Sam has a problem with his roommates: they are disgusting, and don't seem to share his views on responsibility, privacy, and basic hygiene. 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 separate 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.

Movie Reviews

Los Angeles Times - 9/10 by Kevin Thomas[A] deft and delightful romantic comedy of errors.
Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 9/10 by Dennis SchwartzI think it works for a New York dating age audience better than it does for out of towners.
Seattle Post-Intelligencer - 8/10 by David KronkeWonderfully atmospheric use of New York locations and familiar characters brings “Night” to life. Unfortunately, there are many scenes, particularly those of Anderson and his obnoxious pals, that kill time and detract from the romantic leads. Ultimately it’s not really an ensemble piece but closer to a film with alternating casts or vignettes.
Empire - 8/10 by Mark SalisburyWitty, sharp and charming, this romantic comedy is exactly what's needed when Channel 4 aren't showing repeats of Friends. All three are equally watch able, each with their own reason for renting the apartment and each very different.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) - 8/10 by Ken HankeOdd romantic comedy. Not great, but watchable.
The Hollywood Reporter - 6/10 by Jeff MenellThe Night We Never Met is never lifelike enough to evoke the madly romantic New York atmosphere it seems to be after. The actors try hard, but they are hamstrung by too many broad strokes and silly inconsistencies.
USA Today - 6/10 by Susan WloszczynaA likable but forgettable bit of fluff about mistaken identity.
ReelViews - 5/10 by James BerardinelliPeople who are addicted to romantic comedies will find something to like about this movie, with its theme of fate brining two unhappy people together. More cynical viewers will point out that nothing in this film makes enough sense to warrant such a lofty interpretation. For the most part, I agree with the latter group. The Night We Never Met is best remembered as the movie we never attended.
Austin Chronicle - 5/10 by Louis BlackBut for a film like this to succeed it must be full of humanity, overflowing with characters. This one is but they are all two-dimensional: the exhibitionist manipulative performance artist girlfriend, the insensitive and driven husband. The correct moral course is always clear, ambiguities are not entertained. In all its choices the film offers no real options. This tone piled upon the overwhelming coincidences that are supposed to drive the plot, drown whatever charm the central characters manage to generate.
User Review - 8/10 by roger tOMG,... it took them, it seems like, FOREVER to add this movie!! I've been requesting that they add it, and Somebody Has To Shoot The Picture, for more than 2 months!!! I feel kinda proud knowing that they finally added this movie bc I requested it, probably at least 8 times in more than 2 MONTHS!! Great film!
