When a rich hedge-fund manager, James, is convicted of fraud and sentenced to a stretch in San Quentin, the judge gives him one month to get his affairs in order. Knowing that he won't survive more than a few minutes in prison on his own, James turns to Darnell, a Black businessman who's never even had a parking ticket, for help. As Darnell puts James through the wringer, both learn that they were wrong about many things, including each other.

Critics Consensus

A waste of two fine funnymen, Get Hard settles for tired and offensive gags instead of tapping into its premise's boundary-pushing potential.

Hart and Ferrell make this movie raunchy, silly, hysterical and fun.

Obvious, lazy, tone-deaf, and mean-spirited - and that, friends, is hard to laugh at.

For a movie that wants to send a message about privilege and prejudice, it displays a clumsiness and exemplifies a lot of the ignorance and thoughtlessness it wants to rage against.

2/5

Occasionally offensive-but what R-rated comedy in the last ten years isn't?-but worse than that, it takes the easy way out and in the process wastes the opportunity to dig a bit deeper and make the class warfare comedy a bit richer.

6/10

The film exists in an alternate reality, where lots of guns are waved and no one gets shot, and where deadly situations pop up but result in barely a drop of spilt blood.

They're a pretty incredible comic duo even in a remarkably average film.

Probably one of Ferrels better movies to be honest. A fun watch indeed. 4/5 stars.

As long as you aren't expecting The Godfather and are expecting a serviceable Ferrell and Hart pairing with quite a few bad jokes, you'll be in for a pretty good time.

This was an incredibly fun and whacky movie that was a joy to sit through! The comedic power of Will Ferrell and Kevin Heart was utilized perfectly. I definitely recommend this for comedy and crime fans!

Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom
