But throw years of experience in stand-up comedy out of the window and let us examine this debate within the scope of the films they have starred in and the characters they have embodied.
Make no mistake Ryan Reynolds is terrific!
Ryan Reynolds is a remarkable actor. Saying he is exceptional, will be a gross understatement. The charisma and charm he brings to his characters are magnificent. Although this same praise can be declared for Kevin Hart, it goes beyond saying that the Deadpool star does not really act in his movies.

Ryan Reynolds is so good at humour that he does not need to really dive into character to deliver a comic experience. It comes so naturally to him, that it is assumed he only steps on set to be himself as he is inherently funny. Reynolds can say the most random line in a way that will cause a rib-cracking reaction from the viewers. In a viral TikTok analysis, a film critic made a list of A-list actors who seemed to be acting themselves in all the films they appear in, following Samuel L Jackson, and Robert Downey Jr. was no other than Ryan Reynolds.
But Kevin Hart is funnier
Kevin Hart on the other hand is a certified standup comedian. In the area of trash talk, demonstrating hilarious facial expressions and meme-worthy moments, he takes the upper hand in the diverse kind of characters he portrays, unlike Ryan Reynolds.
