3/10
Fun premise ruined by a weak script
27 January 2021
David Niven was clearly having fun playing a right cad and a bounder in this outing but at 90 minutes in length "Tonight's the Night" is about 60 minutes too long. Niven plays a completely unlikable squire who riles the Irish townsfolk to the point where they all plot his murder, unfortunately, the residents are about as incompetent as they are funny. With such a talented cast on hand it's a shame this movie boasted nary a good performance -Niven may have been having fun with the part but he's not all that funny in it - and the rest of the cast are such an unlikable lot that we have no idea who to root for.
