Load of rubbish!!

In other words,this film is a surreal ride.

It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

This is one of the funniest movies I have ever seen! People who have written negative reviews must not have a sense of humor or they are so politically correct that they cannot laugh anymore. The actors were outstanding, particularly Alyson Hannigan and Eddie Griffin. The humor is quite bawdy, true, but I like movies that are just plain silly, so if you like the airplane movies, or the police squad movies or the scary movies series or The Three Stooges then you will love this movie. I have seen it several times and it still makes me laugh so hard that I have tears in my eyes. I highly recommend this fine viewing experience to anyone who wants to have a seriously hard laugh. Pay particular attention to the basketball scene, the girl with the fat butt, the removal of blubber, Eddie Griffin's eyebrows, and the cat. Don't let the stuffed shirts who gave negative reviews of this movie stop you, I guarantee you will laugh throughout the entire movie!!! And that's why I give it highest marks 10 stars!!!!

I only watched because of Alyson. I didn't like this at all, but I don't generally like spoof movies. This is not what I generally like to see my favorite actors in. There are a lot of scenes that were gross and was very predictable with all the scenes and plots. I guess that is what spoofs are all about. This one was particularly bad. There was nothing new or redeemable about it, but I am sure redeemable isn't the point. I am surprised it only received one Razzie. Carmen Electra wasn't the worst of this film. I didn't change the channel like I really wanted to just to say I did give it a chance. I can't say there was one scene that I liked throughout the entire movie. I hope these actors will make better choices for roles in the future.

This movie is not as good as the Scary Movie spoofs, but better than for instance Epic Movie. Date Movie is also a sublime masterpiece compared to Pearl Harbor, the most horrifically bad movie in the history and future of the entire Universe.I read a few of the other reviews before I watched the movie, and I felt that the general opinion (and rating) of this movie is a little too harsh. It really isn't *that* bad.Movies like this are generally made as super light comedies: a series of sketches rather than a movie with a plot. That is what you should expect, and if you want more you will just be disappointed.If you are looking for something to stimulate your intellectuality, then perhaps you should try books instead? May I suggest philosophy, or perchance mathematics?If you are looking for ~80 minutes of light humor and a story you barely have to pay attention to, and you enjoyed the Scary Movie series, then this should be a decent choice. I laughed a few times through it. :)

In 2006, the public was introduced to Aaron Seltzer's newest parody comedy film, "Date Movie." The parodies include such hits as "Hitch", "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" and "Meet the Parents." The film stars Alyson Hannigan of "American Pie" fame and Eddie Griffin as her Greek father. In a series of parodies, "Date Movie" is essentially a romantic-comedy of sorts where the girl falls in love with the guy, meets his parents, and they get married. The best parodies are that of "Napoleon Dynamite" towards the end of the film and a parody of Owen Wilson's broken nose.As funny as a film as it is, many critics agreed that it was the bottom of the barrel of films released in 2006. I would have to give this film a 5 of 10!! It could have been better.
