2/4
A highly engineered product. There isn’t a scene in it that won’t remind you of some other comedy, particularly “The Hangover.” Go to Full Review

72 Hours hangs everyone out to dry, even on the beaches of Miami, where hedonism, bikinis and gangsters are the unavoidable appointments of exhausted storytelling. Go to Full Review

Even when making Hart the butt of chopped-unc jokes, though, there’s plenty of ego preservation for the unabashed star-producer Go to Full Review

[Heart's] younger co-stars (most of whom will be familiar to current viewers of Saturday Night Live) keep the energy levels high enough to cover most flat spots. Go to Full Review

1/4
An intriguing comic premise about tapping into the mindset of the Gen-Z manosphere is nothing more than a BS supplement sold to trap viewers into one unfunny conversation and situation after another that to no surprise also includes beating up women. Go to Full Review

Give these guys a script that was actually written -- jokes and all -- and you might have something worth remembering past next week. Instead, they’re the good ingredients wasted on a chef who stopped trying years ago. Go to Full Review

Rob W @RT16021391 1h So bad, that I had to write a review so no one else wastes their time trying to watch this. The comedy was 100% cringe. See more Ryan C @djrmc24 16h 72 Hours is the latest Kevin Hart movie that is both unfunny and not entertaining. I feel as all those involved were doing this film just for the payday from Netflix. It’s a shame because I really like the Director, Tim Story, who has made some decent films over the years. The jokes don’t land overall and I kept looking at my watch to see when will this be all over. 72 hours was a big waste of my time and I say skip it. The lowest of low ratings with a 1 star out of 5. See more Tony D @tonyd7 19h C rated rip off of the Hangover See more Cody A @code3 1d Kevin heart is funny See more AYMEN B @RT10564225 1d Script very synthetic, one of worst Kevin Hart mmovies. See more Jeremy M @RT76830991 2d Very funny, gives me hope we may return the 2000s era of comedy masterpieces. I would give the movie an 8/10, but it is a must see considering the drought of good comedies. I think if Kevin Hart did a better or almost uncanny impression of scarface, especially facial expressions and acting it wouldve been a much better bit. Looking forward to the sequel, I just hope they flesh out the characters a little more, and take more risks with the humor. See more Read all reviews
