Davey From the Block
Though the festivities can get distractingly self-congratulatory on screen, it's hard to begrudge Chappelle the success of what he calls the greatest day of his career.

A Hip-Hop Happeningnew
Although the film hasn't the distinctive fingerprints of Eternal Sunshine director Michel Gondry, Chappelle's party is nevertheless a fun blast of impromptu musicmaking, filmmaking, and comedy.

Perhaps only one man could pull off a movie as well-meaningly extraneous as Dave Chappelle's Block Party.

Chappelle's Returnnew
Perhaps because he's not spouting scripted material in a studio, Chapelle's delivery is much more subdued than audiences would expect from the usually madcap jokester in this documentary.

Monkeyshines for Soul Powernew
This provocateur documentary is a wonderful showcase for Chappelle's ability to be bitingly funny, but still personable, while remaining free of the perfunctory conceits of sketch writers.

You Might Think I'm Crazynew
A good deal of the fun in this documentary, as we follow Chappelle from his Ohio retreat to Brooklyn, is to see how fully he's got his wits about him.
