Excellent, smartly written very funny sex comedy. Has none of the gross out teenage comedies type of humor. Excellent and very funny script and dialogues - there were moments that actually made me laugh out loud !! Those looking for erotic titillation move on - the themes, dialogues and settings are very adult but not erotic or softcore They are more played out for laughs - and very effectively so! There is one mildly sexy FMFM 4some scene that however quickly breaks up unexpectedly in a most funny way, in keeping with the spirit and theme of the movie. And the twist near the end of the movie - nicely done !!! Two thumbs up, definitely a must-watch!

There are a lot of cringe-worthy moments and i'm not a prude at all. The movie makes me uncomfortable at times but I really like that it explores men's body image issue, which is often ignored. Overall, this is a kind of movie that you should watch at least once. I will not rewatch it though.

Two couples (Jason Schwartzman and Judith Godrèche / Adam Scott and Taylor Schilling from "Orange Is the New Black") make a playdate which grows into something more than sipping wine and watching the children play together.Found this little indie thing in Netflix, watched it to see Scott and Schwartzman who have a habit of appearing in comedies that I like (in addition to many generic movies but whatever, I like those dudes)."The Overnight" is not really a drama nor comedy but a tale of relationships: what makes us get together and stay together.Despite the promising topic and pretty cool promos, It does not really go anywhere. There's no suspense of any kind (surely a killing blow to any movie about relationships) and the approach is too improvisational (a lot of dialogue, mostly just talk-talk-talk without any memorable lines or highlights).But hey, I saw my dudes and it's over quickly, in 83 minutes.Exec produced by the Duplass brothers which gives you strong hint about what to expect from the general vibe.Written and directed by one Patrick Brice, whose only previous movie was horror "Creep". Whatever this means.

This was a funny movie. Admittedly, not everyone appreciates this sort of quirky, dry humor, but I found it entertaining.The best part was the "Bada Bing" moment at the end. After spending the night resisting their new friend's overtures, Alex and Emily eventually agree to give in and play along. So, the next time they see Kurt and Charlotte at the park, they hint that they're now ready. But much to their surprise, Kurt interrupts them to say that he's receiving treatment and attempting to make his marriage work. So in the end, this long, uncomfortable night, was simply a long, uncomfortable night for Alex and Emily; not to mention that Kurt and Charlotte didn't even seem that interested in being friends, any longer.
