Kevin Hart: Irresponsible

I was immediately bewildered at the size of the audience. THAT MANY people buy tickets and show up to a ONE HOUR COMEDY performance? Okay, maybe the tickets were cheap, but there are crowds, traffic, babysitters, etc etc, to deal with. People must be starved for entertainment. I don't know if I'd even go through all that for the second coming of Jesus. I'd probably just wait to see it on NetFlix. Kevin didn't seem too bewildered by, or even appreciative of, the size of the crowd. He complained that the cheering wasn't loud enough...okay, okay maybe it was a joke, but I guess he's used to massive crowds. I'm not too crazy about the gratuitous vulgarity. Eddie Murphy, Dave Chappelle, Pryor, and Sam Kinison use(d) vulgarities. but they used them to embellish their jokes, they weren't used as a crutch. I came across this because I was searching for stand-up, and I like a good laugh once in a while. This wasn't very funny imo. I shut it off half-way through and then checked out Kevin's "Laugh At My Pain" show, which is funnier, but not by much. I think I'm being generous in giving it a 5 rating because maybe it's just me.

I watched the trailer for this Netflix special and thought it was going to be the same old thing and I wouldn't enjoy it but it was actually good, the material was new and it all came together nicely in the end.

It seems that sexual jokes are somehow more common in such shows. This show was also quite a lot. He tells the stories well, but I can't say I laughed a lot. But if I say unsuccessful, I would have lost the right.

Don't like how he did it for the camera while everyone paid to be there. Funny when he paid no attention to the camera (Netflix paid). Now he has the same moves doing high voice and high crying sounds (OKAY, EHHH,OKAY)

....le sigh.... Disappointing. It had its funny moments. But overall, I felt like he was trying too hard. Kevin's first two comedy specials were the funnies things I'd seen in a long time. And then something changed. His writing, delivery, appreciation, approach....something changed! I remember 80% of the jokes from Seriously Funny and Laugh At My Pain. I know one joke from What Now. And this show...I'll remember bits and pieces of the genius baby situation. It was funny. But not gut busting killing over funny. I feel like the crowd was more laughing because it's Kevin Hart...more so than because the material was really funny. He's a great actor for the roles (SAME DAMN ROLE) he plays. Being that they are all the same. But his comedy has fallen off. The jokes about his family and addressing his public infidelities felt more...more cringe worthy than comedy. I wouldn't watch it again.
