This is theater at its most powerful. Go to Full Review
Aja Romano Vox 06/15/2020
Even unrefined and exhausted - or perhaps because it is both of those things - Chappelle's perspective on being black in America is still searing, powerful, and worth hearing. Go to Full Review
Lorraine Ali Los Angeles Times 06/15/2020
Dave Chappelle was not funny during his first stage performance in 87 days, an impassioned, 27-minute set that spoke to the cultural reckoning triggered by the killing of George Floyd. But the comedian was in top form. Go to Full Review
Kyle Smith National Review 06/23/2020
Chappelle is a gifted man with a well-earned reputation for calling out BS. Yet in this instance, he has fallen for it. Go to Full Review
David Griffin IGN Movies 06/18/2020
9/10
Dave Chappelle's 8:46 is one of his most profound and poignant specials ever, as the iconic comedian passionately tackles issues concerning racial disparity in America. Go to Full Review
Matthew Walther The Week 06/15/2020
The monologue Chappelle delivers is remarkable, both as a performance and as a text in its own right. Go to Full Review

Kid F 01/06/2024 Still the funniest comic. See more R W 08/03/2022 Tired, Lazy, sad and cringe-y. What a waste of my time. Save yourself the second-hand embarrassment and skip whatever he's done in the last 5 or so years. He needs to take another long vacation and find a decent therapist. It's just NOT FUNNY. See more 05/29/2022 Absolutely hilarious how the same people that hated this special are the same ones that LOVE his latest hacky trashfest, "the closer". Well at least Dave found the perfect audience to grift, right wingers. They love tossing their money, and more importantly, their time and effort into spreading their love for their heros online when those people echo their awful ideologically inspired bad takes. See more 11/13/2021 Wasn't really comedy, but still a great message for tough times where people seem to have lost their s**t. See more 11/03/2021 Dave Chappelle is brilliant. See more 10/23/2021 Not funny. Angry ranting sure, but not comedy. My first ever negative rating for this Comedy Master and Legend. See more Read all reviews
