Get Hard Reviews
Hart and Ferrell make this movie raunchy, silly, hysterical and fun.

Obvious, lazy, tone-deaf, and mean-spirited - and that, friends, is hard to laugh at.

For a movie that wants to send a message about privilege and prejudice, it displays a clumsiness and exemplifies a lot of the ignorance and thoughtlessness it wants to rage against.

It's all awful enough that you expect the movie to end with a title card that proclaims, "Don't worry, guys - we have gay friends and black friends. We're cool."

A confused and contradictory mess.

I wanted to tell the film-makers where to shove it, but having seen the movie it's clear that they've already done so.
| Original Score: 1/5 | Mar 29, 2015
Ferrell has stuck to the formulaic farce that made him a star, even as his roles have been shifting from antic instigator to bewildered straight man.

From its juvenile double entendre title to its fascination with prison rape and homophobic humor, "Get Hard" practically announces itself as an offensive, tired and unimaginative comedy in nearly every scene.

Kevin Hart gives his all, but infectious energy does little to rescue the heavy-handedness of Get Hard.
| Mar 27, 2015
The director Etan Cohen neither gets the best out of his two leads nor manages to give his story much of a satirical or political kick.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 27, 2015
Get Hard packs an impressive gag-rate into its fairly thin premise.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Mar 27, 2015
It trucks in stereotypes (black, white, Latino, female -- the list is long) and plays clumsily with sexuality. Still, the movie's greatest and altogether familiar sin is that it's stupid.

Get Hard turns out to be a far cry from something like Trading Places or even the clever first half of the class-insurrection comedy of Tower Heist.
| Mar 27, 2015
It feels like a bunch of off-color jokes the filmmakers have been trying to tell for years, and they've crammed them all into one film - with tiresome results.

If you love rape jokes, "Get Hard" is your movie.
| Original Score: 2/4 | Mar 27, 2015
Will you laugh? Absolutely. Could this have been a better film? Definitely.
| Original Score: B- | Mar 27, 2015
Not entirely unfunny.
| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Mar 27, 2015
The highest praise I can give "Get Hard" is that it is not quite as awful as it could have been.
| Mar 26, 2015
A lazy attempt to drag out a Funny or Die-style skit to feature length by continuously recycling about eight minutes worth of gags.
| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Mar 26, 2015
The movie seeks to make you laugh while also risking offense by going too far. It succeeds on both counts.
| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Mar 26, 2015
