Kristian B Jan 4 Definitely worth watching. See more David D Dec 15 Who doesn't love Dave Chappelle. He is one funny mother! Here I feel, it's a disorganised Gonzo. If it wasn't Dave, I'm not sure I would have finished it. See more 10/08/2024 FRECKEN AWESOME... enjoy 😉 See more B A 10/08/2024 The reviews are a perfect example of the disconnect between Hollywood and the rest of the USA.
