Synopsis
Top Five (2014) is a comedy-drama you can watch online on iFILM, written and directed by Chris Rock. Rock stars as Andre Allen, a comic who got rich playing a talking bear in a hit action trilogy and now aches to be taken seriously.
Newly sober, Andre has just made a passion project about the Haitian Revolution that the critics tore apart. He's days away from marrying a reality-TV star (Gabrielle Union) when he agrees to spend an afternoon with Chelsea Brown (Rosario Dawson), a New York Times profile writer. They walk the city, trade barbs, and the conversation slowly pulls him back toward stand-up and toward an honest look at his own life.
Rock packs the film with cameos: Kevin Hart, Tracy Morgan, Cedric the Entertainer, Adam Sandler, Whoopi Goldberg and Jerry Seinfeld all turn up. The result is a sharp, talky comedy about fame, sobriety and what real laughter costs, ideal for anyone who likes their humor with bite. Stream Top Five (2014) online on iFILM.
