For all the hype it got I was expecting a lot more!

I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

The mixture of slapstick humour and seriousness isn't always blended that well. There is some good awkward realism though. The main guy is a beta-male dude who is generally well meaning despite being a bit fearful and judgemental. The girl is - I think - what they call a 'hot mess'. She mixes cynical and righteous anger with goofy wildness.

The actors are awake in this sleeper. This is kind of a one night stand gone awry that festers into a situational comedy of sorts and an immature path of reasoning and conversation. This film was like listed like a RomCom Dramedy, but it's more of a morality play. It's something like a 20-something smaller subset of the Breakfast Club, there are no fully functioning and mature adults in the house, done via Indie low budget minimal style. Please add some music it goes a long way in a film. It's thought evoking, with good depth and dialogue. Still I had to check the duration a few times, but there are some great scenes. I don't like the ambiguous ending, but in life that's a reality of a tense scenario. I would have preferred a film like The Night We Never Met or Addicted To Love.

A one night stand with an agenda. Both actors are excellent--combining great physical comedy with characters who are interesting and real. On the surface this is a movie about jealousy and revenge but within that shell we get to know two people who fall into the category of those that get used and one character, who is not present until the last scene, who is a master at using.As soon as I saw this i started looking for other films with Rosa Salazar. This is the only thing I found that showcases her substantial acting chops. If I'm fair Adam Pally is just as good as Salazar but being a guy I was slightly more captivated by her.If you can enjoy a movie without guns, super heroes or car chases you should check this out. You don't have to be a hopeless romantic but it would probably help.

Night Owls is a good and refreshing flick and if you already have to watch something in this genre, it might as well be the best that the genre has to offer at this time. Very strong slapstick vibe and raunchy jokes will make you forget that at its core Night Owls is a classic romance movie. And this is not a bad thing, it's just there have been so many of them and almost all of them were horrible and generic, made just to milk the audiences for more money. This one takes things in a different direction. Kevin is one those guys who just work and work, with occasional outburst intended to prove that he's still alive. This time that outburst involves Madeline, a troubled girl who likes Kevin and the two of them spend the night together. Next thing you know Kevin finds Madeline lying unconscious in the toilet...Another thing that will entertain you is the fact that the movie is happening in almost real-time. This adds more tension to the atmosphere and a deadline that you see coming as the movie progresses, making time go faster and faster. Dynamic relationship between Kevin and Madeline is the core of this movie. They transition very quickly from strangers, friends, lovers, enemies and whole bunch of other stuff, keeping the movie interesting and further examining their relationship. How do you test a hypothesis: you take it to the extreme. This time the setup was a bit extreme, but still well thought out so our characters have lot to deal with, making Night Owls a movie you should check out.
