Die Hart

"Die Hart" is a 'series' that was made for the Quibi streaming service, where the shows are meant to be watched on your smartphone when you're on the go, so the episodes are all under 9 minutes. There are some funny moments, but this is one of several Quibi shows that doesn't feel quite like a series or quite like a movie, being lost somewhere in the middle. Actually, "Die Hart" borrows generously from comedies from two decades ago. John Travolta shines in his role and looks like a different actor than we have been accustomed to and it gives him a new energy, while Kevin Hart plays his usual character - aloof and oblivious. The end result doesn't feel like a complete project, as much as spending the day watching clips on YouTube from a movie that you're not sure you want to pay to see in its entirety. I do know, I will not be re-watching this.

Rating: 5

I am not a Kevin Hart fan but I gave it a go as I like the other actors in it. The plot was simple and ptedictable and Kevin played his usual obnoxious self but the short episodes made it more bearable to watch. It's an ok time filler but very forgettable.

I just found out that this movie "Die Hart" existed today. I started it without knowing anything about it because I like Kevin Hart as an actor and comedian. John travolta is decent and that was just a bonus.

The movies budget seemed rather small but was enjoyable. The story kept me intrigued and I laughed quite a lot. The plot was very foreseen though. I whole time, I could guess what was going to happen. I'm stoned so I can't think of the word I wanted to use. The last 2 reviews judged this movie a little more hardly then they should have. My opinion is, this movie was pure entertainment. I really enjoyed it even if the very end was cheesy af.

I didn't even crack a smile. Just a bunch of goofs...blah blah blah. This is what legendary actors are doing now? Yikes.

Kevin Hart states that this series is about him playing a version of himself who doesn't want to be portrayed as a sidekick comedy charachter. However it only goes to prove that these are the only characters he is capable of playing.

The premise is pretty interesting, as it focuses on an actor who is successful in certain types of roles, but wishes to become a stand alone action hero. In order to achieve this he attends an action hero school where everything is not as it seems.

Based on this plot there are so many ways this could have been a unique and interesting show, but there is no depth or imagination and each episode feels like an 8 minute long trailer for a low budget action film you do not want to see.

The saving grace of this project is that each episode is only 8 minutes long.
