Critics Consensus: It's ironically rather short on standup from Mr. Hart himself, but structural problems aside, Kevin Hart: Let Me Explain offers another example of why he's achieved mainstream success on his own terms.

I could have done without [the] pointless framing device, but there is some funny and highly incorrect material here.
Kevin Hart's (Along Came Polly) audience loves him, but if you're not in love yet, this probably won't start the infatuation for you.
Once Hart finally gets onstage his act can barely live up to the hype.
Kevin Hart is indeed a talented comedian. This is just not his best material.
Any comic who can play the Garden must be good, but you wouldn't know it from this jumble of random routines and on-the-bus footage.
He is, maybe, a little too frenetic, too frequently at full speed. But when he gets rolling, the laugh lines come quick, one after the other, and he kills.
By the end of the show/film, we learn that Hart is in fact living his dream, yet we still all know that he can only go up from here.
At only 75 minutes long, you question whether the better medium might have been cable TV or VOD and not a theatrical release.
Hart is a great comic - there is no doubt about that - but Let Me Explain reaches a kind of tipping point.
I had a great night out. Unfortunately, I know Kevin Hart can do better.
The laughs are frequent, with Hart's energy and timing having grown and been honed to more than fill the vast, cavernous space of Madison Square Garden.
I'd rather attend a Norman Wisdom tribute concert in downtown Tirana than see this film again.
It's fairly short than anticipated with plenty of cut scenes that ruin the authenticity of his performance but Let Me Explain is just a reminder of how Kevin Hart's comedic charm has exploded and has made him a pop-culture idol. 3.5/5
Super Reviewer
Kevin Hart Let Me Explain is a decent little stand up movie, but it's too short. There's a little skit at the beginning and by the time he gets on stage, there's only like an hour of actual Kevin Hart. The standup he performs is for the most part, really funny. Kevin Hart fans will love it. The standup show is at Madison Square Garden and by the comments of Kevin Hart at his show, this obviously means a lot to him. That adds a cool new element to the show.

Going into this film I said to myself, "I hope this isn't a flop, and I hope he doesn't begin to go downhill from here". Wow was I wrong. Let me put it this way.....it takes a lot for me to cry tears from laughter.....this stand-up did the job. One of the funniest things I have ever seen. Period.
