As Jonah Weiner mentions in his New York Times review of the film:
In “Date Night,” which opens Friday, a bored suburban couple played by Steve Carell and Tina Fey go on their weekly dinner date and find themselves thrown into a night of intrigue: there’s breaking and entering, a car chase, a shootout and a showdown with an underworld boss at a strip club. Husband and wife come out of the adventure with some scratches and also with their ardor renewed.
From the first time I saw the preview for Date Night Movie, I knew this was a film that I would enjoy. How can it be bad with stars like Steve Carrell (from "The Office") and Tina Fey (from "30 Rock" and formerly from "Saturday Night Live")? The film follows the spirit of action comedies like "True Lies", a film a can still watch over and over again and still roll on the floor with laughter. While I've enjoyed Tina Fey since her SNL days, I only recently came to appreciate Steve Carrell. My oldest was a poor sleeping infant when "The Office" first came out. I never quite got the chance to get hooked on the show until it hit late night re-runs this year. This duo sounds like a great match to me.

Better yet, check out the film itself at a theater near you starting Friday, April 9th, 2010.
See you at the movies! And don't forget, hit the matinee for a cheaper rate!
