Kid is also juggling high-profile movie roles, but his off-screen performance to appear cool and collected under these trying circumstances is a little hit-miss, with his agitated behavior unsettling his manager (Paul Adelstein) and causing friction among those around him. Here, he plays Kid, who comes to play in his hometown of Philadelphia, where a night out with his support-hungry brother Carlton (Wesley Snipes) triggers a major crisis, forcing him to engage his brother’s help to clean up the mess, while being drawn into the orbit of some very, very bad people.
The series notably follows another dramatic role by Hart for Netflix, the movie “Fatherhood,” a much softer exercise. Also producing the Netflix limited series with “Narcos’” Eric Newman, Hart delivers a crisp and compelling drama that, at seven episodes, avoids the mistake of prolonging the act beyond its weight. Kevin Hart stays close to his comfort zone in one respect in “True Story” – playing a wealthy and famous comedian – while stretching in another, in a dark drama of cascading stakes and consequences.
