Synopsis - Filmed as though it were a movie from the 50's, in black and white, and sound edited to make it sound older; 'Tomorrow Night' is the mildly funny and very depressing stories of a few people, whose incidents wind up connecting.Overview - Being a massive Louis C.K. fan I watched this movie as it really it did peak my interest. As stated; this movie is different. I mean different with a capital D, highlighted, underlined, and written in bold letters. It is something that may leave you with suicidal thoughts, okay that's an exaggeration. But it is honestly a very strange and depressing movie. Having said that, it does have some funny parts that as a Louis C.K. fan you may find funny.Story - The film quite honestly does not have that interesting of a story, however it turns out well and with (believe it or not), a twist ending.Cinematography - It's shot well and really does capture the 50's style they were going for. I want to say "God knows why Louis decided to do this", but even God doesn't know. It's a different take, which I respect, but I don't see the point. Therefore leaving me even more baffled than before.Acting - The acting is alright, nothing that will leave you jaw-dropped but a few of the characters (roughly 3 or so) are, in my opinion, extremely funny. However, they're funny because of their presentation and the way they are in the moment.Disapointments - I'm fairly disappointed that Steve Carrell didn't have a funnier role, and I was disappointed as to how unfortunately sad the movie left me (I mean actually depressed sad). Overall, the movie is only an hour and a half, as well as only $5. It's nice to see all the now famous actors in this movie as they were prior to being popular. It's also nice to see the shift in comedy that Louis has taken over the years, regardless of the similarities here and there. It's worth a watch, at least that.Ending here, I give this movie a 6.8 out of 10. I want to say that it's a seven, but I just can't. Trust me it's close, but I can't.

Louis C.K. is a bit of an idol - certainly the funniest comedian out there. I've been following him since the start of the "Lucky Louie" show, which I personally loved, but he found his perfect style with the newer "Louie". I'm aware of some of his earlier short films, which are all strange in their own way but I wouldn't say I'm a big fan of them overall. But there is no doubt that Louis C.K. returned to his earlier style with "Louie". Let's be fair, "Pootie Tang" doesn't really count (nor should it, as it was essentially being messed with without Louis C.K.'s consent). It's interesting to me to see "Tomorrow Night", his first feature now available on his website, as you can so clearly see how "Louie" could develop from that.Like many independent comedies, "Tomorrow Night" isn't about the story it has to tell, but about situations and characters. This one is about a whole truck load of messed up people. In the center is Charles. He owns a photo/camera store, he's not very social and he keeps the store very neat (so everyone automatically hates him). After noticing his stack of processed photos that haven't been picked up growing too big, he says no to new orders and starts calling the customers to get their stuff. Most of them do, and this forces him into many strange meetings. Among them are Lola Vagina (she's a sex fiend, as you might understand), an old lady who hasn't seen or heard from her son for 20 years since he went into the army, and so on.The old lady is the other main plot, and some of the funnier scenes. Her husband, father of her son, is an annoying asshole who doesn't let her do anything, constantly screams and laughs at her misery and gambles all the time. Her only friend is Tina, a very sexually open woman (played by a man familiar to many Louis C.K. fans, Rick Shapiro). Her son is stuck in the army thinking that his mother has never returned his letters, but in reality he has been the bottom of a joke for 20 years. The mail room guys are throwing his mail away while laughing hysterically (maybe one of Steve Carell's best roles, simply just laughing). Funny joke, guys! This old lady is living quite a miserable life, and Charles is soon in the middle of all that.It's hard to explain why this movie is funny and entertaining, because sometimes it doesn't even make you laugh out loud. Most of the time, actually. Yet I found it to be hilarious in an odd, "what-the-hell-am-I- watching-and-why" way. Louis C.K. does the same in "Louie", just perfected, but in that show it's also less weird. This gets very weird at times, and it honestly pleases my artsy-fartsy-surreal-like mind at times too, which is just great. Is the movie great simply because I am a fan boy of Louis C.K.? No, because I have admitted to not enjoying his shorts that much, and it took a while to get into "Tomorrow Night", but once I understood it and got into its style, I couldn't get enough. It's just bizarre!Had "Tomorrow Night" been released around the time it was made it could have been a cult hit. I don't think it can in 2014. It had a few screenings back then (apparently also in Sweden, which proves to me that we're not completely useless here) and then went nowhere, stuck in Louis C.K.'s personal archives, along with the debts to his friends that helped him make the movie. But now that it is here, I don't think it will make the mark it could have - but boy am I glad that he released it. It's fun as hell without always making you laugh, because it's just such an oddity. There's a definite proof of talent in it, both comedy- wise and strictly because it looks great. Quaint, but great - some shots are actually done with the eye of an artist, which can't be said for every comedy. "Tomorrow Night" is not only for fans of Louis C.K., it's for people who thought "Clerks" didn't have enough people sitting bare- butted in ice cream. It's so absurd that I find it hard to hate it.More reviews at FilmBizarro.com

An anal-retentive camera store manager with an odd sexual ritual, (i.e. sitting in large bowls of ice cream and masturbating) seeks a girlfriend and chooses from his customers.He befriends an reclusive old woman and soon becomes her lover.She tries to keep this from her insanely verbally abusive husband, and survives on the hope that her estranged son who has joined the military will return one day. The performances of the old couple are so bad that they are unsettlingly realistic. One can almost see the line between acting and being and wonders if this is intentional. If so, it's brilliant. If not, clever camp. I'm not sure which answer would be more disturbing.The clever ending revolves around an unclaimed package of photos. The clerk finally musters up enough courage to break the unspoken ethics code of photo shop clerks and look at the photos. Only to see they are pictures of his own murder.Very weird, which is good, but a little too boring to survive on weirdness alone.

This is a very strange movie. Louis CK's absurd characters reveal that sense of humor he employs as a Letterman and O'Brien writer. Anyone who watches this movie will never look at ice cream the same. Rick Shapiro as Tina is the funniest character in the film. Really low budget but fun. I had to admit laughing at the inanity- the son who has been out of touch for 20 years, the dog's revenge and the adopted son.
