Customer Reviews:

3 out of 5 stars Good, but there is better out there.......2005-02-18

I am a big fan of stand up comedy. I like seeing the comics grow into other roles (Eddie Murphy, DL Hughley, Cedric, Bernie Mac and others) I love the timing, quick wit, and delivery style of comics and there is nothing (well only one other thing) that can ease your mind of your troubles better than laughter.

This DVD is very good but there is better out there. Monique is a the top of her game right now she is raw (not as raw as in the Queens of Comedy) but she is on it. It would have been nice to have more of her in this, but she is very funny. The other comics are good but if you want funny all the way through the DVD of Latham Entertainment Presents with Bruce Bruce, Sommore,Earthquake, J.Anthony Brown and Ricky Smiley is much funnier. From funniest to least funny is Esau (he keeps a straight face while telling funny stories) Chris Spencer (suprisingly funny) DeRay (appeared in Barbershop, lots of cussing and ruff humor) and Doug (he was cool but maybe it was his material for me) Buy it used if you really want it otherwise look at other stuff......NOTE: Rodney Perry IS NOT doing a routine in this he is only the co-host.
