Night School

Night School has all the trappings of the usual Kevin Hart movie, but his brand of over-the-top, self-deprecating humor is in top form.

Such sexual tone-deafness is especially infuriating because the film is almost enlightened in other areas.

The film is a vehicle for Haddish, whose timing and delivery make the jokes jump off the page.

Unfocused and uninspired, Night School has its moments but is held back by a script that required more study.

Instead of leaning into the very funny people populating it, the movie gets distracted with a laborious setup... and then a heist... and a prom... all just so it can keep skipping class.

There are just enough laughs to make "Night School" worth it, if you're in the mood. Even when it's not hilarious, there's a comic spirit that's active and never flags, from scene to scene.

Haddish, though, matches Hart’s up-tempo comic energy, which also has some genuinely funny supporting turns.

I laid back and had a few laughs... It gives the [comedians] the opportunity to showcase their comedic chops.

Night School is filled with funny people but the humour falls somewhere on a scale between Welcome Back Kotter and Saved by the Bell.

For die hard Kevin Hart fans only.
