There ya go.. this film in a nutshell. There's NOTHING original here. It's all terribly predictable without any surprises whatsoever.

That being written, it's not "terrible" - it's just VERY run-of-the-mill. NO ONE is stepping outside any comfort zones here - not the actors, not the writer/director.... no one. I, personally, found no laughter here - I saw the attempts, but all the jokes fell completely flat for me. Watch with the family.. teenagers or "tweens" MIGHT like it more - merely because they may not be aware of some of the 'the world doesn't work like that' aspects. But it's just sugar-coated standard schlock from Netflix's "family comedy" sweatshop.

First of all, I love Mark Wahlberg and Kevin Hart and have watched almost every movie of them. The trailer was quite promising and i expected a comedy, even if it was clear that the genre would not be defined new.

Unfortunately, this movie failed to be funny with it's jokes being questionable. Too many pointless jokes with guys displaying too much childish behavior. I know that's what the producers intended to do but i'm wondering who's enjoying such deviate storytelling? In conclusion, it was the first and the last time that I was watching this movie. Well done, one more movie that very likely no one will remember as it goes down in the archive of forgotten movies.

Something I've noticed with writer/director John Hamburg is that he either writes extremely funny comedies, or comedies that won't make you laugh once. 'Me Time' is unfortunately the latter. This movie was not funny in the least bit.

The problem with Kevin Hart, and the reason I almost never enjoy his movies, is that they're based around energy rather than clever writing. He does bring energy to a movie but that doesn't do it for me. I need some intelligence in the script. Hart is more likely to try and find comedy in slipping on something on the floor, than making a clever observation or witty retort.

Mark Wahlberg can be great in comedies but he needs to be playing off someone who is truly funny. When he's in the 'Ted' movies opposite Seth MacFarlane or opposite Will Ferrell in something like 'The Other Guys' he can play the straight guy and make the other guy even funnier. When the other guy isn't funny like Hart however, Wahlberg's performance comes across very flat as it does in 'Me Time'.

If we learnt anything from 'Scary Movie' and the 2022 Oscars it is that Regina Hall is probably the most talented comic this film has. And yet they don't give her anything to work with. Not once is she given an opportunity to be funny. She is just there to be the run of the mill wife who ticks every cliche in the book. It was very disappointing to see that.

I could go on and on and about the reasons this movie was terrible but I don't think it is worth my energy. I didn't enjoy this one at all. 3/10.

Me Time is a comedy starring Kevin Hart and Mark Wahlberg as long time buddies who reunite after a few years of not seeing each other to have another adventure together celebrating Hart's character birthday. Wahlberg plays Huck while Hart plays Sonny. Sonny gets depressed knowing that he's a Mr. Mom, stay at home dad, while his wife, played by Regina Hall, is an up and coming architect. As a result, Sonny gets depressed that all he is a super dad who directs school talent shows. This is where Huck comes in, and Huck being the crazy, wild child, they automatically get into trouble and adventure that results in Sonny and Huck destroying things and saving one another from a loan shark.

Overall, I liked it. It had a few funny moments. Wahlberg and Hart worked really well together despite being an odd pairing for a comedy but both guys are pretty good actors. Wahlberg is a very good, underappreciated, actor that can do anything. Hart himself is a good actor as well and very likeable in every film that I've seen him in.

The negative part and this is where my headline comes in. Hart is entering that dangerous Adam Sandler route of lazy movie making with a very glossy comedy, a lot of sex jokes, a celebrity appearance, over the top storyline, zany antics but no real story or heart to their film. Me Time felt like an Adam Sandler film from I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry and every film after that. Just a lazy film. And this one was too lazy and zany like a Sandler film and Hart shouldn't be doing these types of films just yet as he is still in his prime as an actor.

Overall, Me Time is a fun flick but won't be a memorable film. Just something to watch and enjoy on a boring day. Also, you just hope Kevin Hart doesn't steer too close to these types of films for awhile.

It was suppose to be a comedy movie and when i saw the main cast i was really into it.

Mark and Kevin has some great comedy movies. How bad this could go wrong... well it went horribly.

Jokes were so bad and predictable that even Kevin Hart couldnt execute in a fun way and Mark was complete like a guest star.

I hope they can meet in a better project with a better story that we can have fun and good time.

It is one of these movies that the trailer is better than the whole movie. Netflix really needs to change the movies department. They have only couple of good series and thats all.

I cant say anything for the rest of the characters. Because they were so cliche. Writers tried to make them funny as well and ended up being annoying. Uber driver to get help, really.
