I'm glad that this is Kevin Hart's last stand-up.. because it was downright awful. He uses the same formula as his last 4 stand ups. Stories about his family, relationships, and lots of screaming. It's more similar in style than Infinity Warfare is to Black Ops 3. But that's not even why it's bad..
The jokes just weren't funny. Toilet humor, some sex toy jokes, and other cringey jokes. Some of the jokes that were decent was so drawn out that it became very awkward. Even the faces from the fans looked like they were trying hard just to chuckle at his jokes. Literally his last joke at the end was the only one that made me laugh.
I really didn't want to be believe the prior reviews, but this stand-up is hands down his worse and I think a 3/10 is a very accurate rating considering he is one of the the best selling comedians of the decade.
Just to let you know, I am still a Kevin Hart fan. I've watched his last 4 stand-ups at least 3 times each. But this did not even come close to expectations. I would not pay $5 or $10 for this. I would watch it online for free. If you are looking for something funny and new I would watch Chris Tucker's "Live" on Netflix. It has authentic humor and only gets better each time you watch it. (I'm actually re-watching it right now as I write this) I also logged in just to write this review. My first log-in in 5 years. (Surprised I still knew my password)

I like Harts energy always have. Best stick to movies and "Real husbands of Hollywood" This was just awful.Took me 3 days to get through it.Feel Really bad for the suckers that paid money live.Nothing made me laugh,not even a smile.Just awful, he is laughing all the way to the bank.
A lot of times I read reviews off of IMDb and almost miss out on good movies because of the bad reviews I've read. That's why I say make your own assumptions. Personally, I laughed hard on Kevin Hart's "What Now" movie. I watched it with my wife and two of my buddies. If you have one of those nights of hanging out, having a couple drinks and want to laugh...then put on this movie. Yeah, he did it different and the first few minutes it's like a movie but even that part was pretty funny.
His stories about being scared, his kids, his dad and so on had me in tears a couple of times.
People today are real uptight and sensitive babies. If you go into this just wanting to laugh then you'll enjoy yourself.
That's all I'll say about that.

This stand up special is not very good. I think it probably is just as simple as Kevin Hart having done too much stuff too quickly and too recently.
I have liked his stuff in the past including his stand up comedy appearances and also his early movie roles. But his more recent stuff including starring movie roles in lesser quality movies and especially his stand up comedy are just not up to the same quality I'm used to seeing from him.
I hope he takes some time off to write and develop some stronger stuff instead of just churning stuff out this quickly in the future, to bring the quality up.

Kevin Hart: What Now is a really funny comedy special that's padded to feature length by some unwanted scripted sketches which bookend it. Halle Berry is always a welcome presence who exudes grace effortlessly and Don Cheadle is having fun but these scenes are undoubtedly filler. However, there's still a few good jokes in these bits thanks to a scene parodying The Equalizer and a neat gag involving subtitles.
The special itself is actually more than funny enough to sustain its run time. The material can get surprisingly personal when he talks about his greatest shame surrounding his sex life and the best moments come from the stories that sound unreal. He returns to some of his biggest punchlines a bit too much in this one but those bits work more often than they don't and the backdrops changing to match his jokes works with them.
