What Late Night has going for it is the charisma of its two leads, Mindy Kaling (who also writes) and Emma Thompson, two diametrically opposed characters that bring the film to life when they’re butting heads. The rest of the time, though, the movie goes languid and sort of rolls forward until the next beat.
