Kevin Hart: Irresponsible

I like Kevin Hart and I really want to love this show. But compare this to Dave Chapelle's shows and dare I say Louie CK's. This is not as funny as I first saw 'laugh at my pain'. It has good moments though. So a big meh~

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.

I loved every second, hilarious. I loved the jokes (more than other of his Netflix's special).

....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.

I'm a big stand up fan. I like some things about Kevin Hart's personality, I loved his book. I like him in some TV interviews when he's calm and collected. He can talk smart, be witty.

That's when he's funny.

This special is not of of these occasions. It's the Hart that's screaming at a low pitch, sweating, yelling, doing too much. Telling us how every story he tells is a "real story".

Sorry, Kev. I'm a fan of your grind, but seeing you do this... It's really painful to watch.
