Review of The Night Before (1988) by Tvnewsguido — 20 Nov 2015
Not your typical drug-fueled urban fantasy.
I can't tell if my immense enjoyment of The Night Before comes from a glitch in my SRI meds or if it is actually a great comedy but I laughed all the way through.
It's the most consistently funny entry in the Seth Rogen oeuvre in more than a few years and is surprisingly mature for the genre. That's not to say it's not loaded with sex, drugs and vomit ( it has all three) but there are layers of genuine emotion that play out as an almost Dickensian holiday fable.
If you're looking for some genuine laughs to offset the horror of your family this holiday season, this movie won't disappoint.
