he's great at standup, though he relies way too heavily on racist jokes.

He is funny, of course his humor sometimes comes at the cost of a racial joke and some elses feelings.

That's what I was going to point out... his stand up is awesome and his movies are just so-so. :)

His stand-up and HBO show were hilarious (check out Best of the Chris Rock Show vol. 2). The movies are hit-and-miss...I liked Down to Earth, and I'll probably go see Head of State

His stand up is great, and the only movies I've seen him in are Dogma and JSBSB, so I haven't really seen him try and lead a movie. But overall, my answer is a hearty hell yes.

Carson:What would a fragrance by P. Diddy smell like?
CR: a courtroom!
Carson:and J-Lo?
CR: ass!


Carson: You are the new president and at the inauguration (sp again?)...who do you get to sing the national anthem?
CR: 50 cent, because then I don't have to worry about getting shot!
