Darrin Dewitt Henson's portrayal of Wesley was undoubtedly the highlight of the movie "It's a Date". His charisma and distinctive raspy voice made him a compelling presence on screen. Unfortunately, he had more chemistry with London, who turned out to be a villain, than with Anastasia, who was supposed to be his love interest.

The plot of the movie felt lacking, particularly when it came to the romance between Anastasia and Wesley, which didn't materialize until the final five minutes. The ethical dilemma of Anastasia dating a client was an interesting concept, but it wasn't executed well. In fact, it was barely addressed outside of the movie's description and synopsis. The romance felt forced and lacked build-up or tension.

The movie attempted to be humorous, but unfortunately, it fell flat. The montage of bad dates for Wesley, a typical trope in romantic comedies, didn't land due to the leads' lack of comedic timing. However, I did appreciate that the movie explored a workplace romance, one of my favorite tropes. It's great to see successful Black professionals represented on screen. Anastasia, however, was terrible at her job, and I was relieved when Wesley called her out on it. On a positive note, Dalton and Tony made a cute couple.

Overall, while "It's a Date" had some promising elements, it ultimately fell short in its execution.
