Dave Chappelle had a dream, and with his infectious easy charm it was never unlikely he'd make it a reality. Michel Gondry's documentary follows the comedian on his travels through the heartlands of America to throw the ultimate Brooklyn block party. A life affirming and good natured journey punctuated by performances from some of Hip Hop and R&B's royalty; amongst them Kane West, Jill Scott, Erykah Badu, The Roots, Cody Chestnutt and the Fugees. Good times. find out more...

If someone called you a 'Googlewhack' what would you do? You might reasonably ask them what it meant but you wouldn't probably end up playing table tennis with a 9-year-old boy in a Boston basement. You probably wouldn't wind up in Los Angeles with three snakes on your head either. It is highly unlikely that you'd end up in a car with a gun toting dot-com millionaire en-route to Mexico to buy coke (cola) and drugs (prescription). But then you're not Dave Gorman are you?

An ivy league college becomes an explosive battle ground for racial tensions that have been simmering away for decades after a horrendous Halloween party is thrown in poor taste by the affluent, over-entitled, racist white kids. Hilarious and right on the money, make time for it.

The stuff that was too much for the televison public to watch, but here it is for you to rent. Anyway, the comedy, while a bit bluer, is still a hit and miss affair with pop references becoming more obscure as time moves on. Wildman Steve is a highlight though. find out more...

Pretty much every class black American to have strutted his stuff and tickled the funny bone in the last 15 years gets an airing in this Def Comedy Jam extravaganza. Only Jamie Foxx has so far escaped the ‘great comic, crap movies' curse, but you can only hope, as all stand ups seem to feel the need to, that comedians this sharp (bar Martin Lawrence?) will, at some point, escape the boards in style. find out more...

Denis Leary, the acid-head, acid tongued Willem Defoe lookalike is one of the best stand-ups to have come out of the US. Fag in hand, his routines are a long and acerbic diatribe against politics, stars, anti-smokers and anyone else he doesn't like! Sarcastic, witty and very funny. find out more...
