A 2017 stand-up special by comedian Dave Chappelle, produced by Netflix. Covers ground that fans of Dave Chappelle will be used to, e.g. race issues, plus looks into the current political situation in the US. If you're a fan of Dave Chappelle, as I am, you'll know what to expect - biting, irreverent, fearless humour, delivered in distinctive colourful style. Screamingly funny at times, making you think it was the early 2000s all over again. However, not always funny, unfortunately. Chappelle goes into US politics and often it's more a rant than joke. Even his jokes on the subject seem predictable and below him. He should just have stuck to his usual subjects and stayed clear of politics. Ultimately, very funny, but in spells - quite uneven. Too many dull bits to be brilliant. Unlike his earlier stuff, which never had an unfunny moment.

Dave Chapelle is the goat and this is one of his finest works. Its current rating is ridiculously low for the quality of this masterpiece.

Equanimity is relevant, deep, and modern. I thought his first two were ok... but this one seemed truly composed and prepared. If made you laugh and shared a message at the same time.

This is a masterclass. Look, the jokes arent quick and quirky , but the stories that lead up to the hilarity takes time to build, to appreciate. I enjoyed the stories and I enjoyed the eventual funny twist. Dave's back and he's different, people change, he's not a cooked up pothead anymore, the man is a poet and he's brilliant. If you want quick crappy jokes then listen to Katt Williams or Corey Holcomb, this is philosophy with a funny bone. I did wish he didn't bash Trump but thats the season nowadays it seems.

I'm not a huge fan of stand-up, but this is hysterical, clever and awesome (1 viewing)

This was a pretty fun special by Dave Chappelle. He had a great move where he told us a punch line first and then went on with telling the story. This shows what a great comedian he is because when he ended the joke with a punchline it was still hilarious.. I like how he is not bending down to the snowflakes and tells how he will keep on telling the jokes they find offensive. And he is not just doing it as a statement but as a fun statement with many jokes in it. After he goes through a political part. It is also fun. I am slightly sick of the Trump stories, not because I like him but because it is everywhere. But Dave Chappelle is great at it. I think he can people laugh who also disagree with him. I liked Hillary but I still laughed through his jokes about election. The end segment on Emmett Till was a bit weird. It wasn't bad, it was a pretty interesting speech, but it was not funny which makes one wonder if it belongs into a stand up. He ended it in a hilarious way with an unsuspecting twist but it was a bit too long.
