This review is from: Russell Simmon's Def Comedy Jam 5 Volume Set [VHS] (VHS Tape)

The majority of the comic acts are unknown - possible because they weren't that good but the video does feature the bigger names - Martin Lawrence, Chris Tucker, Bernie Mac (and a couple of the other Kings Of COmedy) to name a few. To be fair about 40% of the material was funny and a few had me "messed up" but the bottom line is these videos are old as hell, "classics" for want of a better word!! A lot of the references are from the mid 90's but the better material was timeless. The funniest comedien did jokes about roaches in New York apartments, ghetto women who love to fight and HIV candidates. Tasteless maybe but FUNNY AS [HECK]! Neither good nor bad...but is it worth nearly [amt.]......Nah! P.S The box set is basically comprised of titles you can buy separately online at Amazon (sorry but I can't be asked to go downstairs to verify which ones)
