Decent watch, probably won't watch again, but can recommend.
It does feel like this is made for a very specific audience, but it is all about how get past your past and make your future (somewhat) better.
The "main" story line seems to be a guy living a boring life is into Gillian Jacobs, which I totally get, but not when you have Maria Thayer at home. Even value, I would take snuggling up comfortably at home over a club any day.
It's the first time I've seen Kevin Hart play a smart character, and it turns arrogant character really fast.
It's also the first time I've seen Simon Helberg play a criminal, and I can't say it was very impressive, though he did do "crazy" well.
There are some great movies that cross multi-threaded stories, but this feels like the Kevin Hart and Old man robbers are just kind of tacked on. There just isn't enough interaction between the the stories.
It's worth a watch, but it's not "Snatch".

Good performance from Kevin, infact they all nailed it... Just the story was slow, it wasn't that gripping. It felt like it was leading up to something that never came. It's not the worst movie I've seen but I would deffo not watch it again
"I don't think anyone actually wants to become a parole officer." Walter is a parole officer who isn't happy with his job. One by one a new offender comes to him and he has to lay out the rules. During his recent sting of offenders he meets three very different personalities and does his best to try and help them all. He finds that helping them he starts to help himself. Going in I was not really looking forward to this that much. The preview made it look OK but I still thought it could be a little slow moving. This was the opposite. The humor was really funny but still a little quirky. Kevin Hart was great in this and he really stole the movie. There really isn't too much to this movie other then all four of the main people trying to straighten out their lives but this is worth seeing. This is the type of movie you can just put in and watch without really having to think about too much and every once in a while that is nice to do. Overall, a fun lighthearted comedy that is relaxing to watch. I give it a B.
