L'escorte

Of course, they will get together. That's very obvious. What isn't obvious are the reasons why the situation came to be.

Debra Messing turns to films and stars as a woman whose half sister is getting married. As a result, she hires (Dermott Mulroney) an escort to go to the wedding with while knowing that her ex-boy friend will be the best man at the nuptials. Mother of the bride is very modern as she arranges for Messing and Mulroney to occupy the same room at a hotel.(Of course, mother thinks that the two are an item.)

Amy Adams, the Oscar nominee this year for her support in Junebug, is again quite perky as the half-sister. She is loving and cute in the part until she reveals a secret that can destroy all.

The film is still predictable since love conquers all. It's light and enjoyable so go watch.

if you're going to see The Wedding Date, you probably have some idea of what the film is going to be like. it's not Shyamalan, right? of course the premise invites comparison to Pretty Woman, and sure, you may feel that you've met Messing's "insecure single woman" character a few hundred times before, perhaps on some popular sitcom.

but thankfully, all the actors seem well-suited to their roles and the action progresses quite smoothly, aided by a good helping of hysterical lines from the saucy best friend and sauced-up mother. this is definitely a fun one to see with friends, especially if you're tired of this year's pretentious and often wildly depressing Oscar fare.

I'm not a romance chick, but this was not the most unbearable thing to witness. The flipped "Pretty Woman" idea intrigued me. Execution wasn't comparable, to be honest. Still, it was not a bad movie. I found it annoying how some people were forgiven for things way too quickly or when they shouldn't have been at all. Good chemistry from the leads, particularly towards the end. Dubious consent because it's a 2000s movie, but the movie has this nostalgic charm that is typical for the time period. Why not watch? Might as well just to pass the time and look at Dermot Mulroney's smirking face. He looks like he'd ruin your life, but in a fun way haha.

To answer Canuck Girl's question from the post previous - the quote that was said a few times, in the article and by Kat's dad at the wedding was -"every woman has the exact love life that she wants". (or something very similar to that). Very true quote in deed!

I thought the movie was pretty good. It won't win any awards or anything, but it made me laugh and I was entertained for an hour and a half...what more do ya want!

I do have to say that it was a little bit similar to a few movies I've seen recently though. I could see what was going to happen next before it did. It reminded me a lot of the movie Jennifer Aniston was in "Picture Perfect" ...similar plot...she hires someone to pretend (Jay Mohr) to be her boyfriend to make someone else jealous (Kevin Bacon) and then ends up falling in love with him the one she hired. In my opinion Picture Perfect was a slightly better movie.

Critics shritics. I loved the movie. To me, this is a great romantic comedy. It has a sweet heroine and a gorgeous man who literally is the perfect guy for her. Like critics say, it was predictable. But the movie ended exactly like I wanted it to so I wasn't disappointed at all. I left my boyfriend in front of the TV drinking beer and watching the superbowl with his buddies. Hey, if men can have a fantasy world to escape in to, so can I.

Sometimes it's great to just go to the movies and escape into a romantic fantasy. I wish that every guy would see this movie because they could learn something about what women want from the leading man. It's really not that hard guys. I think this movie was the perfect escape for women who don't want to watch football.
