Hart has star power and likability, both of which do wonders to pave over the weaker portions of his set and elevate the stronger portions of his material into comedy gold. Go to Full Review

Kevin Hart: What Now? Is a solid release from a very consistent performer that doesn't sway too far from what got him where he is now. You feel the energy on screen and in his stage presence as usual. Go to Full Review

Comes down to how much of Hart you can handle in one sitting. If you are a fan of his work, then this will be perfectly fine. If not, I don't think "What Now?" has enough to win you over. Go to Full Review

12/16/2021 Kinda over the Kevin Hart effect. See more 07/10/2021 Good shit. Had some good laughs. Recommendable. See more 06/24/2021 Not funny at all. He wasted 20 minutes talking about a raccoon, only make fun of the fingers and another 20min talking about his son running to the trash bin… it's boring See more 08/29/2020 I enjoy Kevin Hart's comedy and really admire this feat of a record-breaking show, but I think in general this special is lacking. The set seems underworked and sparse. The editing of the footage was distracting. I liked seeing the crowd interacting with him, but so many pointless shots of the crowd inevitably shows people not even laughing. I did laugh, but not as much as in his previous specials. I also didn't get the point of the James Bond intro/outro. It only shows Hart's weaknesses. It may be on a grand scale, but it is certainly not his best performance. See more 01/07/2020 This was very good. See more les n 03/21/2019 Wow. A racoon grabbing its Johnson. If you don't find that funny then the entire video will be a disappointment. Considering the quality of to the comedians at the moment, Kevin Hart is as funny as a fart in an elevator. See more Read all reviews
