Romantic comedy that also covers the problems of celebrity
Top Five is part romantic comedy part commentary on Hollywood. The dual themes seemed to confuse a lot of people, and not appeal to many others. I fell in love with it when I first saw it in the theater.<br /><br />The movie featured Chris Rock as Andre Allen who started off as a shooting star comedian who then predictably went into a series of bad comedy movies. The fame and attention eventually got to him, and he became an alcoholic. Now he’s trying to be a new man and chart his own course being a serious actor staring in Uprize, a story about the Haitian Revolution. He was still trapped in his old persona however having to do a live marriage with reality star Erica Long played by Gabrielle Union. Into this mix steps Chelsea Brown (Rosia Dawson) a New York Times reporter who wants to do a one on one interview. Allen is initially standoffish and reluctant, but it turns into the heart of the film as the two take a trip through New York. Along the way, Andre and Chelsea form a relationship but all the trappings of celebrity get in the way.<br /><br />There are a bunch of great cameos throughout the film as well. J.B. Smoove is Andre’s driver and is always trying to pick up on big women. Kevin Hart is Andre’s agent and stops talking to him to go see Ben Stiller. Cedric the Entertainer is a Houston promoter that takes over Andre’s afterparty. Ben Vereen is Andre’s estranged dad. When the two run into each other all Vereen does it make jokes about Andre’s stardom only to turn around and ask for some money. Tracy Morgan, Leslie Jones, Jay Pharoah, and Michael Che are Andre’s old friends from the hood. That leads to where the title of the film comes from when they each name their Top 5 rappers of all time. Towards the end, Andre goes to his bachelor party and talks with Jerry Seinfeld, Whoopi Goldberg, and Adam Sandler about marriage. They warn him not to cheat, stay loyal, and don’t confess to anything. DMX however steals the show when Andre runs into him in jail and he explains how he wants to start a singing career and then belts out a tune.<br /><br />I understand how the two themes could throw people off about what exactly Top Five is about. For me it worked perfectly.<br />C

Here is a brief synopsis of the title : Pulsing with the rhythm of his greatest stand-up, Chris Rock's TOP FIVE takes things to the next level, reveling in the high and the low, and blending a star-studded comedic romp with an irresistible romance. TOP FIVE digs 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. Written, directed by, and starring Chris Rock, TOP FIVE tells the story of New York City comedian-turned-film star Andre Allen, whose unexpected encounter with a journalist (Rosario Dawson) forces him to confront the comedy career--and the past--that he's left behind..
