New Trailer and Review for Date Night

Kristen Wiig has another supporting role. This time she's a friend who's getting divorced. She's not in this latest trailer, but here it is, followed by a glowing review...



To be honest, I lowered my expectations of Date Night as soon as I caught a glimpse of its groan-inducing, opening scene featuring Steve Carell wincing when a Breathe Right strip was yanked off the bridge of his nose. After all, one of the rubber-faced comic's most-memorable moments on screen was in The 40 Year-Old Virgin where he had the same reaction to having his chest hair waxed.

Fortunately, my fears that Date Night might be an unimaginative, derivative dud were soon allayed, as it was all uphill from there. In fact, this thoroughly-delightful screwball comedy turns out to be the funniest film of the year thus far.

Carell and co-star Tina Fey prove to be the perfect foils for each other's brand of humor (slapstick and tongue-in-cheek, respectively) for the duration of this road flick which keeps the pair relentlessly on the run virtually from beginning to end. The two also manage to generate just enough chemistry along the way to convince you that they're really a jaded, New Jersey couple whose marriage has gone stale.

At the point of departure, we learn that between raising two kids and draining careers which leave them with little energy by the end of the day, Phil and Claire Foster have come to feel more like roommates than lovers. And after hearing that their good friends Brad (Mark Ruffalo) and Haley (Kristen Wiig) are divorcing, they decide to spice up their relationship by having dinner at Claw, a very-trendy Manhattan restaurant.
