Exactly what I wanted to see

When you are searching for movie for a funny Saturday evening and you see a comedy with Seth Rogan you can expect a paticular type of movie. And if you decide to watch this movie, you can't expect something artistic and a demanding intelligent comedy. If you expect that you will hate this movie, but then it is your own fault. From a Seth Rogan comedy you expect an easy funny comedy with a lot of party, drugs, good friendship and a lot of fun to watch. And "The Night before" gives you exactly what you expect and especially exactly what you want to see when you decide to watch this movie and you have a fun time watching it.

"She Home Alone'd me!"

I need to watch more holiday movies this month and this randomly popped up on my feed. I don't know why I didn't watch this in theaters because it was pretty funny. You can tell a lot of the jokes were improvised on the spot (which I love) and Michael Shannon might be my favorite thing about it.

A solid, silly & seasonal 7/10.

Good fun, this - it's a fairly uninspired premise overall, but the dialogue and performances are so strong it almost brings it to a realm of its own.Not funny or clever enough to be an 8, but too entertaining & powerful and understated (particularly now, in 2024 when everything is heavy handed to the point of childish) to be a 6 - as Christmas films go, it's really good. As far As films in general, it's very average and probably not massively re watchable on its own cinematic merits.That being said, I wish there were more Christmas movies of this ilk, properly for adults with heart without resorting to heavy-handed schmaltz, and a bit sweary - I guess the reviews here indicate the audience for them isn't as vast as I'd like to think (same for the brilliantly original Violent Night), but I for one would love to see a film made soon which leans into the adult energy as wholesale as this does. Too many 'adult' Christmas films lately are trying too hard to please everyone. The Night Before is refreshing and increasingly a festive staple for me, year on year.Recommend.
