Audience Reviews for Road Hard

  • Dec 02, 2015
    A stand-up comedian who had a flared-out popular career returns to the road. Almost nothing about this movie works. Obviously autobiographical (the protagonist starred on "The Bro Show" instead of "The Man Show" and his ex-partner is a late-night talk show host), Adam Carolla's starring vehicle is a sad, atonal mess of a predictable plot with stale jokes and bits that are as unimaginative as they are poorly delivered. The film wastes its first and second acts on repetitive plot events that serve only to set up one of the most predictable third acts I've ever seen. Only Howie Mandel's cameo is at all funny, with the rest of the supporting characters either completely unimaginative (his daughter who serves only to provide means for exposition) or trite excuses for preconceived bits (David Alan Grier's stand-up about African American names being similar to the names of medications). The end of the film reveals that it was crowd-sourced, and this film is almost bad enough to make me believe in the studio system. Overall, fuck this movie and everyone who gave money to make it.
