Das Date Gewitter

(2014) Hit by Lightening COMEDY DRAMA

Written and directed by Ricky Blitt starring Jon Cryer (2 And A Half Men) as Ricky Miller and his pal, Seth (Will Sasso) seeking for love. As soon as Ricky receives a response from a dating website, he immediately falls for her head over heels over her Danita played by Stephanie Szostak with a questionable side story history.

You would think that as soon as you see an actor like Jon Creyer is in it that it, that it would be as amusing as his sitcom "Two and a Half Men", but it's like as soon as you turn on this movie, you begin to cringe, and not in a good way.

I came across this movie randomly and decided to give it a try when I didn't know what else to watch. It's a funny movie and passes the time

Well, there seems to be a real lack of decent "date" movies and/or Rom-Coms lately, so whenever I see one that looks promising, I give it a try. I really didn't know what to expect, as I'd never heard of this movie.

It wasn't exactly very believable, but hey, it's a MOVIE. However, whomever did the makeup effects on Jon Cryer should never work in Hollywood. There is a BIG difference between "Balding" and "Mange." Honestly, the poor guy looked like someone had given him a haircut with a freakin' weed-whacker. I've been around many balding men and they never look like that. Sheesh.

The premise of the movie is a knock-off of every movie where there's some pathetic loser that some "10" becomes involved with and asks them to do their bidding. This one had a twist or two, but still predictable.The characters even mention "Body Heat" as being very true to what was going on in the movie.

The character played by Will Sasso was the one I liked, but was disappointed with the most. I think the character had a chance to really run off with the movie (please?), but Mr. Sasso reigned himself in. Pity.

Overall: Not offensive. Not believable. Not high tech (thank god; I'm sick to death of those). Not particularly clever or that amusing. Did catch the jibe about Ashton Kutcher at the end. Ha ha.

We just rented this DVD, now we are going to have to buy it to rewatch again and again. This movie is hilarious from beginning to end! Jon Cryer and Will Sasso are absolutely hilarious. (Will Sasso is like David Koechner - you love every character he plays!) This film is as funny as 2 "modern" classic comedies "Rock Slyde" and "No Clue". Great cast, story, editing. Not a dull moment! Although it's a comedy, it has a mystery weaved into the story and that part will leave you on the edge of your seat! Highly recommend this movie to anyone who loves comedy and loves to laugh! Would love to see Jon and Will teamed up again!

Perfect movie and very unexpected story. I absolutely love Jon Cryer and Will Sasso, I had so nice time with.
