If you like Kevin hart already then you'll most likely enjoy this as a fan. It's not the funniest or groundbreaking special you'll ever see. Kevin hart is probably the most mainstream comedian there is, he's like the gateway to standup. I don't know a lot of standup fans but out of the few, most started out with Kevin( most of us young ones lol). People who aren't into standup much, just occasional viewers probably only watch Dave Chappell and him on those occasions. He's one of the most mainstream comedians, nothing edgy or anything like that which gives him access to a larger audience making him one of the most successful comedians. If you're one those occasional watchers then you'll enjoy this just fine, if you're a frequent watcher of different standups then this won't be the most groundbreaking show you'll see; just your typical Kevin hart, still got a few giggles here and there. It got better the more it went on and he closed on a high. I didn't know he even had a new special out, I guess peacock doesn't advertise as much as Netflix or hbo. The special is still funny enough and if you enjoy your usual Kevin hart jokes, here's more of the same.

People need to relax. The show was pretty funny.

I'm not even the biggest Kevin Hart fan. I'm happy for him, I support his projects, but he hasn't really been the funniest comedian in the world. Having said that- this was probably his best show so far. The timing of the jokes, the material was fun. I think people need to relax, and stop taking comedy so seriously lol. The only question that should be asked was, did I laugh. I laughed more consistently through this routine than I have at stuff in the past. I'm not gonna critique whether he was 'safe' or not. I don't have a checklist to determine if he covered all of the mandatory subject matter we expect. It was just a funny comedy special, and it was actually refreshing not to hear the same old tired material that everybody talks about. Religion, homosexuality, politics, and race. Dude talks about ugly people and Lebron's fake hair. I was happy not to have to listen to another comedian wade into cringy commentary on society. Just tell some jokes, brighten my day, and make me laugh for an hour or so. Mission accomplished. Thanks Kevin.
Hilarious

I don't know how Kevin does it....because he skips politics and the LGBT...and still brings the laughs. He talks about his dad dying 10 days prior and says not to be sad....it's a celebration of his dad's life. He told funny stories about his dad...and it's easy to see that Kevin got much of his humor from his dad. He takes shots at celebrities and their cosmetic surgeries. The jokes about crazy horse were so funny....almost looked like Kevin's head rotated 360. I didn't expect to laugh this much. Kevin has such high energy and he keeps the laughs coming. Yes there are the usual foul words but many big laughs!
The death of Kevin Hart
TerribleMovie13 July 2023
Kevin Hart will never be funny again. It's time to mourn and move on. His fall from funny is like a plane nose diving into the ground. This special was the final nail in his coffin. It's a disjointed mess of random topics that are bland and boring: plastic surgery, Will Smith, Covid. This material is old and rusty. Will Smith should slap the funny back into him. No amount of Kevin's energy can save these outdated topics. Kevin is like an old dog that can't learn new tricks. The grave has been dug, the nails are in place, it's time to lower Kevin into the ground. The funny Kevin is dead. Rest in peace.

I'm not much of a Kevin hart fan, especially his goofy gimmicks on every movie role that he gets, I enjoyed em on the first jumanji.
Of all his stand up, I can tell you this was 1st time I watched without getting distracted by my phone, most of the punchlines where predictable but he had a way of delivering them that made you burst out laughing It's one thing I've realised that he is better when doing his own material compared to him in someones production
Even when he tells his questionable life stories, you still laugh while you think to your self this is a fib, it never happened & I like how he managed to blend in quick when he forgets a line, which im sure many viewers never noticed.

Boring and bland

He plays it too safe and that's why his stand up specials lack in every category. It's like he is afraid to offend people and holds himself back. That's not the way to a good show.
Watching this i was seriously wondering what the audience was laughing about. It's like they heard the best jokes in the world. While in reality we got some boring anecdotes and that's all. Probably the wonders of editing. Even Chris Rock did it better in his latest although that was also kind of weak.
Watching a short black guy yapping around...I don't find this funny at all. He lacks edge and there are no punches which makes his "comedy" a snooze-fest.
