Advantages: Great comedy DVD, good comedian Disadvantages: Not my favourite stand up
...and ended up picking this Chris Rock DVD for a number of reasons. Firstly, it was only £5, which was pretty good since most standup offerings cost a tenner if not more, and with my student discount it would only set me back £4.50; secondly, I’ve only ever really seen British and Irish comedians’ shows before, and so fancied something from over the pond; and thirdly, I’d heard great things about Chris Rock, and every time I’d seen a clip of one of ... ...I purchased a copy of Chris Rock: Never Scared, along with another three DVDs that I am working my way through reviewing (The Prestige, Good Night and Good Luck and the first series of A Bit of Fry and Laurie). Since The Prestige is one of my all time favourite films I watched it first, and then a couple of days later decided to go for this comedy when my boyfriend was over. I wasn’t totally sure what to expect from Chris Rock, as all stand up comedians ...

Advantages: Allways has me in stiches Disadvantages: If you can't handle rudeness then don't watch it.
...very beginning of the DVD Chris jumps into jokes about strippers and their clear heels to shamed celebrities down to a somewhat disappointment about married life. All of the above of course as all been laid out as a joke, I would repeat some of them, but they are far too rude and I don't want to end up offending anyone. As I watched the DVD I constantly kept on thinking to myself Chris Rock cannot have much celebrity friends and if he does then damn, ... ...What I think Chris Rock as done really well in this DVD is that he not only makes you laugh but he also opens up your mind and makes you think broadly about certain subjects. For example, he talks a bit about America going to war against Iraq. He mentioned in this joke "They say Iraq is one of the most dangerous countries but if Iraq was so dangerous why did the Americans manage to take over so quickly" Come on now, you and I know that this is somehow ...

Advantages: ridiculously funny 5 star entertainment Disadvantages: you may feel pain after laughing so much
Chris Rock is a comedy Genuis, he is in a lot of things, all in which are hillarious, my favourite is the television series "Everybody Hates Chris" it is inspired by Chris Rocks life as a kid and is gunius. This DVD is Amazing, It is clasic, funny, and smart it is extremly funny and the whole DVD performanced can be previewed on Youtube. My favourite scenes are "Chris Rock about Rappers" and " Chris Rock about Strippers" they are the funniest bits. ... ...it was hilarious.
The Chris Rock on strippers is so funny he says that "if your daughter is a stripper you is fucked up" I laughed for so long I fell off my chair. He says "when did clear heels become the new whore uniform.... was there a big old hoe convention and all the hoes got together and said we need somthing new somthing that just says nasty then one girl said 'i got it, Clear Heels' ooo girl you disgusting" it was so funny, I told a few ...

Im a fan of chris rock i simply love his material, im also really getting into the new series on chanel 5 called everybody hates chris, check that out people no doubt i will review that too when it hits the DVD market.
Sorry i digress back to the product at hand, "chris rock - Never scared"
the problem with reviewing stand up in my opinion is that its hard to tell you about and resist re-telling the jokes so i will do my best.
For anyone who doesnt ... ...life.
On this DVD chris is looking older now pushing 39 years old but i think over time he has just got better delivering a great performance.
His interaction with the crowd is minimal but i put this down to the sheer size of the audience he is in front of.
OK we start off with a view of the sell out crowd and chris takes to the stage, where he in relentless in his material, touching on subjects such as Rap music, michael jackson, R kelly, the ...
