MORE SPOILER-FREE REVIEWS @ https://www.msbreviews.com/

"The Man From Toronto is the perfect example of an inoffensively generic weekend flick.

Embrace the shamelessly nonsensical story. Try to enjoy the "dumb fun" moments spread throughout the entire runtime - it could have been shorter. Accept the hilariously bad visual effects. Finally, stay for Kevin Hart and Woody Harrelson's typecast roles, who should be enough to entertain most viewers.

It's (very) far from being a good movie, but if you're one of those viewers who can tolerate purposefully silly, unrealistic, illogical narratives for the sake of entertainment, this Netflix project passes the time."

**Fans of Kevin Hart will enjoy it. Other than that, it's just a slightly above-average Netflix movie with some good laughs.**

If you have seen any other Kevin Hart movies, then you have seen this one. Hart plays himself once again as his character is thrown into another absurd larger-than-life caper. And anyone that tells you that is a bad thing is wrong. Kevin Hart keeps cranking out movies like this because they are entertaining! I enjoyed this one just like the rest. The Man from Toronto is very similar to Central Intelligence with shootouts, spying, action, and all. Hart's chemistry with Harrelson isn't as good as with Dwayne Johnson, but it isn't horrible. Some moments had me laughing pretty hard. The Man from Toronto was a fun entry in the mediocre Netflix-produced catalog that stood slightly taller than many of the streamer's other movies.

There could be a decent concept in there with The Man from... men, but in reality... 'The Man from Toronto' is poor.

I like both Kevin Hart and Woody Harrelson, and they do make it more watchable than it would otherwise be, but even those two couldn't stop this from being an unfortunately dull watch for me. Nothing about this feels fresh, it came out in 2022 but could've easily come out in 2012.

Hart's performance seems like something we've seen before, with it feeling - at least on the surface - the same as his roles in '<a href="https://letterboxd.com/film/central-intelligence/">Central Intelligence</a>' with Dwayne Johnson and in '<a href="https://letterboxd.com/film/ride-along/">Ride Along</a>' with Ice Cube. The plots are different, of course, but the vibe is pretty much the same. Hart should stick with films like '<a href="https://letterboxd.com/film/the-upside/">The Upside</a>' and '<a href="https://letterboxd.com/film/fatherhood-2021/">Fatherhood</a>', in my opinion.

It's very forgettable. in short. It's not helped by an overlong run time, either.
