Married couple tries to have a nice romantic night out, but dangerous people think they are someone else, and the night turns into dangerous adventure.
I've been watching a lot of 30 Rock and last night I was looking throught Netflix to find different movies Tina Fey has been in. Date Night is one of the movies I found, and since my dad had already seen it, and he said it was funny.
Date Night is definitely a funny movie. The way the two main characters just keep getting mixed in misadventures and situations which get crazier all the time is hilarious.
Usually when a movie is about a married couple, there are those few annoying tropes. Screenwriters seem to hate marriage - they make it seem boring and hellish if there are kids involved, and there's no spark anymore and blah blah. But in Date Night these two actually communicate, even if there seemed to be the same exact problem in the beginning as in many other movies. It's refreshing to see a somewhat typical comedy, yet the writers are not using those tropes as a way to create humor. It's not funny if a couple hates each other, it's just sad and weird.
Date Night is an ordinary in its genre, though it is mixing two typical genres together. Still, it's hilarious and worth watching.
