    Not his best, but some laughs

    Edgy in places, but that's the way he's always been. If you can't handle it, maybe you need to lighten up. Some of it is a tad out of touch, but overall a solid enough set that it's worth checking out as long as you don't have a stick up your butt.

    KEEP'EM LAUGHING...!

    Chris Rock: Tambourine shows the premiere comic return to the limelight after some professional/personal set-backs. Well made, timely & consistently funny, Tambourine is a hilarious, vulgar triumph.

    Hilarious

    It was refreshing to see Chris Rock's return. Not only was the special funny it was thought provoking as well.

    Not the funniest stand-up comedy show but still watchable

    The amount of people rating this show with one star is just ridiculous. Do those people have no sense of humor at all? I'm not saying this was the best stand-up comedy I ever saw, far from that, but it was okay to watch once. I had a couple good laughs and a few minor laughs. Not that it was hilarious but I was entertained, and that's the only thing that matters to me. Calling Chris Rock a racist is just ridiculous. If you can't see the humor of the white and black jokes you must have a pretty pathetic sense of humor, or in some case just no sense of humor at all. You have to take this all at a second degree, just don't pay too much attention to it, because if it's not allowed to laugh with everything anymore just banish stand up comedy for good then.

    Honest

    Strange seeing reviews on this and other Stand-Up specials from the last 2yrs and realizing that some people are just joining IMDB just to give a 1 rating.

    I enjoyed this, having been thru similar, albiet not the kids or courtroom dramas or kids but, the divorce, the mess and dating again. Unless you have been thru it, you won't laugh.

    And since its a specific audience/people that the jokes are aimed at, other viewers are getting offended. Funny that.
