Following a string of artistic and personal setbacks -- including a widely publicized run-in with the police -- bad boy of comedy Martin Lawrence returns to his stand-up roots in a solo show that exposes his uncensored views on career, relationships, society and the media. Filmmaker David Raynr is on hand to document Lawrence's January 2002 performance at Constitution Hall in Washington, D.C., interspersing the comedian's raunchy, curse-laden monologues with candid behind-the-scenes footage.

Critics Consensus

Lawrence's delivery can be funny, but the content is stale.

eye WEEKLY

Comes off as a long, laborious whine, the bellyaching of a paranoid and unlikable man.

Austin Chronicle

Very little of the material is revelatory or digs very deeply into Lawrence's troubles.

Saw show 2/8/25 - Houston. Pretty sure Martin was drunk… slurring, mispronouncing words, running around stage with no direction & lack of energy in show. He was disappointing , the opening acts were better than him. Folks were leaving part way thru his set. Martin do better, people pay a lot of $ to see you. Give them what they deserve!

What an unlikable man. Jokes about instilling fear in and abusing your children are ugly and not remotely amusing. Hideous.

Out of all the stand up specials out there, this is the one that got a theatrical release? It's awful. Lawrence's jokes are crude and unfunny.

I thought that this stand up was pretty damn funny. Not the biggest Dan of Martin, but I must say, this was quite entertaining. Good topics and he really did a great job on his material.
