Kevin is throwing a celebration party, but guests tell him that he has changed since his divorce.

The film also shows performances of his sold-out shows from all around the world.

Reception

Critical response

Kevin Hart: Let Me Explain received positive reviews, with many critics praising Hart's stand-up outlook and comparing the film to Eddie Murphy Raw. Rotten Tomatoes gives the film a score of 63%, based on reviews from 41 critics. The site's consensus is: "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."[3]
