Trailer Synopsis Cast

Comedian Cedric the Entertainer uses his considerable appeal to introduce some up-and-coming young stand-up comedians. Cedric himself takes on topics such as Bill Clinton, the death penalty, reality television, fast-food chicken, church etiquette, and much more. The other comedians are a mixed lot: Roland Powell amusingly mocks insecure boyfriends and sings a singles bar pick-up song and Juan Villareal gets some laughs out of food stamps and The Blair Witch Project, while Tony Luewellyn flounders through weak material about Ex-Lax and the war on terror. Then along comes J.J., who gives a surreal spin to roadkill and giving birth to septuplets.

It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

I came to this after seeing this man as part of the Original Kinds of Comedy. Interested to see some more, I picked this one at random. It's okay, nothing particularly interesting. Sometimes it's just a show, only another stop in a tour, nothing more to say. But how about we say something more just for the heck of it? How about we say that sometimes the performer is so inspired, he sets the place on fire? How about sometimes the audience is so fiery and loving it, it seduces fire out of the man? And in other, rare times it's some strange confluence of cosmic gear where the world outside aligns with inside to bring us to a night that acquires significance?If you had to guess, would you expect anything extraordinary from a show staged in a boxing ring in a casino hotel?
