Movie Reviews of Chappelle's Show - Season 1 Uncensored
Movie Review: EXTREMELY HILARIOUS!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
When I first saw Dave Chappelle in the mid 90's, I felt that he was a pretty decent run-of-the-mill comic....UNTIL NOW!!! I think he's highly intelligent as well as a comedic genious by pushing the envelopes of social issues and making us laugh at ourselves. He takes risks and doesn't hold any punches by doing so.
I'm an African-American, but do I consider myself an 'N' word? Not by any means...however, I feel the word takes on a more humorous and less threatening meaning...we can't act like the word doesn't exist; we just have to change our way of thinking about it. I've heard Dave use the 'N' words toward white people in his sketches as well!!!! He has taken a word that was used to make African-Americans feel inferior and less than human and diluted it to a universal terminology for ANYONE OF ANY RACE!!! (comedic genious) We as people in today's society must learn not to take life so seriously; times change, people change, and words change meaning over time (like the word "gay").
DAVE CHAPPELLE GETS MAD PROPS FROM THE ATL!!!! KEEP DOING YOUR THING!!!!! I cant wait 'till the SECOND season comes out on DVD!!!
Movie Review: Best cross over comic since Murphy! Now on DVD!
Summary: 5 Stars
When I heard about Dave getting his own show last year I was so happy. I was impressed with his ability to stay "ghetto" and have that "white" humor that many may not get.His strong point is that he can cross between the two and pull in both audiences. It's not 100% all the time. Especially when he's injecting his politics.
Other than that he is able to poke fun at everyone. Just like Chris Rock, no race or gender is safe. His sketch comedy routines voice the things that one race may not like to say about another. Most importantly, it voices the things races feel about themselves. His show just allows you to laugh at them in a playful manner.
Best features are the "Great Moments In Hook Up History" complete with stats and that great NFL Films-esque voice over.
There is also the infamous "Piss On You" video and the following remix.
The second seems to be another classic, but, that's for the next DVD set.
Twelve episodes seems to few to enjoy. But, it's worth the price.
Movie Review: The funniest show I have ever seen
Summary: 5 Stars
With the amount of wannabe comics that are out there today, it is hard to find the geniune article. Well let me tell you. Dave Chappelle is without a doubt the funniest man alive today. The Chapelle Show is filled with controversial, outrageous, and overall hilarious skits that are guaranteed to have you laughing until your stomach hurts. Even the most up tight and liberal minded people will enjoy this show. The show manages to poke fun at racism and all the stereotypes of today very effectively. You will see everything from Chappelle playing a black white supremacist, to a skit done on black people receiving slave reperations and the effect that it has on the economy. Seeing this show on DVD is the only way to go, because it is completely uncensored. Nothing kills the mood more, than an annoying beep from the censors that you would see on Comedy Central. Now you get to see the show uncut and in its entirety without commercial interruption. If there was ever a reason to own a DVD, it is the Chapelle Show!!A solid 5 stars....
Movie Review: Best Show on TV Right Now
Summary: 5 Stars
I don't think anyone is going to be reading this review who doesn't know what to expect from the Chappelle Show: Hip, edgy, and above all funny. I bought the DVD (and man did I have to hunt through a lot of stores to find one) mostly because I had started watcing season 2, and wanted see what I had missed during the first season. Let me say it plainly, the first season is AWESOME. I own a lot of TV DVD collections, and within twenty minutes of popping this one in the DVD player my roommates all agreed that this was our new favorite DVD. It's one of those DVDs that is so funny that you have to stop watching it at some point, because you're so worn out from laughing.
Just to remind some of you who are on the fence about buying it, this season has;
1) The Player Haters Ball
2) The Black KKK Leader
3) The MAD Real World
4) Trading Spouses
5) What if Blacks Actually Got Reperations
6) and of course, Tyrone the Pipe-head giving an anti-drug lesson to first graders.
Get this DVD, you'll love it
Movie Review: Close to comedic brilliance
Summary: 5 Stars
Possibly the best show to premiere on Comedy Central since South Park, gifted comedian Dave Chappelle's half hour comedy show is a work of near comic brilliance. The first episode, even though it may start out a bit shakey, ends hysterically as Dave introduces us to Clayton Bigsby; a blind, black, white supremicist. Dave also spoofs comercials, various TV shows, and celebrities in general, while delivering hilarious sketches such as "The Mad Real World" in which a token white guy is trapped in a house with a group of the craziest black people on the planet, a music video spoofing R. Kelly's private life, and an autobiographical movie in the spirit of Antwone Fisher where Dave can't help but lie. Season 1 of Chapelle's Show borderlines on juvenile (and in some cases it goes over) but it is undeniably hilarious; the only downside of this DVD set is that Paramount hardly included any extras. It's still at a good price though, and is more than worth buying if you're a fan of the show.
