Why We Laugh tracks the evolution of black comedy from the character of Stepin Fetchit and minstrels in blackface to the politically tinged humor of Dick Gregory, and from the television success of Good Times and The Jeffersons to the big-screen accomplishments of stars such as Eddie Murphy and Whoopi Goldberg. The film also turns a perceptive eye on the controversial career decision of Dave Chappelle and the implications of corporate efforts to capitalize on the massive success of Russell Simmons s Def Comedy Jam and Spike Lee s The Original Kings of Comedy. watch

America's funniest family is back for seconds! Eddie Murphy is hilarious, starring as the entire Klump family in this enormous comedy blockbuster. The hilarity begins when professor Sherman Klump finds romance with fellow DNA specialist Denise Gaines (Janet Jackson) and discovers a brilliant formula that reverses aging. But Sherman's thin and obnoxious alter ego, Buddy Love, wants out... and a big piece of the action. And when Buddy gets loose, things get seriously nutty. Now it's up to Mama, Papa, Ernie and Granny Klump to throw their weight around and save the day in this whopping, gut-busting comedy Good Morning America calls an "incredible piece of filmmaking." Roger Ebert and Richard Roeper give Nutty Professor II: The Klumps "two thumbs up." watch
