Kevin Hart claims that his success has engendered false perceptions about his life. He wants to set the record straight by putting out a performance at Madison Square Garden. He starts by traveling the world with his "Let Me Explain" comedic tour.That's the setup. It has the effect of play acting. It's an excuse to make a bunch of observational jokes mostly about his various women. The audience is mostly black and they are exuberant in their laughing. One thing Kevin Hart does is that he makes the effort. He is all energy and sweat. He puts his everything into his performance. There are some laughs but I find the reaction shots overwhelm the jokes. I'm not saying the jokes are bad. They are functional but not outrageously funny. One should avoid the cleaned up version since Kevin is swearing up a storm. Part of the fun is the swearing.

I was very disappointed in Kevin Hart's most recent stand-up special. The first 20 minutes were not even comedy, they were just a poorly written parody of him at a party trying to "explain" himself to his friends. Then the next 30 minutes were just boring, especially for Kevin Hart's standards. By that time, you're checking the clock every five minutes anxious for the special to end. Finally, after that snooze fest, some great, classic Hart-humor kicks in. I'd say the last 30 minutes of the special were outstanding and make the special worth watching. That being said, the first 50 minutes hurt the experience and dragged down the rating. The laugh-to-bore ratio should be better than 3-to-5.

This performance was so bad that I felt the need to create an IMDb account just so I can warn anyone who is thinking of buying this. I really do not understand what all the hype is with Kevin Hart. All he does is ramble and scream about nonsense. His delivery is wildly erratic and his material is just not good. Not to mention his ego is the size of Madison square garden and that is evident through the entire performance. I might have cracked a few smiles but that is it, not one laugh throughout the entire performance. If there was a option to give a star lower then a 1 I'd do it, seriously. Where in the hell is Dave Chapelle at when we need him?? Now that's a true comedic genius.

If you can skip past the first 16 minutes of His Narcissistic Introduction, You will find a stand-up routine that is Fresh and comparable to an early Eddy Murphy without all the Raunch. Kevin manages to explain his bad boy image in a way that has you rolling in laughter and agreeing with his views, all the while endearing himself to his audience. His complete Honesty about Lying is so over the top, you start to believe Telling a Lie is an Art Form and you have been doing it wrong all along. Because of his humor, You just can't help but love him for all of his faults, even if he's a Pathological Comedy Genius!
