Comedy in which a group of adults attend night school in order to pass their high school exams.
Whenever Haddish is on screen, taking down bad behaviour or displaying a gentler side, there are glimmers of the kind of gold that might have made this a success; that's before the team of six writers bulldozed the screenplay with bland physical comedy and semi-incoherent set-pieces.
It has more of a social conscience than most of [Kevin Hart's] other vehicles but keeps the laughs coming too.
Hart’s natural comedy talent is wasted in this unfunny tale of a high-school dropout who desperately needs to pass an exam.
Turn-your-brain-off fare, and not exactly thrilled about the presentation of the female characters.
Unfocused and uninspired, Night School has its moments but is held back by a script that required more study.
