He was voted in the US as the 5th greatest stand-up comedian of all time by Comedy Central. He was also voted in the UK as the 9th greatest stand-up comic on Channel 4's 100 Greatest Stand-Ups in 2007, and again in the updated 2010 list as the 8th greatest stand-up comic. He is known for his roles in Dogma, Beverly Hills Ninja, Lethal Weapon 4, Nurse Betty, The Longest Yard, Bad Company, and a starring role in Down to Earth. Rock has also increasingly worked behind the camera, as a writer and director (and starring actor) of Head of State and I Think I Love My Wife. In the fall of 2005, the UPN television network premiered a comedy series called Everybody Hates Chris, based on Rock's school days, of which he is the executive producer and narrator. The show garnered both critical and ratings success. The series was nominated for a 2006 Golden Globe for Best TV Series (Musical or Comedy), a 2006 People's Choice Award for Favorite New Television Comedy, and two 2006 Emmy Awards for costuming and cinematography. Following the release of his first documentary, 2009's Good Hair, Rock is working on a documentary about debt called Credit is the Devil. In 2010 he starred alongside Adam Sandler in Grown-ups and with fellow comedian/actor Martin Lawrence in the remake of the British film Death at a Funeral.

When Krypton’s computer tyrant Brainiac arrives on Earth seeking the Eradicator—a shape-shifting Kryptonian AI—he blocks out the sun, weakening Superman and enabling Lex Luthor to orchestrate the Man of Steel’s apparent death at the hands of the monster Doomsday. While Metropolis falls under Brainiac’s control and Lois Lane exposes Luthor’s lies, a resurrected Superman dons a black recovery suit and, with the self-sacrificing Eradicator’s help, destroys the sun-blocking ShadowCaster, defeats Brainiac, and exposes Luthor’s conspiracy, restoring his powers and reaffirming his love for Lois.
