Rating: - Mike Epps
Overall I can say that this was funny. Mike Epps had his moments where you can tell he was trying to think of something to say so he would bust out with something he said in one his movie roles, but he did say some funny junk and this was my first time seeing him do standup so I feel he did rather well. He knows how to keep his crowds attention even if he has to say something stupid and off the wall.
Rating: - SUCKS!
I like Mike Epps, in every movie I've seen him in he does a good job, BUT this dvd has nothing funny to it, he uses a lot of material from his movie parts that worked fine then but don't come across in a stand up bit. So overall if you want something funny, this aint it.

For those who think this man is not intelligent; the joke is on you. Mike Epps is definitely the best comic out today. I watched his routine closely several times. I caught him break character once or twice and he recovered nicely. His genius is that he is believable as the court jester. Would you call Gilbert Gotfried ignorant? How about Frank Fountaine as crazy gougenheim on the old Jackie Gleason show? The brother has honed his craft well.

I was totally blown the first time I watched this DVD. As a matter of fact I turned it off about 10 minutes into his routine. Epps is quick to let the audience know that he is only working to earn back the money he'd already spent from his first films- I can't imagine that he's broke but anyway that's not why you're reading this review. A week went by and I decided to give Epps another chance... He is ignorant as HELL but hilarious. Definitely not your Rock or Chappelle kind of humor, Epps is straight 'gutter'. Perhaps that is the reason I was first turned off. When I attempted to watch the DVD again knowing what to expect I have to tell you that I thoroughly enjoyed it. Yes, Epps is a bit slow at times- and this he admits- but having been forewarned I'm sure you'll too enjoy yourself (especially if you are an Epps fan). On a final note you get both a DVD and CD for your money.

I was so disappointed with Mike Epps because I love him. I there was a zero star rating thats what this dvd would get. But like someone else said, stand up isn't for everyone. It was horrible I haven't even watched the whole dvd yet. I would go out and buy Katt Williams The Pimp Chronicles instead.
