Film Review: Date Night
Title: Date Night
Year Of Release: 2010
Review Date: January 31, 2011
Rating: PG-13
Running time: 87 minutes
Box Office Gross: $152,263,880
Site Rating: 3 out of 10 stars
"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.Wednesday, September 2, 2009
Film Review: Baby Mama
Title: Baby Mama
Year Of Release: 2008
Review Date: August 31
Rating: PG-13
Running time: 99 minutes
Box Office Gross: $64,275,411
"Baba Mama" is co-penned by and starring "Mean Girls" writer, Tina Fey. The movie is about a successful 38-year-old female executive, desperate to have a child, but believing she waited too long and is infertile, resorts to a surrogate, who unbeknownst to her, has been poorly screened by an agency she paid a $100,000 fee.
Instead of a suitable applicant, she is sent a kooky, ill-tempered, crass, unsophisticated woman, who is the common law wife of a simpleton that emotionally abuses her, whilst engaging in affairs.
Fey's character, is a competent, corporate executive that works for an organic food company, headed by an aging hippie, who believes in irrational and zany concepts no one else understands, but him.
Fey, a meat eater, pretends to be a vegetarian to make her bizarre, tree-hugging-howling-at-the-moon boss happy.
This film expresses the concerns many career women face regarding childbearing. It also pokes fun at the new age movement and the unreasonable, irrational conduct that accompanies it.
However, it is not exactly a family film or one I'd recommend, due to the vulgar surrogate couple.
