Chris Tucker Live (TV Special 2015)

Chris Tucker Live: Directed by Phil Joanou. With Chris Tucker. In this Netflix special, Chris Tucker returns to the stage he loves and showcases his mind-blowing comedic chops as he shares his experiences from childhood to the big time.

“Chris Tucker is clearly a naturally funny dude. Itu0026#39;s obvious that he lives his humor, and that his performances are, in large, him just continuing to live that humor but in front of an audience. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIn this live show he gives us half a lifetime of stories, many from his apparently humble beginnings (i.e. growing up in a Black American family), and many from his post- stardom high-profile experiences (e.g. select highlights from his friendships with Michael Jackson and Bill Clinton). The variety of subjects covered in this 90 minute special was incredible and kept the show fresh and unpredictable. There is a laugh somewhere for everyone. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIn all, Tucker was having fun on stage and it showed. His animation, expressiveness, and flare permeated the entire set. He not only told his stories; he performed them with theater-like intensity. Watching him in his zone is an immersive experience, as youu0026#39;re made to feel like youu0026#39;re right there with him in whatever moment heu0026#39;s recalling.”
