Def Comedy Jam 25 Audience Reviews

AutCuddly Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,
Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Kaelan Mccaffrey Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
KlassickVideo It's never easy to recreate legendary entertainment of the past, yet the DCJ 25th Anniversary Special left a lot to be desired, and I do mean a lot. Most noticeably absent was the classic, engaged DCJ rowdy audience renowned for encouraging and motivating a comic's act. Rather this production was attended by A-listers and elites who otherwise keep their too-good asses glued to their seats. If you ask me, I found the stale crowd insulting to the loyal fanfare who made it such a successful franchise. Unfortunately, DCJ-25 proved to be more about reminiscing for attendees than the great comedic content we lived for in the 90's. Overall, it was a teleprompter-laden presentation which lacked the LMFAO genius one would expect (given the All-Star talent in attendance).
dnadiyah If you're expecting any stand up, walk on. This is just 1 hour, 21 mins of everyone congratulating each other. It's like a roast, where everyone gushes about how amazing everyone else is. I think there was one joke.
'Amber M Lane When I saw the stellar guest list I assumed this was a no fail. Some of the absolute top names in comedy attending. They each took the stage and introduced one another with the odd one liner and heaps of praise I figured they were going to at least introduce some new talents or hand out awards or show us the impact the show had on society or etc... Nope. Just introduction after another and no actual comedy. sad.
biff-54079 This recording was seemingly put together for all of the legends of Def Comedy Jam to get dressed up and slap each other on the back for times gone by. In terms of pure comedic output, this was poor. If you'd wanted a stand up comedy, go back to the Original DCJ and enjoy. If you want a slightly emotional call back to 80s and 90s black comedy, give it a go. Mind you...nice to Chappelle back on stage in any form.
