Steve Carrel and Tina Fey are glorious in Shawn Levy’s new comedy “Date Night.”

Upon arriving at a nice restaurant with a hot date in tow and finding out there are no available tables, would you be tempted to steal another couple’s reservation?

Such a predicament is exactly where Phil and Claire Foster (Carell and Fey) find themselves in their newest comedy “Date Night.”

Carell and Fey are outstanding in the funny flick released on April 9, in which they portray a couple whose marriage has become lackluster due to the routine of caring for their kids and working at their tiresome jobs.

In a spontaneous decision to go on a special date night to add some fire to their exhausted love lives, the Fosters find themselves in for more than an expensive candle-lit dinner.

Director Shawn Levy brings writer Josh Klausner’s clever story to life by sending the couple on an action-packed adventure through Manhattan in a case of mistaken identity. Phil and Claire Foster are forced to find the real Tripplehorns, the couple whose identity they assumed to get the coveted reservations.

The entertaining duo encounter several characters along their journey, including Holbrooke Grant, a shirtless and attractive ex-investigator played by Mark Wahlberg, and James Franco, who plays a character named Taste, the real dead-beat the cops should be after.

Other stars that contribute to the film include Taraji P. Henson, a determined, curious police officer and musician Common, who plays detective Collins.

The chaos-filled night is studded with entertaining jokes, as the couple realizes that their marriage is stronger than ever and that such a night was just the ticket they needed to repair their boring and ordinary relationship.

Although it is difficult to compete with his witty lines and hilarious anecdotes as boss Michael Scott in “The Office,” the Carell is side-splittingly funny in “Date Night,” where Fey’s untouchable humor complements his style.

The movie is reminiscent 2008’s successful blockbuster “Get Smart,” where Carell excelled as clumsy Maxwell Smart, or Agent 86, alongside co-star Anne Hathaway.

The movie’s title is anything but misleading and offers an ideal solution to any date night, presenting numerous moments of sharp hilarity.

Stellar performances by both Carell and Fey are sure to leave a lasting smile on any moviegoer’s face.
