Date Night....a waste of a good date night....

So I saw this movie at a drive in theater tonight. Luckily it was one of three films showing tonight or I'd probably want a refund. Sorry guys...but Date Night was a one dimensional, formulaic, wanna be comedy that reminded me of why I still think they should cancel Saturday Night Live...I don't know where to begin when talking about the problems with this movie. The plot had some potential but the writing just fell flat. Tina Fey and Steve Carell....well they played themselves or their standard characters. I didn't buy them as a married couple and I felt like I was watching Tina Fey's character from 30 Rock opposite Steve Carell's character from the Office. There were several points in the movie that I felt like...wow that could have been hilarious...but it kept missing the mark. I was disappointed to say the least. Honestly, I think the highlight of this film for me was a scene where two cars are stuck together during a police chase. So...save your money and go see a really good film.
