Plot
The film features two main parts, a spy story and a comedy performance. The film cuts back and forth between the two.
In the film's spy sub-plot, set before the events of the performance, Kevin is an agent for MI6 (Agent 0054) and attends a poker game event with his date Money Berry (Halle Berry) only for it to go horribly wrong. As a result, he must deliver a stand-up comedy show, which leads to the performance.
In the performance portion, Kevin Hart performs at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, providing a humorous insight into parenting, people on the edge, current events and his hardships in everyday life.
