The Original Kings of Comedy is only one of the two movies that stayed put this week. 

It is not the director's cut of Martin Scorsese's 1983 film starring Robert DeNiro and Jerry Lewis. 

The movie presents a behind-the-scenes look at the four stand-up comedians on the long-running "Kings of Comedy" tour. Furthermore it has not been given any rating yet. 

The cast includes DL Hughley, Steve Harvey, Cedric the Entertainer and Bernie Mac. 

The movie was directed by Spike Lee, produced by Walter Latham and David Gale and released by Paramount

Slowly but surely, this movie, that debuted at number 2 only 4 weeks ago, is falling down the list. This week, the movie grossed $2,500,000, giving it a total of 32,000,000

Filmed at a live sold-out show in Charlotte, North Carolina, this documentary is raw, funny, filthy and in your face.
