Synopsis

Sam has a problem with his roommates: they are disgusting, and don't seem to share his views on responsibility, privacy, and basic hygine. Such is his discomfort with his living arrangements that he agrees to share the occupancy of another flat: he gets two nights a week, the owner (a sleazy frat-boy yuppie named Brian, soon to be married) and Ellen (a would-be painter seeking relief from her boring marriage) each get their seperate nights in the flat. Things go extremely well until Sam and Brian swap nights without telling Ellen, who attributes the "nice" things that happen around the place to the slob Brian, while berating the responsible Sam for his hedonistic lifestyle.

verbusen I missed the first quarter of this which I guess has a lot of Broderick working in the gourmet store, but I still really enjoyed this film. Romantic comedies are to take a date to or watch with a date, which I didn't do because I was alone at work, but a show I would normally pass when channel surfing caught my eye when I saw Broderick because I think he's great. This has a couple of really laugh out loud funny scenes but the one I really cracked up on was when the lead chick sleeps with the wrong guy by mistake. It wasn't that she had the wrong guy so much but the way the guy acted on the date, I mean to me it was hilarious! Than afterward, "can you hold me?" , he replies "What I thought we were done!" you have to see it and understand what I'm talking about but the sex involved set a speed record, just really funny and it didn't even have Broderick in it. The scenes he are in are all pretty good, he plays a great loser. He's not as much a loser as he was in Election or Cable Guy but still a great character. If your a Broderick fan this is worth watching, or if your a guy looking for a romantic comedy you could watch all the way through without cringing this one is worth seeing. I'm not sure, as others have said, its very romantic but I did find it funny. 7 of 10.
danbk3 Mildly entertaining comedy about a threesome timesharing a New York City apartment, but never meet. Broderick is the standout as a fed-up cheese clerk at an upscale grocery store.While the film itself is barely worth a watch on cable, I thought it was interesting that the movie had no less than three (3!) future Sopranos cast members in roles varying from starring (Anabella Sciorra) to supporting (Dominic Chianese) to walk on (Michael Imperioli). David Chase definitely saw potential in all of these actors, so it's sad to see that the movie really wasted Sciorra's talents...
George Parker "The Night We Never Met" tells of three people, all in relationships, who timeshare a NYC flat with a weekly rotation. The trio has not met but do get to know each other by leaving notes, phone calls, and the inevitable traces of their occupancy which, of course, leads to romance between principals Sciorra and Broderick. A cute little bit of B- fluff which is well cast with a clever premise, "Night..." muddles a little in the middle, runs a tad long, and could have ended better. Nonetheless, it's worth a look. Now on cable.
FilmChic-3 A tad different from most romance comedies. This film is light, yet contains a slightly dark edge with the subject matter.
