The Night Before

Like the old adage "humor is subjective", some people love the low-brow humor in this movie, and others think it "stinks on ice".

My opinion is, it lies somewhere in between.

It is really fun to watch a pre-A List Keeanu, and watch him deal with such a crazy prom night misadventure.

But for me personally, watching a drop-dead gorgeous Lori Loughlin (not long before her stint on Full House), is the most fun. She is the definition of "80s super-hot babes".

You can catch it on cable if you're lucky. like I was.

Whats the worst thing that can happen if you watch this? A lost 90 minutes out of your life. Big whoop.

Really nice movie guys, it starts strange then unfold into this funny; but interesting story, on how he got there? Lori is stunning just as in her other movies and Keanu adds that spice to make it all a awesome movie. The plot is good Keanu suffers in the movie but just when I taught he wouldn't stay with the girl... whoops she turns out to like all the crazy mix up that has been going on. She thinks she was kidnapped??? After knowing the truth, her idea towards her hero changes radically; but then in the midst of that he becomes a hero again and well ends up with the stunning girl.

I been watching some 80's movies lately I didn't taught this one would be as good as the rest turns out I ended up watching this movies with a thumbs up. I am a picky person but this movie nails it I love it!!!

I can't possibly imagine someone thinking of Keanu Reeves as a nerd, but that's what he is in "The Night Before." The school queen, Lori Loughlin, has to go to the prom with Keanu's Winston because she made a bet with friends and lost. The chain of events that happens is wacky and hilarious, and it shows Keanu at his sweetest.

My fondest memory of this film is of watching Reeves and Laughlin dance to George Clinton's "Baby Boy." Reeves, apparently, really is a ballroom dancer, and he is elegance itself in this sequence--right up to the moment when he slips on a wet spot on the floor and falls into a table. The rest of the film is a pleasant diversion, without giving the brainpan much of a workout. It builds humorously enough on its premise--that a cheerleader can learn to love a nerd--then cruises to its inevitable conclusion. Of course, it helps when the nerd is as handsome as Keanu Reeves. Look for Tiny Lister in a small role as the bartender who slips Reeves a mickey. This one has a great soundtrack, by the way, and it demonstrates once again that Reeves is underused as a romantic lead.

A fairly good film with no real flaws. The film explores the misadventures of a prom couple winding up on the wrong side of the tracks. Think "Sixteen Candles" meets "After Hours" but sanitized for mainstream viewing. White slavery, drugs, grand theft, assault and armed robbery... it's all here, but presented in a way that keeps the spirit of those topics alive without being vulgar.

A good watch, but if you're viewing it expecting explicit scenes and jokes, then you're in for a letdown. A mildly funny film that takes a look at L.A.'s underworld through perspective of a teenage couple.

There's nothing deep about this film, but it's likable all the same, as most good hearted comedies are. There're a couple of tangentially suggestive scenes, but nothing that would prove offensive to the mainstream viewer. The comedy is light here and there, and pretty smart; it's not spoon fed to the audience.

A definite thumbs up for some light viewing.
