity this could potentially have. I must say I was totally blown away. The jokes were original and actually really funny. I spend most of my time listening to stand up from a vast array of comedians (Jim Gaffigan, Brian Reagan, Steve Harvey, Kevin Hart (before the glam) etc) and it takes a lot, a whole lot to get me on the floor laughing - but this special actually did. Chris' impersonations are rock solid. A few topics dragged on for a while but for the most part he held it up and profanity while present was kept to "somewhat" of a manageable minimum. I came into work today to see if anyone else had reviewed this special and was shocked at some of the professional critics comments I saw. Give him a break will you. Well done Chris - this actually tops a number of specials out there and you deserve to have your 15 minutes on this one. Not sure if its worth signing up to Netflix for if you don't already have a membership but for those like myself who have enjoyed Netflix for quite sometime, I have to say this was definitely a positive addition to the line up.
