Una noche con mi exsuegro

The story: Emily Hirsch is a total f9ck up who fails at everything. His girlfriend breaks up with him and she suddenly disappears afterwards. The father (brilliant role by J. K. Simmons) starts searching for her.

The good: excellent acting performances, which are constantly witty and surprising. Lots of hilarious twists and turns. Simply a good fun movie about a search for a daughter, which turns into a rollercoaster disaster hunt!

Any bad? Cant think of any. Enjoy the ride!

I loved this movie. I could see why the dad didn't like the boyfriend in the beginning. And then it made me want to find out how they dealt with one another through the night. This movie got shitty ratings on rotten tomatoes but like all good movies it had my attention from start to finish. It was a fun adventure and I loved it the entire time. I rented a movie yesterday with a 90% rating and I couldn't even finish it so the current rating system has to change. I loved this movie, the actors, the story, and it made me feel awesome. That should be all that matters. Death to Rotten Tomatoes!!!

This film was something unexpected. I am a fan of almost all the actors in the film but I loved the chemistry between Hirsch and Simmons. I thought the film was well paced and well acted and It's one film i can watch again (as I have). The direction was great and I love the fact the a young man who is heartbroken is able to live through the past of his love even though broken but he finds himself and he gets to know his ex better than he knew her when they were dating. I loved the film, I thought it was awesome.

I admit it. I've become a sucker for J. K. Simmons. I like him in just about everything he's in. And that's nice, because he does a lot of 'smaller' films, and I really like smaller films. 'All Nighter', is one of those. There's nothing 'big' happening here, just the story of two (mostly) unconnected people, who unexpectedly come together to go looking for someone. That someone is Ginnie; the daughter of one, and the former girlfriend of the other.

So what is 'All Nighter'? A comedy? A quest? A buddy movie? A heart tugger? Yes . . . . kinda. I suppose it's all those things, but then again, not really any of them. Like I said earlier, it's one of those 'small' movies about a small event in the lives of a few (mostly) ordinary people. No Super-Heroes, no special effects, and ultimately, nothing all that life-altering. At least on the surface. In the end, 'All Nighter' is really just a story about the need for connections in life. How being involved with those around us is the only meaningful currency we can use to measure our own wealth.

Hirsch or Simmons, and usually both together, are onscreen for almost the entire film, and their evolving relationship was enough to keep me interested. It's not the most original of stories, but that's okay. Sometimes a film doesn't need to be, so long as you enjoy spending the next 90 minutes with the people in question. And in this case, it worked out well enough.

Great actors doing their thing. Great casting and story.
