A group of troublemakers are forced to attend night school in hope that they'll pass the GED exam to finish high school.

Now this one was kinda like The Breakfast Club. Coincidences huh?

But they actually learn something in this one. It may not be as classy, but it felt genuine. It had feeling - just like the former. Whenever Kevin Hart's involved you know there's going to be some crazy too, but it's the good kind in this one. Mostly. He doesn't talk too much either. Could've done fine without the vomit and some of those other bits but hey... the rest makes me consider those bits as minor disturbances, and when it's all over you feel like you really want to grab life by the neck and take a hold of it for real. I'm doing it. Motivation. Even if you did your school and graduation.

The cast basically consists entirely of comedians, excluding Fat Joe who, oddly enough, actually comes off as one of the most entertaining ones in the bunch. And most intense. And most truthful. Props.

The chemistry good between all of them, though that does go in phases, and I like to think that all the disturbing bits were Rob Riggle. Not Hart. What can I say? Just doesn't seem like his style... props Tiffany Haddish, Bresha Webb and Romani too. And the others. They make a good crew.

There are some loose ends though. The roof, for one. How did they get out of that one? And hey, wait for the outro. ;) It's not all flawless, but it's a blast all the way through, and with a good message to boot. Not bad.

 rated 4/5: fo shizzle

I wrote a massive wall of text in my resolutions post, so I'll keep this one slim, as the fireworks still occasionally brighten the dusty skies of overdue dusk outside, and the first few minutes of the New Year fade away.

It's a New Year! It really is. A new anno. 2019. An' you... what you gonna do?

Myself I'm both hyped and fearful of what this one might bring; if it'll lead me the right way or put up new roadblocks on this wobbly walk of life. But I shall meet it with resolve and great expectation, as should you, as we should all with any new phase of days we get! Yes!

Not just years, but months too, and weeks, and days. Treat each one like it might be your last, and live it to the fullest... but also note that tomorrow might be your last, so don't live this one in a way that you won't appreciate that one, too. And whatever daze of days may follow.

Here's hoping for only great things in the New Era that now starts! The last one passed way too fast, but I'm (cautiously) hopeful about this one.

Happy 2019.
