Don't expect Def Comedy Jam
This recording was seemingly put together for all of the legends of Def Comedy Jam to get dressed up and slap each other on the back for times gone by. In terms of pure comedic output, this was poor. If you'd wanted a stand up comedy, go back to the Original DCJ and enjoy. If you want a slightly emotional call back to 80s and 90s black comedy, give it a go. Mind you...nice to Chappelle back on stage in any form.
A 1 hour, 21 min ego stroking exercise.
If you're expecting any stand up, walk on. This is just 1 hour, 21 mins of everyone congratulating each other. It's like a roast, where everyone gushes about how amazing everyone else is. I think there was one joke.
Boring
Old men and women having fun by themselves. If you are family you might find this amusing. Or boring. But for the rest of the audience it is plain boring. Old gags. And overall the amusement of dull old men, and women, remembering the good old times when they meant something. Interesting enough, smart guys like Chris Rock just sent a recording to say hi. Here are just the losers.
disappointing
When I saw the stellar guest list I assumed this was a no fail. Some of the absolute top names in comedy attending. They each took the stage and introduced one another with the odd one liner and heaps of praise I figured they were going to at least introduce some new talents or hand out awards or show us the impact the show had on society or etc... Nope. Just introduction after another and no actual comedy. sad.
An Honest Review
This hurt, and it hurt bad. The show in the 90s was hysterical and they were trying, they were hungry, they were some of the funniest people on HBO. This is, "ego stroking" I believe is what one reviewer called it. It's lame, it's nostalgia without actually trying to be funny again. And that kind of kills memories.
