"Date Night" stars Steve Carell and Tina Fey, as bored married couple, the Fosters, of New Jersey, who get in over their heads, when they decide to pose as other people to steal a restaurant reservation, at one of the most trendy places in New York.

The hapless couple end up stealing the reservation of a questionable couple named the Tripplehorns, who are being pursued by killers. Nice job (not). They are forced to run all over town in attempting to escape the corrupt people chasing them, which leads to even more mischief. There are some funny points in this film, but some of the jokes fell flat. It also became lewd at points, which limited its audience.
