Kevin Hart's new comedy, '72 Hours,' has garnered significant backlash following its release. Critics have panned the film, with Rotten Tomatoes showing a dismal 17% approval rating. Reviewers have described '72 Hours' as unoriginal, boring, and a "disaster of epic proportions," with some suggesting it makes Hart's recent controversial Netflix roast look favorable.
The movie, which is now available to stream on Netflix, follows Hart as Joe, who joins a bachelor party weekend after being accidentally added to a group chat. Despite a cast that includes Teyana Taylor, Mason Gooding, Mike Epps, and Katt Williams, the film has failed to impress many viewers. Audience scores on Rotten Tomatoes registered at 49%, indicating a divided reception. However, even positive audience reactions were mild, with many expressing disappointment and finding the film underwhelming.
