Das Date Gewitter

So likable that you cannot kill it? Talking about the movie of course ... or am I? Of course I am, but what do I mean? Enough of the cryptic talk and on to the meat. Especially if you haven't seen the movie yet, I'm not going to spoil anything. Although it's not like there are too many big twists in this.

The characters in this are pretty neat and they are played by actors who have as much fun as they could have. And that does somehow translate onto the screen. The script itself isn't really that good, that it'd deserve a 5 out of 10. So the acting and the direction is saving the movie a bit from being a complete disaster. Nice comedy, nothing more, nothing less

Ricky Miller (Jon Cryer) is a pathetic, balding manager of Debbie's restaurant in LA. Seth (Will Sasso) is his scheming sleazy idiot friend. In frustration, he prays to God for him to find his soulmate before he's hit by lightning. Out of nowhere, he gets a pop-up ad from E-Happily and is matched up with the perfect Danita (Stephanie Szostak). He falls completely in love. She tells him about her abusive husband and convinces him to kill him.

I miss Duckie and I never liked Two and a Half Men. This is somewhere in the middle. Ricky is pathetic and some of Seth sleaziness does rub off on him. He's not the most appealing rom-com lead. Szostak is a beauty but she doesn't have the edge to be a femme fatal. That character could generate more laughs as a noir femme fatal. She's too nice to be mean. Seth is too much of a douche without the humanity. None of the attempted comedy is that funny.

(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.

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

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!
