In a three-star review of Saturday Night, Jordan Bassett wrote for NME: âThe film lacks narrative drive and genuine comedy, then. As it barrels towards its inevitable conclusion, though, a funny thing happens. Out of the chaos emerges a rather inspiring ode to making it up as you go along, living in the moment, saying âyesâ and hoping for the best. You may wind up with a âhalf-assed rat-fuck donkey showâ, as Dafoe fabulously seethes at one point, or you may create history. Itâs this that â just about â makes Saturday Night worth watching. As any improv comedian could tell you: stick with it and youâll stumble upon gold.â
