"The Night Before" turned out to be an adequate comedy, and it managed to live up to whatever expectations that I had to it.
This is in, all honesty, a very generic comedy that uses a formula that has been used countless of times in other similar comedies, so don't expect anything new or innovating here.
The cast was actually the best part of the movie, and I must admit that despite the fact that I am not much of a fan of Seth Rogen in any way, then he was actually the one who stood out the most in the movie because of the drug scenes, which were also the highlights of the entire movie. And Mindy Kaling were also standing out with her performance, just a shame that she had limited time on the screen. There were also some nice cameo performances by the likes of James Franco, Miley Cyrus and Tracy Morgan. And it definitely was a shame that James Franco didn't have more on-screen time, because he was hilarious here.
"The Night Before" is a very run-of-the-mill comedy. So it is good enough for a single viewing, but it hardly has enough contents to become a Christmas classic.
