McClatchy-Tribune News Service Roger Moore

The saving grace of this more-rude-than-funny film are its cast. They’re just a quartet of Simi Valley “Woohooo” girls in the opening, but the players make each member of this motley crew distinct, human and out of her depth. And Janet (Flanagan)? You’ll want to party with her. Read full review

The filmmakers make sure their female protagonists constantly look immature and irresponsible, and are intent on punishing them for wanting to have a good time. Read full review

There are two scenes in Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer's Best Night Ever that work: they are screwball and goofy which, unfortunately, only serve to highlight the fun film it could have been. Read full review

Nearly every one of the film’s attempts at comedy is clichéd, tasteless, or forced—sometimes all three at once. Read full review

At best a fascinating sociological document of what happens when an all-male writing and production team portrays a girls' night out, Best Night Ever seems marketed to women but made for frat house consumption. Read full review

This witless found-footage comedy — doesn’t so much satirize its chosen genre as shamelessly rip it off. Read full review

Likely to be appreciated only by homeless viewers who need a quiet place to nap during the cold months of winter, the movie has more awkward dead space than jokes. Read full review

I didn't hate this movie as much as Disaster Movie and Meet the Spartans, but it's still bad

Best Night Ever was my worst night ever. By the same people. Screwing up again and again is no surprise, that's what they do. But one thing you have to give credit to them on---is the fact that this not a parody of another movie.

The Good: The actresses featured seemed to have a good rapport. I might have chuckled once or twice.

The Bad: Despite the rapport, the characters are cardboard cliches with no characterization at all. The film itself is a series over-the-top moments that you quickly become numb to. Just a horrible Hangover knock-off, but less believable ... if that's even possible. A candidate for worst movie of 2014 and will no doubt land on my Top 50 worst films of all time list.… Expand
