Netflix has released the new intergenerational action-comedy film *72 Hours*, directed by Tim Story and written by Jon Hurwitz and Hayden Schlossberg. The movie stars Kevin Hart as a 40-year-old marketing executive who spends time with a group of Gen Zers to understand youth culture. The cast also features Teyana Taylor and Mason Gooding.

Critics have given the film mixed to negative reviews, describing it as a mediocre knockoff of *The Hangover*. Reviewers noted that while Kevin Hart commits fully to the physical comedy and slapstick, the film ultimately squanders its premise, with critics pointing out that the inclusion of a crime subplot detracts from the comedy.
