Ever since I bought / watched Chris Rock: Bigger & Blacker, I have really been wanting "Original Kings of Comedy".
How was it? .....is it as good as Rock's B&B? ....even if it is half as good, I'll probably still enjoy it.
Thanks for any comments

If you don't want to read a lot, let me just tell you I think it is a great film with some really shining moments. The only weak performance is that of D.L. Hughley which picks up at the end. Many of Steve Harvey's gags will have you rolling but Cedric the Entertainer's entire set is truly some of the best stand-up comedy caught on film. Bernie Mac wraps up the show and is sure not to disappoint. I definitely recommend Original Kings of Comedy. I also recommend you try renting Eddie Murphy's Raw and Delirious, although I don't think they are available on DVD yet but will make you laugh nonetheless.
