Block Party

For a comeback, Dave Chappelle’s got it right with Block Party. It isn’t a concert film, but features a hefty amount of highlight performances. It also isn’t a stand-up comedy, but Chappelle certainly spouts some smile-turning kickers. And Block Party isn’t a documentary, but we’re left with a sense of culture from the footage of interviews throughout. In truth, Block Party really isn’t much of anything, but it’s enough to mount dizzying entertainment with the flick of Michel Gondry’s hand-held DV camera.

It surrounds the conception, pre-production, production, and post-production of Dave Chappelle’s 2005 Brooklyn Block Party. The word “production” is used loosely here, not to connote images of agents frantically finding the rights to singers and their songs and the construction of the set and all the hoo-hah that goes into a major concert. No. By Pre-Production, I mean Dave Chappelle traveling back to hometown Dayton, Ohio to hand out the golden tickets to his fellow citizens. By Production, I mean watching some excellent musical performances on the corner of Downing and Quincy, in front of the Broken Angel warehouse, to the sound of 5,000 screaming fans. And by Post-Production, I mean watching Chappelle and his fellow performers speculate about the show afterwards.

But for all the linearity described here, Block Party doesn’t have mind for structure. The film doesn’t roll chronologically; instead, Block Party jumps around itself, sometimes going to Ohio, then back to rehearsal, jumping forward to a highlight performance, and then back to Brooklyn at a children’s day care where the kids bounce frantically around Chappelle. Gondry worries less about documenting the actual party, opting instead to find an accessible method for the audience’s entertainment. If the film was said to be trying hard at any one thing, it would be that Block Party really tries to keep from bogging itself down.

Chappelle himself does well to not hog the screen. In fact, if there was any one complaint, it would be that we don’t see Chappelle enough. This is not “Chappelle’s Show”, after all. There are no skits, and only a few planned scenes of comedy. Mostly, we follow Chappelle around with a couple DV cameras and a boom mic as he explores Dayton and Brooklyn, speaking to their inhabitants and hearing their stories. But this isn’t to say that Chappelle avoids humor. We all know Dave Chappelle’s a funny man when he’s not even trying. Believe me, there are many laughs to be had. The style digs down to why we loved Dave Chappelle in the first place. Seeing him walk around his hometown in a state of relative normalcy—without spotlights or producers and writers—offers Block Party a homegrown attitude. The music reflects this, showcasing artists that inhabit the quality of music, instead of the financial returns that go along with it.

And the music’s great, too. Gondry does well not to overdose on it, aware that that the beats may grow tiresome for the anti-rap audience. He only showcases one or two songs at a time, jumping back to another Chappelle experience in between. But whether or not you’re a regular fan of rap (I’m not), Block Party’s music is sure to rouse some sort of reaction. The attitude and community behind the music is what makes it great. The fans and the artists and Chappelle forged a culture at this party, and this culture is infectious. At the theatre, much of the audience started dancing and moving to the music in their seats, some even raising their arms at the musicians’ demand. And at it’s heart, it’s just about everyone—the fans, the artists, the theatre audience, and Chappelle—just having a good time.

I like Dave Chappelle, but I am not a fan of this movie.
In Dave Chappelle’s ‘Block Party’, Dave Chappelle wants to put on a concert in Brooklyn and get folks from his home town in Ohio to partake in the festivities. This free Block Party showcases the talent of Kanye West, Mos Def, Talib Kweli, Common, Dead Prez, Erykah Badu, Jill Scott, the Roots, Cody ChesnuTT, Big Daddy Kane, and – reunited for their first performance in over seven years – the Fugees.

I like Dave Chappelle, but I am not a fan of this movie. Half the movie is footage from the Block Party in Brooklyn and the other half footage of Dave Chappelle talking to ordinary people trying to get them to come to the show. There is a lot of impromptu comedy on the part of Dave Chappelle, but most of the movie is kind of boring.

I hate to admit it, but I walked out of this movie; mostly because I am not a fan of Rap music. I am sure other will appreciate this movie more than I did.
