Like Rock's best stand-up shows, Top Five mixes the sweet with the salty, the naughty with the remarkably kind. It celebrates the darkly hilarious with the light of whip-smart observations.

A seriously funny, semi-autobiographical film that might be the most accomplished work Chris Rock has ever done for the big screen.
