OwlFlavored69 Review of Night Club

Night Club (2011)

Refreshingly well written, heartwarming comedy with a few technical flaws.

[10/10 · 1 May 2011]

One of the funniest, most well written films I've seen in a long time. The story is heartwarming enough for the old and the humor hip enough for the young. Truly a film most people over 13 could enjoy, especially those who have gone through college. The acting by Ernest Borgnine, Micky Rooney and other classic actors plays as a testament to the old Hollywood greats. The only spots that need tightening up are some of the moments with the younger actors, but the overwhelming hilarity of this movie far outweighs those problem moments. The editing is at times a bit slow, but these slow moments are always counterbalanced with big payoff scenes that keep you needing to know what happens next. To avoid spoilers, I won't go into specifics, but based on my experience and the overwhelming emotional reaction during the Q&A after the film's screening, it is clear that this movie connected with old and young alike to make a film both deep in meaning and quick in wit and entertainment value. Plus, old people in their underwear. Don't pass this one up!
