Dave Chappelle: For What It's Worth

I would recommend to those who love to laugh

There is nothing to say but laugh until you cry! Never have I seen Chappelle ever pull a bad joke! He is a Legend of comedy!! Never pass up on a Chappelle DVD ever! Best Comedian Out there, sadly we are loosing our comedians due to "feelings'...so Dave/K. Hart touch upon that is newer shows!!! Glad Dave will never censor & K. Hart! Legends of Comdey

Loved watching his stand up back in the early 2000s. Glad to be able to still watch some of it whenever I want now

The first time I watched this video, I was with my husband who recently died of cancer. He loved funny videos and this one took us both so far out of our sorrow and into our "Happy Place!" I laughed so hard that my husband kept saying to me, "Pammie! Breathe! Breathe!" I couldn't catch my breath! The part about the "hold up" on the bus... OMG! That was hillarious! And the monkey! It went on and on... I didn't get a breather until it was completely OVER because it was funny, start to finish - true Dave Chappelle style! It was GREAT! And Thanks Dave, for the laughs, when laughs weren't always easy to come by... This will always be one of my favorite stand-up comedies of all time!

Chappelle starts off strong in this, especially with the "being held hostage by a homeless guy" and the "I smoked with Native Americans" opening sections, but as his act goes on, the humor starts to lose its edge and Mr. Chappelle can't seem to keep himself afloat for the running time. He starts to degrade into things like shaving his testicles, some not-so-funny spiels on notorious trials, infamous kidnappings, sex with monkeys, George Washington, and just a rambling of things that just aren't nearly on the same level as his acclaimed Killing Them Softly.The "George Washington" part is a terrible bomb, because Chappelle refers to his writing of the Declaration of Independence, which is, of course, a few decades earlier than his death, and Washington had nothing to do with that, as any half-educated person would know. Although he goes on to mention that he was a slave owner while also quoting the document, nothing can really make up for the fact that it isn't really nitpicking to be off about something so critical (Washington had nothing to do with the Declaration, of course). Then he goes onto some basic themes about race relations, none of which is really profound.The rest is very meh. Nothing after the first half is all that funny or original. He touches on such common comedy issues without any real edge, and it drags. It's really a shame, but it just falls apart the more it goes on.This is definitely no Killing Them Softly. It starts strong, but just starts to break down as it goes on, and Chappelle seems gradually more tired as it goes on. I can't imagine myself watching the second half again; maybe the first half because it's funny twice, but the second half is just not Chappelle quality.

This is one of the best stand-up specials I've seen in my life thus far, and easily my favorite by Dave Chappelle. He really is at the top of his game here, and shows why he was such a highly respected comedian and entertainer. Most of the bits here are simply hilarious, and even the bits that are less than great are still far better than most other comics out there (*cough* Dane Cook *cough*). I've seen this special over a dozen times, and his delivery here is so spot-on, and his timing so perfect, that it seems more funny each time I watch it. I don't know what the heck he's doing now, but if he ever puts out another DVD like this one, I'll buy it the day it comes out.

the more i watch this, the more i love it. this dude runs my life...i find myself quoting this standup more than anything he ever put out. this dudes at the top of his game. all the haters can keep on hating but they know deep down they have more love for this dude than anyone in the game. in this one, the indian bit, the homeless bus bit, the monkey bit, the grape drink, the disney world, and of course the botox balls (my personal favorite). all of it is good...sm00th as eggs baby!

Like Paul Mooney...this is one of the few comics who isn't a TRUE puppet. Respect Dave for keeping it real and not selling out, money can easily pervert ones thinking and standards. Found Killin' Them Softly to be better (my opinion), but still wanted to give this 5 stars. Enjoy Dave Chappelle & Paul Mooney while they are still alive...it has been proven, step on the wrong toes in this country they will off you faster than Tupac & Michael Jackson.

I adore Dave Chappelle. This DVD is my regular comedy fix until I get the opportunity to see him in person. If you're a Dave Chappelle fan, you won't be disappointed.

I love tom chapelle he just disappeared after he got his bit what a shame

Wie immer sind Dave Chappelle's jokes zum einen sehr humorvoll und regen zum Anderen doch auch zum Nachdenken an. In seinen Parodien steckt viel Wahrheit und das ein oder andere Mal kann man sich oder sein Umfeld sogar selbst darin erkennen.Für mich hat sich der Kauf auf jeden Fall gelohnt.Wer sich ein Bild davon machen will, kann den Titel ja mal im Internet eingeben und auf manchen Websites kleine Ausschnitte als Vorgeschmack sehen ;-)

quite possibly my favorite stand up routine ever, if you like dave chappelle its totally worth the money

Dave Chappelle’s second best stand up a must have for fans
