Chris Tucker: Live (2015)

It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny

The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

Love Chris Tucker, wanted it to last longer. I am such a fan.

I'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.

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 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.
