That depends on what time it is, what date it is, where you're located, and
what direction you're looking. Regardless of any details, though, I'll just bet
there are a lot more than two of them !
In Florida's western night sky, you can typically see Venus and Jupiter. These two planets are bright and easily spotted with the naked eye. Venus is especially prominent due to its brightness, often referred to as the "Evening Star".
The moving bright lights may be aircraft, satellites, or meteors. The bright points that are not stars or planets may also be galaxies, asteroids, comets, or the moons of planets.
There are several bright stars. Planets move around the Ecliptic, covering 13 constellations or so. Note that planets look like stars, but are not currently considered stars. Also note that some of the planets look brighter (to us) than any real star. Other than planets, the brightest stars are the Sun (also changes through the constellations of the Ecliptic), Sirius (Canis Major), Canopus (Carina), and Toliman (Centaurus).
We can see planets in the solar system because they reflect sunlight, making them visible from Earth. Due to their size and proximity to the Sun, planets appear as bright points of light in the night sky. Telescopes also help magnify and clarify our view of planets.
On July 1, 2015, the "bright star" next to Venus is the planet Jupiter, low in the western sky right after sunset. Last night, the two planets were as close together in the sky as they have been since the 1970's, and they won't be this close again for another couple of decades.
They are Planets - Venus and Jupiter

The Moon appears bright at night because it reflects sunlight. Planets appear bright due to the reflection of sunlight off their surfaces, as well as their own internal heat that emits light. Additionally, planets are much closer to Earth than stars, making them appear brighter in the night sky.

Jupiter
Second brightest after Venus?
extra solar planets are not bright compared to the stars they orbit
The light of the sun is too bright to make out the planets during the day unless there is an eclipse.
