This movie is too awful to put into words. Yes this movie is that bad, it's at the bottom at IMDb's movie count (bottom 100) , it's got a 2.9 rating, no story or plot and just a list of so much degenerate humor that it can't be taken seriously.
With that said, I knew what I was expecting, it was a comedy, lowbrow humor, it was going to be offensive, it was going to be politically correct, but this movie was just incredibly stupid and a time waster.
(Spoilers) You know when Julia Jones a 300 pd fat woman goes around dancing in the street like some hell possessed demon you know your even for quite a bad movie!!!
Yes that was a spoof of Shallow Hall, a movie that really does not to imitated since it was bad in itself but I saw where the writers were going, let's present some of the most tasteless situations ever: 1) A cat crapping on the toilet, 2) The chopping of body harts as the massive celluloid of Julia Jones is chopped to a trim 150 pds 3) The jokes on gays and homosexuals 4) The vomiting scene with Eddie Griffith (clown)
Directors Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer just made a messy movie that really isn't that funny and is just nauseating. There were some actually good laughs, the jokes on "Hitch" and Britney Spears were absolutely hilarious. But there's very little else to say about "Date Movie" it's not as funny as the scary movie movies, it's just flat out rude, and plain stupid. What we were are seeing is that there is a right way to spoof movies and a bad way and "Date Movie" does it really bad and idiotic.
The question I'd like to know is what possessed Alyson Hanning to do this crap? She's done some good stuff on "Veronica Mars", "Buffy", "Angel so why would she do this? Your guess is as good as mine.
To top it off the movie was not released to critics to see, so yes it got the wagging finger of shame from Roger Ebert, not that it needs it, "Date Movie" along with movies like "Havoc" are one of the more mediocre and bad movies this year and past year.
