Went and saw Seth Rogen's new movie "The Night Before" because I'm a fanboy that loves stoner comedies where I can shut my mind off for 90 minutes. It did a fine job and entertaining my date and I but it was a little uneven...at points the movie breaks up the three main characters and Rogen's solo sections are WAY more funny than Joseph Gordon-Levitt's or Anthony Mackie's. In fact I wasn't too sold on Mackie's part at all and it was definitely the weak point of the film, his entire character arc was lame as hell.
Overall though it was a good comedy and certain Rogen scenes had me in stitches, definitely recommended if you like his brand of humor.
