The Overnight Reviews
Despite flirting with some greater depths regarding marital woes, The Overnight ultimately works better as just a solid comedy with a proclivity for the bizarre;

Plenty of raunchy flicks have shown dicks before, but this one's actually got some balls.
| Original Score: B+ | Aug 10, 2021
A smart, insightful but most of all, very uncomfortable film.
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Feb 3, 2021
What does feel unique about The Overnight is the way it shows two different married couples opening up about modern sexuality, fidelity, and their desires, all of which are addressed here within their marriages and outside of them.

It's hard to empathize with Alex and Emily.

One of 2015's true indie gems.
| Original Score: 3.5/4.0 | Sep 19, 2020
Just when you expect it to go easy on the eye, it goes a peak higher. Most importantly it never goes in the direction you will want it to go.
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Jul 30, 2020
For the most part, The Overnight works. The acting is solid by all the participants, and Brice's direction is economical to the writing, never calling attention to itself.

It's terrifically interesting that the mumblecore movement continues to branch out into its own subgenres, and with The Overnight we see what a mainstream sex comedy would be like if it weren't so mainstream.

The Overnight is really, really funny. But as risque and filthy as it is, it subverts your expectations and goes smarter and deeper than you might expect.

The Overnight works because no matter how preposterous some of its moments may be...the characters and their fears do ring true.
| Original Score: 3.25/5 | Dec 3, 2019
Character-driven and with some truly funny jokes throughout, The Overnight might not stay with you until morning, but it's truthful comedy in the meantime.
| Original Score: 3/5 | May 7, 2019
Proudly crude and hilarious whilst doing so, The Overnight is a night of debauchery that will make you cringe yet unable to turn away.
| Original Score: 8/10 | Nov 2, 2018
Getting to spend some time with these three-dimensional characters, seeing the world through their eyes, was a welcome diversion from our own lives.
| Original Score: 8/10 | Aug 30, 2018
In only 78 minutes, this eye-widening, startlingly honest little movie says more about love, and the difficulties of keeping it fresh, than most rom-coms with 10 times its budget.

It's no Your Sister's Sister; Brice isn't quite as deft at pacing or revealing details as Lynn Shelton - at least not yet. The Overnight is full of promise.

The adventures in The Overnight are at once unbelievable and totally believable, and the actors create very real, very funny characters.

An unexpected delight. Effortlessly warping dark comedy and drama, with a delicious sprinkling of kink, there's much awkwardly hilarious fun to be had as boundaries are pushed and secrets revealed.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Aug 13, 2018
I can't guarantee that you'll like it. But you probably haven't seen anything else like it.

The Overnight is a funny, modern movie about boring, ancient anxieties. It's a big dick joke wrapped in a small story that's genuinely worth a listen.
