Summary: Nick & Norah’s Infinite Playlist is a comedy about two people thrust together for one hilarious, sleepless night of adventure in a world of mix tapes, late-night living, and live, loud music. Nick frequents New York's indie rock scene nursing a broken heart and a vague ability to play the bass.

Nick frequents New York's indie rock scene nursing a broken heart and a vague ability to play the bass. Norah is questioning pretty much all of her assumptions about the world. Though they have nothing in common except for their taste in music, their chance encounter leads to an all-night quest to find a legendary band's secret show and ends up becoming the first date in a romance that could change both their lives.

Critic Reviews

Lisa Schwarzbaum

So much goes down on Nick and Norah's one enchanted evening that the best advice is to enjoy the ride -- the actual ride -- around this vibrant new New York. Read full review

Joe Morgenstern

A bright little screwball comedy that speaks for the vitality of new movies. Read full review

Michael Phillips

Sollett works easily and well with Cera and Dennings, and lends a touch of awkward realism to what, from a screenwriting perspective, is pure formula. Read full review

Andrea Gronvall

Director Peter Sollett (Raising Victor Vargas) and cinematographer Tom Richmond transform nocturnal New York into a soft-focus wonderland for their sweet but screwball courtship. Read full review

Kyle Smith

It has a dogged all-night charm and a sense of who its audience is. Read full review

Elizabeth Weitzman

Every generation deserves its ultimate high school romance, and Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist clearly aims to take the slot currently open. Despite a valiant attempt, though, it doesn't quite make the grade. Read full review

Robert Wilonsky

Plays like something crafted in a lab by 54-year-old hucksters trying to sell shit to the kids under the cheerless guise of "alternative." The only thing it's an alternative to? Good. Read full review

I never written a review for a movie but I had to due to the harsh treatment this one was receiving. I felt something for the characters and that says a lot. IIt was a little cheesy at times, but thats fine, with these types of movies you have to lose yourself, it's fiction after all.

I went with some friends; we enjoyed it, and thought it was funny, and a little gross (in a good, hilarious way).

Wow, this is a normal romantic film. It's sweet but not really interesting. The 2 main characters are good, just good. The thing I love the most is the scene the girl said: "you just feel ignored for long enough and it's just nice to feel special sometimes". I see myself there. yeah, and toWow, this is a normal romantic film. It's sweet but not really interesting. The 2 main characters are good, just good.

Stay away from this one unless you're under 18. If you're over 18 just buy the soundtrack. Also, what was up with that sex scene????? Could they wear any more clothes?

An annoying film with annoying characters who shared zero chemistry.

The mentality this movie attempts to present is already played out, even before you enter the theater. Completely one-dimensional.
