Ehirerapp Waste of time
Micitype Pretty Good
XoWizIama Excellent adaptation.
Jonah Abbott There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
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.
diac228 Kevin Hart's Let Me Explain is an interesting conundrum.On one hand you have another great hour of comedy from one of the better stand-up comics in the business today.But on the other hand we have a muddled production with choppy editing, sloppy directing, and poor sound mixing that prevents this comedic movie from aging with the greats like Raw, Live on the Sunset Strip, and Himself.What also hurts Let Me Explain is the short running time, the extremely egotistical preshow, and the failed skit in the beginning of the entire thing. If Hart can simply manage to stretch his material a little longer and delete all the extra fluff then he would be a little closer of reaching the comedic Rushmore of Pryor, 80s Murphy, Rock, and my main man George Carlin. He still has a ways to go though.If you are a Kevin Hart fan, then you will not be disappointed. He once again spits out quick funny anecdotes, throws in a couple great catchphrases, and is never afraid of making fun of himself. He once again dedicates plenty of time to talking about women and relationship clichés; and these moments provide the biggest laughs because he takes the moments we can all relate to and stretch them into exaggeratory measures to successful jokes. He also has this likability factor that allows for him to control the crowd and never lose them, not for a single second.And then we have all the technical issues. First off for a Madison Square Garden the audience was quite quiet. Was it the jokes not hitting? No, it's that the sound editing focused pretty much 95% on Hart, leaving the movie sounding quieter than it should. Part of a good comedic concert is listening to the audience react to the stories and collectively understand the verbal motions of one individual. Remember the epic battles Richard Pryor had against his audience on Sunset Strip? With this production staff we never would have truly enjoyed it.As a matter of fact, it was tough to enjoy anything in the first fifteen minutes. The opening skit was uneven, just like the last one in Laugh at my Pain. And then it was followed by a sequence that should have been kept for the closing credits. The movie needed 20 minutes to truly get going. Jerry Seinfeld once said that usually comedians have only one minute to catch the audience otherwise he/she fails. The only reason why Kevin Hart was allowed 20 is because his material over the years has been consistently funny, and we all secretly knew that no matter how lame the material with his buddies are, it would all be forgiven once he steps up on the mic...even if the first act drags miserably.But Kevin seriously, drop your friends. They may have supported you, but that doesn't mean squat if it hinders your movies.
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!
