I really like Kevin Hart. I like his movies. I like all of the stand-up he has done to date. I wish him well. "What Now?", however, was difficult to watch. It started with a 15 minute self-indulgent James Bond take off that was more WTF than funny and went downhill from there. I felt embarrassed for him and robbed of the 30 minutes I invested watch (yes, turned it off half way through).

I have really enjoyed "Iron Fist". Like all series, it has had high points and low points; good episodes and less good. The final episode in the series, however, was terrible. It was poorly written (it felt like an afterthought). It was poorly choreographed. It was even poorly acted, though that no doubt stemmed from the writing. I hope the people responsible were metaphorically beaten with rubber hoses, because it was a huge let down and not at all the ending that the otherwise great series, or its fans, deserved.

There are a lot of reviews from very obvious anti-Shumer trolls on here, so let me start by saying I'm a huge Amy Shumer fan. I have really enjoyed her past stand-up work, her series, Trainwreck... Come to think of it, I have enjoyed pretty much everything she has done up till now. The Leather Special, however, was really disappointing. It felt almost like she was performing a caricature of herself. I suppose if you had never seen her before, I can imagine it might have been alright, but for her fans it felt stale.
