What you may need to know:
1. Andre Allen is a comedian trying to reinvent himself after a series of really bad big budget comedies. Chris Rock is the triple threat of writer, director and star.
2. After Grown Ups (2010), What to Expect When You’re Expecting (2012), Grown Ups 2 (2013) and a helluva lot of voiceover work, you’d wonder where Rock drew inspiration from.
3. The trailer doesn’t spell it out, but Rock and Rosario Dawson’s character will probably hook up at the end of the movie.
4. “Hammy the Bear” looks like something I’d probably watch.
5. This was shot last summer, before Tracy Morgan’s car crash. He’s still recovering.
6. Rock and Jerry Seinfeld getting pulled by the cops for speeding is only hilarious.
7. Broadsheet Prognosis: Art imitates life.
Release Date: January 16, 2015

The June Winters Christmas Show?
I’d rather just be told that he’d died :'(
RIP Chris Rock, in life your wonderful wise ass brand of stand up comedy lead us to so many lame ass movies. My thoughts and prayers are with the audiences families at this most tragic time.
Can we take a second to talk about what is still the greatest election film of the noughties?
