Critics Consensus

Night School's funny stars and seemingly promising setup add up to a disappointingly scattershot comedy whose laughs are largely held in detention.

Read Critics Reviews

Andrea Thompson Chicago Reader 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. Jan 26, 2019 Full Review Ed Potton Times (UK) Such sexual tone-deafness is especially infuriating because the film is almost enlightened in other areas. Rated: 2/5 Oct 3, 2018 Full Review Simran Hans Observer (UK) The film is a vehicle for Haddish, whose timing and delivery make the jokes jump off the page. Rated: 3/5 Oct 1, 2018 Full Review Calum Cooper Source (Scotland) With a story this overused, I’d be far more forgiving if it was at least funnier. But it has no real comedic flair, and so didn’t generate any noteworthy reaction outside of the occasional chuckle. Rated: 2/5 Jul 14, 2024 Full Review M.N. Miller Ready Steady Cut Haddish, though, matches Hart’s up-tempo comic energy, which also has some genuinely funny supporting turns. Rated: 3/5 Aug 16, 2022 Full Review Lonita Cook KCTV5 News at 9 I laid back and had a few laughs... It gives the [comedians] the opportunity to showcase their comedic chops.

alan g Should have left Kevin Fart in the locker and thrown away tge key. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 12/10/24 Full Review Dave S Another Kevin Hart disaster! This movie tried too hard and Kevin Hart was at the center of it all. Usually like Kevin Hart movies but the last few movies have been disappointing, Night School is one of the worst. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 12/01/24 Full Review Marion W I hate my lecturer for making me watch this movie. It's clear they didn't write any jokes and they were just ad-libbing. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 05/21/24 Full Review F T It was horrible dumb boring and the comedy was weak. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 05/17/24 Full Review Luke R That movie is so funny! Tiffany Haddish is so hilarious, especially with the leprechaun joke! Although I’m over the movie now. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/20/25 Full Review Rob B Hilarious. I don't know why I waited too long to watch this movie but I enjoyed almost every minute of it. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/01/24 Full Review Read all reviews
