«Breaking News» All hart but few laughs from Kevin! BRIAN VINER reviews Night School

Night School (12A)

Verdict: Witless comedy

Rating:

Kevin Hart produced, co-wrote and stars in this dispiritingly clunky, witless comedy, so he takes most of the blame.

He plays Teddy Walker, an Atlanta high school drop-out who loses his job as a barbecue-grill salesman when the shop explodes following his elaborate proposal to his improbably perfect, high-flying girlfriend.

To get a job decent enough to impress her, not to mention his bullying father, he has to enrol in night classes held at the very school at which he flunked his exams years earlier.

Inevitably, the boy who loathed him most back then is now the principal.

With Tiffany Haddish playing the unorthodox night school teacher (her techniques involve a boxing ring), and a classful of stereotypes (the dimwit, the rebel, the housewife trying to better herself, the Mexican immigrant), there ensues a series of mirthless episodes that might remind those of you who remember Seventies telly, of Mind Your Language — a sitcom we’d all rather forget.

On the whole it’s desperately poor fare, which in the audience I was in, yielded precisely three half-laughs (I counted).

I confess to smiling when Teddy gets a job in an evangelical fast-food outlet called Christian Chicken, but that was about it. 

For all his goofy charisma, Hart, who styles himself as a kind of African-American Jerry Lewis, cannot save this feeble comedy from itself.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
