[edit] Synopsis
The controversial bad-boy of comedy delivers a piercing look at his life, lifting the metaphorical smokescreen that he feels has clouded the public view, commenting on everything from the dangers of smoking to the trials of relationships, and unleashing a nonstop litany of raucous anecdotes, stinging social commentary and very personal reflections about life. Lawrence drew many comparisons to comic great Richard Pryor with this performance though many critics said he failed to reach the pinnacle that Pryor did.
