Yes, if you are a Kevin Hart fan there will be plenty of gut-busters built up throughout the course of his show, but they were too far apart in my opinion. That being said, I have seen him much funnier than this in the past, which let me wanting so much more when the credits rolled. Kevin Hart seemed to give his heart and soul to making people laugh here, and it seems like he has no greater joy in life than to bring joy to others. There are quite a few lulls throughout his performance and some of the same jokes are repeated, but it was still very funny overall.
There were quite a few off-the-wall third wall jokes being thrown out to viewers, building up this show, only to have them hysterically laugh a few times throughout. The issue with the story this film displayed when leading up to the big show, was the fact that it was funnier than the show itself. Combining a road-trip style thriller through the streets with a roadie of the band, while the music they were playing helped move the story along was complete escapism. The best use of story built around a show in order to add a cinematic experience was with a concert film called Metallica: Through the Never. Does it work as a feature length film or should it have just stayed as his stand-up show? At its core, this film was about bringing people together to make them laugh. Kevin Hart: What Now? plays out as a narrative story of how Kevin Hart arrived at his sold out show and how it made its audience members feel. I know that is a "tall" order, but it is not impossible. He has potential of becoming the next Eddie Murphy or the next Chris Rock. Kevin Hart, for me at least, almost stands up on that same pedestal. Films like Eddie Murphy's Delirious was so well received, due to its non-stop laugher from the very talented comedian. When it comes to feature films based around stand-up shows from famous comedians, sometimes it begs the question of whether or not the show was great enough to begin with. If you like him, you'll probably enjoy it.
#KEVIN HART TOUR READING PA MOVIE#
If you don't like Kevin Hart, this movie won't sway your opinion. I don't like Kevin Hart in movies usually because he's always the spunky comic relief, but his stand-up is his strength, and it shows.
His energy may seem over-the-top, but that's just his thing. My favorite moment was probably when Kevin was talking about watching The Conjuring (a horror movie I love). The stand-up routine itself had some very strong moments, even though it started off poorly with a story about a raccoon. Don Cheadle and Halle Barry play fictional versions of themselves to hilarious results. The film opens up with a pre-concert skit (some comedians do this often), and it was probably my favorite part of the movie. I've never seen something like this on such a big scale, but Kevin Hart is the king of comedy these days, so it doesn't surprise me that we're seeing this spectacle.
