So right off the bat, I am going to tell you I am biased against Steve Carell. I really don't care for the guy or his movies. But I am going to try and put those feelings aside for the sakes of this damn review.
Date Night is about an average everyday married couple who try to go out of their routine, and it basically goes to shit. Not just any shit, the kind of shit that you call Waste Management for at three in the morning and hope you don't get a fucking answering machine.
The acting wasn't bad. Although I don't really like Steve Carell, both him and Tina Fey did a decent job. It definitely wasn't Oscar material but it wasn't a complete waste. Pretty mediocre.
The movie has a really dry humor and I honestly didn't find it that funny. However, the people in the theater laughed, so I imagine at least some people will find it humorous. I didn't really laugh that much, but I did crack up a time or two.
The storyline is really off the wall (not quite like Michael Jackson's). It takes you on a wild ride and it really doesn't make a lot of sense, but honestly, who says it has to? Reminds me of watching Harold and Kumar as they try to go to White Castle, which is actually a story line that I really like.
The best part of this movie is definitely the ending. Although I thought it was a little far fetched, the way it concluded really got to me. Maybe because I am a sap for some of that shit. Watch it and you will know what I mean. Plus the out-takes were pretty funny.
Since I mention that you should watch this flick, I have to give this movie a threesome out of a cherry pit (3 out of 5). It is definitely one you should try and watch with your babe :):):)
