Der steinreiche Investment-Banker James King wird wegen Betrugs zu zehn Jahren Gefängnis verurteilt. In 30 Tagen soll er die Haft im Hochsicherheitsgefängnis St. Quentin antreten. Aus Furcht vor dem brutalen Leben hinter Gittern sucht er einen Coach, der ihn darauf vorbereiten kann. Vorurteilsbehaftet wie er ist, glaubt er, in dem afroamerikanischen Autowäscher Darnell den richtigen gefunden zu haben. Der gutherzige, unbescholtene Familienvater übernimmt den Job, weil er Kings Lohn für sein Eigenheim gut brauchen kann. Darnell ahnt nicht, worauf er sich einlässt. (ORF)

A classic contemporary comedy. It has a pretty good idea, with a lot of exaggerated facial expressions and overacting, which is pretty much expected from Ferrell and Hart, and in the end, just an unsatisfying bonding of the two characters. The potential that was there clearly seems untapped to me, which I think is quite a problem. There's really very little humor in it.

Kevin Hart and Will Ferrell make for a good duo. Honestly, it’s been a long time since I was this happy about a pair of guys, one of whom is black and the other white. It might have been a little bit too crazy at times, which is exactly something you can expect with those two dorks, but on the other hand, it met my expectations and even though a few of the scenes were a bit weaker, I overall had a good time watching Get Hard.

A pleasant comedy to entertain but without any higher ambitions. Will Ferrell and Kevin Hart are great, the gags are also decent, I laughed out loud a few times, but towards the end the film runs out of breath, so in the end only a strong three stars. Definitely one of the better flicks this year. 65%
