This movie is One of a kind, it created a magic that most films will never achieve. It is filled with some incredible performances and the first appearance of the Fugees in almost ten years. If Lauren Hill's performance doesn't move you then you must be a robot because that women is a goddess. I think Block Party will be looked back upon and be remembered as one of the greatest moments for music in the new millennium. This will go down in the books as one of the greatest Music documentary's of all time right alongside Woodstock. It is also fun to watch Dave continue his racial commentary on today's society. I loved Block Party and will recommend this movie to everyone I know.

I'm going to start off by saying I expect more from the usually hilarious Dave Chappelle. This movie was not funny at all. As it goes on it get extremely boring and there were some outright racist comments made about white people and comments that would be viewed as racist against black people if they weren't said by black people. Now I know Chappelle has had a lot of racism on his Comedy Central Chappelle show but this racism had a different feel to it. It was mean and one sided. I thought the movie had a particular political overtone to it that I did not appreciate at all. I thought I was going to see a comedy. What looks like a comedy in the previews is nothing more than a complete waste of time and the $8 ticket price.

Wretched, Unfunny, Unentertaining, Self indulgent wandering crap. Chapelle must feel guilty about his mainly white audience because he worked hard on making this presentation relatively inaccessible to them. THere is a lot of wandering dull dialog about nothing with various non-interesting rap people. A joke might happen once every 20 min and I don't think there's a single entire song on the whole damn thing. This is unfocused and self indulgent and not even the slightest bit interesting, funny or entertaining or watchable. BTW- I LOVE CHAPELLE SHOW- BUT THIS IS TOTAL JUNK. IF this video made Dave quit after he watched it- THAT WOULD MAKE SENSE. He has now joined OJ Simpson scouring the golf courses of America to search for the real killer.

Some have said that Michel Gondry directed this documentary (this is not a movie) like their grandfather would have done with a mini-DV camera. Well, man, I'd like to meet your grandfather. For those of you who don't know "When We Were Kings", it's time to watch it. Because both this documentaries are about the same thing. Of course I wouldn't say Block Party is as good, nor as powerful as when we were kings. But the purpose is the same: try to unite black people on one event, try to make them realise that even when you're black and coming from a poor neighbourhood, you can do something of your life without only blaming the white man for your condition. Of course, at the time When We Were Kings was shot, Mobutu was Zaire's Dictator, and the movie was financed by Liberian producers, who mostly owned their money from selling diamonds coming from Sierra Leone, exchanged against AK-47's and other weapons. Therefore the omnipotent contradiction hidden behind the Black condition, and even mankind in general, but it has hurt black people much more: people trying to do good, and others getting money out of it with no rules or respect for anything or anyone. So, for once, here in Block Party, it's something done for fun, not for money, but also for ideas, with representatives of this movement we don't see enough: Not only people AGAINST something or someone, but FOR a change, using the power that is present in this population. And Michel Gondry, who is a GREAT director, filmed this in the same way When We Were Kings was shot. Camera in hand, close-ups, rough cuts, interviews over the music, same kind of music, same kind of people. Showing the poverty, and showing there's hope. It's not a masterpiece to me, but a good documentary. And of course, if you don't like hip-hop it's hard to like it. I'm a huge fan of ALL the artist on this movie, I would have made exactly the same programmation if I had been in control!

What a bad movie. I went to this movie with like 15 other people in my class and within 20 minutes everybody but 2 people left. One of them fell asleep and the other guy thought there may be something funny in it. There is no chance i will even watch this movie even if it comes on t.v. I really would like to know why anybody would see this movie, this guy may be funny but in the movie all he does is walk around asking people if they want to go see the movie. I would tell most people who are reading this before going to the movie not to go. If you still really want to see this do so. But don't blame me when you come back annoyed that you wasted maybe like 5$ going to it.

I rented this movie thinking... "Great... Dave Chappelle... he's funny..." Then I watch it... nothing but rap! WTF... Worst movie ever made There were a FEW funny parts in the movie, but for the most part it was just a big rap concert.... all of the rappers sounded the same, same basic messages about smoke some weed yadda yadda No wonder blockbuster only had 2 copies of this movie... Amazing how this movie is getting 7.5/10 stars on IMDb, and from what I recall it was getting great reviews at the movie theaters... but I sure am glad I didn't waste 10 bux to see this... as it is I'm a bit upset I wasted 4 bux to rent it... Unless you want to listen to a movie that's 95% rap, with 5% of lame comedy mixed in... stay far far away

Seeing this picture after a Hard night of partying, I had few expectations. But the laughs I had at the beginning of the movie set the tone for the rest of the picture. I just recently became a Chappelle fan, having only heard his comedy on Satellite radio. But I thought this movie was a nice blend of street and situational comedy, and I couldn't take my eyes off the circa. 1972 afro that Quest was sporting. It was poetry in motion. I was not very knowledgeable about a few of the groups in the movie but I thought the concert scenes were great, and was in awe of the sheer musical ability of the featured groups; so much so, that I stopped and picked up a Jill Scott CD for my ride home. You will laugh at the comedy scenes but this movie is not really about making you laugh. It seems to be a cross-cultural primer using comedy, music and just general conversation, to give all of us a small look into each other's world.

This movie was horrible. It was just a bunch of high people that didn't make sense. The best part was when Dave played the bongos and was looking for a Mex-I-Can. Other than that it was just stupid. It was just utterly pathetic. I thought i should have gotten paid to watch this movie because it was merely time I will never get back and i hate you for it Dave Chapelle I hate you! I think it was vulgar and a poor direction job even though it was a documentary. I think I will get my fathers gun and shoot this DVD until i feel better. I will then proceed to poop in the broken DVD until i don't have to poop anymore. I'm now done.

For someone like me who didn't watch much of Dave Chappelle or who isn't big into the hip-hop music, I was actually pleased with this. Maybe it's with the help of Michel Gondry, who I read/seen on TV say that he wanted to humanize the whole experience, both of the artists and the audience. That he did as I was completely moved and knew if I had been there, I would've felt the spiritual connection with the audience that I'm sure those there felt. I think it was definitely worth the near 10 bucks. A fair amount of good rap/hip-hop music (dude, I was even bobbing my head), a fair amount of interviews, a fair amount of comedy, and a fair amount of social commentary. This movie provides a face for the reason why hip-hop is relevant to our culture. And, I seriously give mad props to Dave for getting GOOD rap acts for his party. Ultimately, I think it's actually better going in not knowing what to expect from it as well.
