Filmed at the Center Stage Theater in Atlanta, Wayans delivers a hilarious hour-long performance, unleashing his spot-on impressions and fearless physical comedy to address one of the most infamous recent events in pop culture -- "the slap" that took place at the 94th Academy Awards® ceremony. With his inimitable blunt and boisterous style, Wayans skillfully weaves anecdotes from his own life with stories about his long-time friends, from divulging his teenage crush on Jada Pinkett Smith, getting humbled by Chris Rock in an early stand-up set, and examining the impact of Will Smith's long career. A daring tour-de-force, this special is a hysterical yet thoughtful exploration of friendship, family, mistakes, and redemption.

Marlon now can thank Chris for roasting him as a young comic, thank Will for taking all those movie roles that he had unsuccessfully auditioned for, and Jada for teaching him about love. Go to Full Review Dustin Rowles Pajiba 03/06/2023
It’s a ferocious but hilarious love letter to two men who hopefully will not spend the rest of their careers defined by The Slap. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Christina T 04/06/2023 Masterfully done! I laughed heartily throughout. It was a different approach I was not expecting. Woven together beautifully from start to finish. If you haven't seen "God Loves Me", you are missing out! Go watch it. See more Joacim 03/29/2023 Long time since i laughed som much at a comedy special 😂 See more 03/13/2023 Very funny. Love it. See more Junior R 03/10/2023 Marlon Wayans is one funny MFer. This shit made me laugh hard. Marlon is a goat. Hope he gets a another special with HBOMAX. I dont know why people are dissing this. Personally I liked this more than Chris Rock live special that he just did. 5 star my goat See more Karl S 03/06/2023 Fun watch. Entertaining See more FuzzBuzzGarcia G 03/03/2023 I enjoyed seeing Marlon back on stage but 20 mins into this and i felt like he lingered too much on that will smith and chris rock slap,his punch line for that was smooth though, then he spent another 10 mins on jada pinket smith and by then i was already bored. Overall i think marlon is funny af but this stand up def wasnt that funny for me. See more Read all reviews
