Overview
Between sets from his hilarious live stand-up routine, in which he riffs on everything from Michael Jackson to terrorism, comedian Eddie Griffin tours his hometown of Kansas City and introduces viewers to his eccentric clan in this edgy mockumentary. Griffin's uproarious family members include oddballs such as Uncle Buckey, a former pimp, and Uncle Curtis, who possesses an extensive porn collection ... much of which he filmed himself!

... Griffin's social commentary is just as piercing and hilarious as the autobiographical stuff.
Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper
Fresh
One of the funnier and, in an odd way, disturbing stand-up concert films in a long while.
Michael O'Sullivan, Washington Post
Fresh
Highlights some of the best, and raunchiest, of [Griffin's] humor.
Claudia Puig, USA Today
Rotten
The cross-cutting feels too casual and is mostly executed in a jarringly random fashion.
Ted Fry, Seattle Times
