Steve Carell and Tina Fey star as a married couple whose dinner date turns into something they least expected.
Honestly, I didn't have high hopes for this one. There wasn't anything terribly original about it, and the papers didn't love it. However, I was once again reminded that just because the critics don't it, doesn't mean I won't. It was fun.
What made this was Steve and Tina, who are, individually, some of the funniest people today. If it had been any other actors in their parts, the movie has the potential to be horrible, but because of their perfect timing, chemistry, and super-likeability, they sold it.
There are almost no real "extras" in this movie, any random part could be played by someone recognizable from either movies or tv, so that was fun to see who would pop up next and if one can identify where they're from.
This is a good "date movie." Ha ha ha. It's a good length, has consistent if not constant laughs, a sweet message, and Steve Carell dancing. A good, light way to spend an evening.
