Review of Take Me Home Tonight (2011) by Ydnar4 — 24 Nov 2015

Take Me Home Tonight was a movie that actually shot in 2007 but because of the consistent cocaine use the film was shelved until 2011 which is kind of too bad because the most notable stars in the film kind of lost their star power during that period.

Topher Grace was coming off That 70's Show in 2007 but really never had a truly strong role during the time period. Grace had a lot of involvement including crafting the story and producing the movie.

The cast is loaded with other great actors in comedy including Anna Faris, Chris Pratt and Michael Biehn. However it is the young Teresa Palmer that really steals the scenes that she is in. Still Take Me Home Tonight is an underwhelming product.

The 1980's is captured pretty well with the setting and the soundtrack but it is still a clichéd rom-com that really has nothing new to offer. There is very little humour and the story is just so generic that it is almost immediately forgettable.
