Kevin Hart: Don't F**k This Up

This was a very entertaining take on the inside life of an upcoming superstar. I like how it showed his vulnerabilities more than his strengths. The doc was actually about how all the hardwork and ethics can vanish with a single tweet from a person at that position. Also after reading some of the nasty reviews here, I have to say that forgiveness is a rare quality these days. It was an entertaining documentary, Kevin is a very positive personality that we could all use at this crazy time.

In the end, it's six episodes of Kevin Hart defending himself and others explaining how hard he works, how successful he is, etc. It came off as more of a PR puff piece than a documentary examining the comedian's missteps.

This "documentary" feels like it's a PR stunt. Trying to fix the historical tweets which appears to have affected his personal and business profile. Doing the doc seems like it's trying to iron out the crease so he can get back onto the billionaire journey. I will continue to be a fan of his artistry but I feel like I lost respect for the man. One thing I will say about his tweets, comedians will say things that are funny to many and hurtful to some. That's comedy. One joke can't suit everyone. I laugh at a lot of his jokes but not all of them. I wish him well and I'm thankful he's fully recovered after his car accident. Hollywood needs this kind of comedian, just not the documentary maker.

Even if you're not a Kevin Hart fan, this is an interesting view into a fascinating life. You won't regret watching it. And don't pay attention to the 1 ratings. They are just from people who can't forgive tweets from a decade ago.

First off, I NEVER WRITE REVIEWS. This is literally my first one.

If you are not a fan of Kevin for whatever reason, why sit through an entire series of his just to review it on the internet. If im not a fan of someone's I just don't support them. People spend so much time trying to bring someone down and for what?

The man made a couple of bad jokes. But they are jokes people. Comedians joke about far worse things like rape and murder. That is their job to find something funny in the bad parts of life. This time the bad part was that as black men, we are raised to be homophobic. It's just the truth. If a boy growing up that was doing something suspect of being gay, they're friends or family would tell them, "stop that that's gay." It's just what happened. Kevin's jokes could have been executed better but like Dave Chapelle said, comedians need that space to sometimes not get it right.

This docuseries might be the best project I've seen from him. I looked up the editor to see what else they have worked on (something I've never done) it was so good. Thoroughly entertaining, funny, and inspiring.

Of course he has an ego. You don't become the biggest comedian the world has ever seen without one. Trying to turn ambition into something negative is immature. Of course the docuseries is self-promoting. Any project is an attempt to promote yourself. Any standup special is self-promoting. But the fact that he left in all of his mishaps makes you respect him.

The purpose was not to continue to apologize, but to be transparent while entertaining. Mission accomplished.
