Critics Consensus

An uneasy blend of action and comedy, Date Night doesn't quite live up to the talents of its two leads, but Steve Carell and Tina Fey still manage to shine through most of the movie's flaws.

Shubhra Gupta

The Indian Express

The real stars of the film are [Steve] Carell and [Tina] Fey for bringing such goofy conviction to this goofball comedy, much better than the director's previous attempts at broad humour in the two Night at the Museum films.

Rated: 2/5

Their marriage seems real but their predicament feels like no more than a scriptwriter's invention.

... Date Night is the fun, lighthearted comedy that the two TV heroes needed to reclaim their box office status.

Date Night becomes a routine action movie with jailbreak shots and car crashes. [Full review in Spanish]

It’s got everything you’d expect from a typical Hollywood picture: a predictable plot, mediocre quips, a dose of adrenaline, a sprinkle of bawdiness, and of course an A-list cast and cameo selection, including Ray Liotta, J.B. Smoove, Mila Kunis, will.i.am, Mark Ruffalo, Common, and many others. Date Night is quirky and enjoyable enough for a favorable review, but not quite there yet when it comes to being memorable or saving a spot among your favorites.

Whoever thought either of these "actors" could act? Unfunny, cotrived and forced.

It took me this long to watch this movie and only because of the reviews. The movie is actually really good for what it is. The dialogue between the 2 leads are believable, funny and down to earth, even 13 years later. The overall dialogue of the show gets a little more goofy towards the second half / last third of the movie. Would still recommend this to anyone who likes the premise and would've been worried that it would be cheesy. You might to turn your brain off a bit for the second half however.

There's just something about Steve Carrell that I really don't like. I've never enjoyed him in anything, and I normally find him extremely annoying. But here, he wasn't bad. Typical adventure romcom with all the tropes you'd expect. A pleasant enough watch, but not worth paying a lot for.
