He wrote, directed, and starred in this latest comedy. The film included a star studded cast filled with many well-known comedians and actors such as Whoopi Goldberg, Adam Sandler, Cedric the Entertainer and Tracy Morgan.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font_9\">Chris Rock plays Andre Allen, a comedian turned actor who finds that he has been typecast in the film industry. He gets to a point where he is fed up with his \u201ccomedic\u201d image so he stars in a more thought-provoking film that isn\u2019t received well by fans or critics. Andre crosses paths with Chelsea Brown, a young reporter played by Rosario Dawson who he agrees to let interview him for\u00a0The New York Times. During the time they spend together they develop a strong connection which causes Andre to reconnect with his comedic roots.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font_9\">Top Five isn\u2019t your typical comedy. Although the movie is humorous, it included many subliminal messages regarding politics, stereotypes, and the double standards regarding race in the film industry.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font_9\">\u00a0Photo Credit: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.blackfilm.com\/read\/2014\/11\/watch-3-clips-to-chris-rocks-top-five\/\">BLACKFILM.COM<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Author: The Double Scoop In\u00a0Top 5, Chris Rock shows that he is a man that can juggle many hats.
