Instead of sinking into crude, one-night-stand joke territory, Night Owls roots around for the spark of real chemistry and, in the winning turns of Pally and Salazar, finds it. Read full review

The execution here is impressively adroit, with a clever script enlivened by two charmingly compatible lead performances from Rosa Salazar and Adam Pally. Read full review

The film has more in common with 1930s screwball (films filled with obvious coincidences) than the more clunky, often-humorless films that pass for "rom-coms" today. Read full review

The performances are so crackling that you can imagine Ms. Salazar and Mr. Pally, given richer material, becoming a slapstick comedy team: the spitfire and the nerd. Read full review

Charles Hood's Night Owls is a mostly satisfying two-hander that never quite lives up to its full potential. Read full review

The movie takes quite a few liberties with its initial set-up and premise and most of the dialogue isn't all that captivating, but it may still satisfy those looking for a slightly more profound rom-com fix.

This movie is dead after 17 minutes and does not pick up again. It 's a complete bore, childish acting.
It is 90 minutes long boring conversation between 2 people having had
a one night stand, in the house of the dude's boss.
Wow what a ridiculous story line.
Sorry, movie is the wrong medium.
