Steineded How sad is this?
Stevecorp Don't listen to the negative reviews
Bumpy Chip It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
swinggold Kevin Hart is poised to become the next big comedy star walking the trail once blazed by Bill Cosby, Richard Pryor, Eddie Murphy and Chris Rock. He first made noticeable appearances on TV series, many of the spoof movies like Scary Movie 3 & 4, Epic Movie, Extreme Movie and other small movie roles, especially his most famous in a small hilarious piece in The 40 year Old Virgin where he plays a dissatisfied customer. He starred in his first movie as a lead, Soul Plane in (2004). Most recently he had a small cameo in Seth Rogen's This is the End. The fact that he was included in that movie which also featured other small uncredited cameos by a host of A-list actors, shows Hart is considered among the elite comic actors in Hollywood.Unlike a lot of other comedians, Hart's style uses more imagination than observation. He sees things differently than other comedians and employs a very self-deprecating humor that other urban comedians would be too self-conscious to use. Especially other black comedians. He doesn't have to spend five minutes on race or excessive sex jokes to make his point. Though he does sometimes use the N-word, he doesn't use it as a crutch. One of his usual devices is his size. Hart is reportedly only 5'2". He also derives a lot of his humor from his experiences as a father with two young kids. All of these things makes him a comedian with broader appeal than the rest of his peers."Let Me Explain" is his fourth stand-up movie and fifth solo stand-up appearance if you include his "Comedy Central Presents" (2004) stand-up routine. After a filmed opening routine, Hart comes to the stage in Madison Square Garden for his first time. This shows he really has made a large impact in his field as the packed-house audience is filled with a large cross-section of people including celebrities in the front rows. Here he proceeds to talk about everything from his kids, bodyguards, homeless people, divorce, horse rides, etc.Though not as funny as some of his earlier stand-ups, I still found it hilarious. Hart has the ability to bring you into his world, where other comedians simply make observations on everyday things. The prologue and epilogue bits also show Hart's ability as a comic actor and the love he gets from people in other cities and countries.
Leelea Kevin Hart's new film, Let Me Explain was disappointing or shall I say, 'Seriously Not as Funny' as his previous shows. Half of the film showed his fans from around the world giving him praise and a not so funny skit with his friends, while the other half of the film was dedicated to his comedy routine. So out of 75 minutes of film time, 35 minutes was spent on jokes that were mediocre and overacted. He spent too much time on jokes that weren't funny, he went overboard with his exaggerated facial and body expression, and he lingered too long on jokes with weak punch lines. He is normally great when he is self- deprecating, but this time around it was more about his success, which isn't a bad thing, it just isn't funny or what fans would be accustom to. My advice, save your money and wait for this one on DVD or Netflix.
jarretth517 Kevin Hart, once again, proved to the world, why he the hardest working man in comedy. This movie was his best one yet. I laughed so hard to where it was painful. The jokes were on point, the reaction time was perfect, and he put in a new wrinkle to his comedy by bouncing around the way he did. I would have given this a 10 if it wasn't for the length... I, like a lot of other Kevin Hart fans, wanted more comedy, and a little less theatrics. The opening sequence was definitely made for his intro into MSG, and the documentary part of him traveling Europe was great as well, but it didn't feel as if I watched an entire Kevin Hart stand-up like with "I'm A Grown Little Man," or "Seriously Funny." But the laughs I did get were needed, and very good. "Let Me Explain" is, hands-down, his best work to date, and I CAN NOT WAIT to see the next one. I just hope to get more Kevin, and less skit (if that makes any since) the next time. PLEASE GO SEE THIS MOVIE!
dangerousdivot I felt ripped off when comedian Kevin Hart said "thank you and good night" and abruptly ended his routine. I should have waited for this to show up on cable or the bootleg (just kidding about the bootleg). I paid money for a 75-minute stand-up comedy movie whose first 25 minutes feature no stand-up comedy whatsoever. Minus credits, that's ~45 minutes of jokes, several of which are only mildly funny, not his normally funny. The film opens with an unfunny party scene Hart shows clip after clip of his tours from around the world. Not ONE of these clips features Hart telling a single joke. Instead, it's him saying "thank you (fill in the location)" and just more clips of fans and Hart's entourage sleeping on a bus. It goes on so long that I almost walked out. I didn't need a Kevin Hart commercial to prove he was a big funny star. I knew this that's why I bought tickets to see his stand-up. I think Kevin Hart is hilarious; this just wasn't his best material. Hart used the N-word way too much for my taste, but that's the price you pay for a lot of black comedy. I guess they feel that appeals to their mostly urban crowd / audience.
