Top Five
Pulsing with the rhythm of his greatest stend-up, Chris Rock's TOP FIVE takes things to the next leve;, reveling in the high and the low, and blending a star-studded comedic romp with an irresistable reomance. TOP FIVE gigs under the surface of show business, politics, rap, and the exigencies of being black and famous today – holding it all up to the light in the way only Chris Rock can. Mingling echoes of Woody Allen and Dick Gregory with the energy of Kanye West and Jay Z, TOP FIVE is an original and radically new kind of American Movie.
Critic Reviews:
- " Rock and Dawson spark in long, uncut scenes of dialogue that echo Before Midnight. Flirting and sparring throughout the film, they are at the heart of the story but Rock has populated the movie with other interesting characters and cameos. " – Richard Crouse
- " Top Five…finally gives Rock the filmic vehicle he has needed since he tried to transition to the screen. " – David Harris
- " Big laughs and believable vulnerability. But it also has aged faster than Indiana Jones Nazis unable to spot the cup of a carpenter and relies on truly retrograde eye-rolling plot turns about reporters' motives. " – Nick Rogers
