Date Night Movie Reviews

Steve Carell and Tina Fey represent a new genre of humour that's somewhere in between Jim Carrey's slapstick and Kathy Griffin's stand-up. So their coming together in a romantic comedy is definitely reason to cheer. In Date Night, they play a jaded married couple trying to rekindle their fire by going out dining at a fancy restaurant in Manhattan only to land up in a soup. Caught in a hairy situation, they battle some bad cops, get shoved

It must be said that Date Night — in which a suburban married couple out for an evening in Manhattan endure car chases and the unwanted attention of thugs with guns — is superior to most recent movies of its kind, the marital action comedy. This is not saying much: better than The Bounty Hunter or Did You Hear About the Morgans? is not quite the same as “good”. The presence of Tina Fey and Steve Carell in the main roles

Claire(Tina Fey) and Phil Foster (Steve Carell), both in their forties, are a suburban couple slogging through their daily lives and marriage. They have their date nights every week but there is no sparkle in their marriage anymore. They decide to visit a trendy Manhattan Bistro in an attempt to re-ignite their marital spark- only to fall prey to a mistaken identity crisis that could well cost them their lives. Familiar and predictable
