Get Hard (2015, D: Etan Cohen) S: Will Ferrell, Kevin Hart
Can't wait for the jokes about the title.
Warner Bros is negotiating to acquire Get Hard, a comedy pitch package that will be developed as a star vehicle for Will Ferrell and Kevin Hart. The plan is for Ferrell to play a rich, soft-handed investment bank manager who is sentenced to a maximum security prison for a crime he didn’t commit. He hires the streetwise guy who normally washes his car to get him ready to do hard time in the 30 days before he has to report to prison.
The script will be written by Ian Roberts & Jay Martel, who are currently executive producers and showrunners on Comedy Central’s Key & Peele. Gary Sanchez is attached to produce.

Kevin Hart really isn't that good of a standup. The first season of Husbands of Hollywood was lol but his other stuff is just meh.

I really can't stand Kevin Hart but I guess I have to accept the fact that Hollywood is going to continue to shove him down our throats.

I think this looks okay, I like Kevin Hart and Ferrell seems decent in this going off the previews. I might check it out this weekend sometime.

Yeah, Bill Murray made a mistake like that once, and now has two Garfield movies to show for it.

Saw a matinee today. I liked it. It was pretty funny, but predictable as most comedies are. The premise is ridiculous & thin because it's playing off stereotypes of corporate white collar people & people from urban cities. Ferrell is super over the top at times which is his schtick. But he and Hart played well off each other. I got some good laughs from their scenes together.
Seeing Alison Brie is lingerie, tiny little tennis dress and a tiny little golf skirt. She played Ferrell's fiance and honestly they were a really odd couple.
I'd give it a B, but comedies don't really have much replay value for me since the jokes usually don't work for me a 2nd time. I think seeing this once was enough.
