Just a few weeks shy of his last movie release “The Wedding Ringer” Kevin Hart is
back in the big screen again and with double the laughs.

Directed by Etan Cohen, Get Hard plays with the different cultural stereotypes and
cultural assumptions. The movie is based on a white, wealthy businessman who is 
going to prison and is afraid of prison rape. James King (Will Ferrell) plays the
successful manager at a brokerage firm run by his fiancee’s (Alison Brie) father(
Craig T. Nelson). But King is far from a self-centered stock-market shark villain.
He’s a well-meaning guy who happens to be a baffoon with a Harvard education. He’s
admired by his colleagues and usually saunters past them as a prized gold medal.

Darnell Lewis (Kevin Hart) is a black, hard-working business man who runs a car 
wash out of the parking garage where King works. Lewis has a house and a family.
He is struggling to get a $30,000 loan that he needs in order to move his daughter(
Ariana Neal) into a different school system where she won’t be wanded by security
guards.

Unlike King, Lewis sweats and scrubs to earn a few dollars. Meanwhile, King, Upstairs
in his big office, makes his firm a whopping $28 million dollars with just a phone
call.

One day out of desperation, Lewis approaches King in hopes that he will invest $
30,000 into his car wash business. King, who’s inside of the car when Darnell approaches
him, starts screaming for help because he mistakens Darnell (who is wearing a gray
hoodie in the scene) as a carjacker. He then realizes it’s Darnell, apologizes and
said he would have acted any other way if he were “rich or poor or white or miscellaneous.”
He then gives him a whole speech on working hard to achieve a dream.

King is later arrested at his own engagement party and is wrongfully accused of 
fraud at his company. Sentenced to 10 years in San Quentin prison, King hires Lewis
to teach him how to survive in prison, assuming that Lewis (Hart) has been incarcerated
before. Lewis, who is obviously offended by King’s assumptions, decides he’ll teach
him how to Get Hard for $30,000.00. This is when the dynamics of the movie really
flourish.

Get hard is stupid, offensive and funny, which is exactly what the movie is supposed
to be. Kevin Hart and Will Ferrell will have you laughing out loud at the different
shenanigans they get themselves into. You’re guaranteed to walk out of the movie
theater with sore abs and knowing the definition of keistering. To go see this movie
