I watched My Date with Drew on Friday night. I’m just going to cut to the chase: This film is awful. It’s so bad; I’m kind of shocked it got the attention that it did. And it goes to show that Americans will watch pretty much anything. Hell, I hated it from the very beginning and I watched the entire thing.
The guy who made it was one of the most annoying people I have ever not met. Seriously, by the end of the film, I fantasized about beating him up. What a whiney, pathetic non-loser wannabe loser. He spent so much time trying to convince everyone that he was this big geek. Instead, he came off as some well-to-do douchebag from Long Island. I couldn’t stand the guy and I like nerds, outcasts. (What’s this new cool thing with preppy men trying to convince everyone they were once nerds in high school? I am willing to put a hundred bucks down on the fact that homeboy never hung from anything by his underwear.) He lacked creativity. He lacked nerdiness. He lacked pretty much anything interesting. He lacked a history of not fitting in. He lacked everything but chest hair. Even his douchebag friends were lame. (To the director: Why did you feel compelled to make a movie casting yourself as the star? And then why did I actually sit through your piece of shit of a film? The only loser here was me.)
Sitting through this movie was like waiting for two really ugly, uninteresting people take a really long time to have really lame, unfulfilling, bad sex. It was like watching 1.5 hours of horribly uneventful foreplay, and for what: A horribly uneventful “climax”. This film left me impotent and pissed off.
I’m so glad I didn’t pay for this.
Hello, estrogen.
oh god, thats the best last paragraph ever written
I second that opinion. It should have been straight to video. Not even foolish nerds who love Drew would get off from watching this movie.
See, I wasn’t feeling well when I watched this movie and so, at the time, I tried really hard to NOT get too, too angry with it. But, I no longer feel sick, and the more and more I think about this, the more and more I want to set up a date with “Brian” just to let him know how awful I found this movie.
That’s not to say I don’t want others who did like the movie to come forward explaining why. I’m really looking for someone to please explain to me how on Earth anyone could find this movie ”…a crowd pleaser.” or “irresistibly funny and charming.” Whoever wrote these reviews either didn’t have their TV on at the time or was bribed with barrymore boobie shots.
thats a two thumbs down then?
thanks for the warning.
oh no. have you seen her boobies lately?
yikes.
well, i saw ‘marie antoinette’ this weekend. it was an orgy for the eyes.
i have been dreaming of petit fours and pastries all weekend. sure it resembles a two-hour music video but i freaking loved it. it was like food tv or something. oh and there were shoes and clothes too. it was a barbie house come to life.
frothy, brainless and beautiful. just how i like em.
