Usually comedians are called on to make us laugh. Perhaps precisely because of this expectation when we get a comedian in a dark role it can be particularly effective. This week on CinemaJaw in honor of the new film from the saw franchise that we are reviewing this week, Spiral, starring Chris Rock, we take a look at our Top 5 Comedians in Dark Roles.
Joining us is our good friend, fellow CIC critic, and a growing movie YouTuber – Emannuel “E-man” Noisette.
E-man has been writing movie reviews since 2012, and is the author and creator of EmansMovieReviews.com. Right now his YouTube channel is on the upward track! He seeks to be somewhat of an unconventional film critic. His unique style takes on the approach of making his reviews brief, concise, and spoiler-free. His mission is to help average moviegoers spend or save both their time and money with any given movie.
