    Basically a Jay Pharoah comedy show

    If you are a fan of his impersonations then you will appreciate this movie. It's funny but full of clichΓ©s.

    Hella Funny

    Hella Funny πŸ˜‚ Don't read these comments and miss a decent comedy flick that hits. It has some of our hottest comedians in the game making even better. It's no Harlem Nights, but the spot lights on black comedians got that same flavor. πŸ‘πŸΎπŸ‘πŸΎπŸ‘πŸΎ

    I Could Have Been Worse

    Let me start off by saying I love Jay Pharoah and Kat Williams, but this film fell flat as a pancake. I really was hoping that it would be a doubled-over, side hurting, laughing out loud, crying tears comedy. But it was such a let down because given the cast my expectations were set high. I just feel as though this film was made just so we could see Sinbad, George Wallace, Lunell all in one film. Being from Birmingham, AL myself I have to admit I was a bit insulted and confused. It just felt like it was only where he (Jay Pharoah) was from for the purpose of being a punchline. But on the contrary Birmingham is where many black comics get their start i.e. Ricky Smiley, Roy Wood Jr. to name a couple. I really like Jay Pharoah but I am past his impressions at this point. They're good but not as funny anymore. All in all this was a mediocre film at best and I wish they (all the comics) could have been seen in a better movie.

    The ALL STAR Cast 15 out of 10

    People need to expand their minds & be open to the legendary comics on the screen!! Katt Williams may not be Kevin Hart but they both are hilarious in their own ways!!

    VERY entertaining feel good movie

    I wanted to watch something light and was delighted and surprised to watch this VERY funny feel good movie. Liked it so much I looked up Jay Pharoah who I wasn't familiar.with. Found out he is a SNL alum, which made sense. I am an independent film movie buff, that goes to the the Pan African Film Festival every year and this was well done and entertaining movie. When I saw that this movie was not rated well it motivated me to register for IMBD to start rating movies. I remember critics did not like the Five Heartbeats
