Movie #195 "Date Night" was very funny to me. I know comedy varies from one funnybone to another, but Dave and I both found this a very satisfactory comedy. The premise and characters are very believable , and it didn't cross the stupid line for me. I kept thinking: what if this happened, ohmygod! And instead of being terrified, I laughed because the comedy is in the good hands of masters of comedy Steve Carrel and Tina Fey, and only enhanced by all the other cameo appearances (like Kristin Wigg from SNL, Mark Ruffalo in a comic twist, and Markie Mark is a hoot!). I recommend it, esp. knowing full well that good dramatic films outnumber good comedies in the theaters like 2 to 1. Out of all of them out there now, I'm placing bets on this one!

Date Night
(2010) PG-13
Who knew simple dinner reservations under a different name could turn one New Jersey couple's date night so terribly upside-down? Claire (Tina Fey) and Phil (Steve Carell) Foster leave their kids with the sitter (Leighton Meester) and head out for a night on the town -- as the Tripplehorns. Shawn Levy (Just Married, Night at the Museum) directs this action-comedy; Mark Wahlberg and James Franco co-star.
