Date Night: surprisingly refreshing

Tweet

8.5/10 rating. This is the first movie in a LONG time where I honestly had no idea what was going to happen next. I LOVE Tina Fey for that. But the combo of her and Steve Carell is GOLD!! It's an awkward-humour match made in heaven! But as much as it was hilarious, the other awesome thing about this movie, is how personable it was. Both Tina and Steve played a very real married couple who had been together for a long time. Empathizing with them is very easy. This is arguably the single best thing about the movie. They just seem like a normal couple who would do everything that any other normal couple would do given certain....strange circumstances. And again, as a normal couple, they still manage to have great on-screen chemistry. The other HUGE perk of this movie is Mark Wahlberg....SHIRTLESS! Judge me all you like, their a tons of hot ladies too, but WOW... Seldom do girls get genuine hotness in a fun, genuinely entertaining movie. Even Steve's character in the movie got jealous. So there you go. Given the original plot-line, the humour, the duo of Tina and Steve, and shirtless Mark Wahlberg, you should NOT underestimate this movie. Highly recommended.
