The Wedding Date (2005)
In this romantic comedy, Debra Messing plays Kat, a never-married New Yorker, who is invited to her younger sister's wedding in London. What should be a joyous occasion bodes disaster for Kat, however, when she discovers that the best man will be none other than her ex-fiancé. In a desperate attempt to face the ordeal with dignity, Kat hires Nick (Mulroney), a charming and handsome professional male escort, to pose as her new boyfriend and escort her to the wedding. (Universal)

Exactly what you'd expect... a bad, mostly unfunny, and completely cliché rom-com.The main romance is not believable. Not really worth the time to leave a detailed review.

The worst film I have ever been dragged to. But I suppose someone managed to get the colour balance right. And they did convince 'actors' to be in it. And got money to make it. Well done them.

A career woman hires an escort to pose as her boyfriend at a wedding to make her ex-fiance jealous. Gee I wonder how this ends...

absolutely mediocre in every way - and completely unrealistic in terms of depicting human relationships. I mean I know romantic comedies aren't really supposed to depict reality, but this movie didn't even try and as a result just seemed absurd and ridiculous.

Cute, and sweet, and fun. Debra Messing does great and is a pleasure to watch.

Embarrassingly, I thought Messing's expressions, timing and energy made this (almost gender-reversed Pretty Woman) strangely enjoyable.

I was filling my time with wife (with the other eye). Dermont did his part okay. I did not expect anything big, since it reminded of millions of others.

Actually, better than I expected. But still pretty fucking awful. Why/how Debra Messing has any career in acting at all is a complete mystery to me.

Entertaining, but just as every romantic comedy way to predictable. It is funny at times, but the dramatic part is a bit over the top and they tried a too hard to make it an especially happy end as always.

Knowing the outcome before the opening credits finsished I knew my wife had once again ruined part of my evening, at least she enjoyed it...small comfort.

Oh, I just loathe Debra Messing. And, this tepid, insipid film does nothing to mitigate that loathing. Ugh.

I don't know why Hollywood keeps regurgitating the same romantic comedies on us over and over, maybe because overweight middle-aged women like these with their Ben and Jerry's.

This movie is a little bit over the top, but the acting is solid and it turns out much better than I expected.

This was a tough movie to watch. Its painful on my mind and eyes. The girl falls in love with a gigolo. I still haven't found a movie that I liked Debra Messy in.

Borring, predictable, not funny. Even my girlfriend thinks this is borring. So figure it out!

Predictable, but still slightly entertaining. Although as a guy, I actually felt myself wanting to leave the woman an never call again. And I'm not a jerk in real life, honest!

Cute but kind of lame. Has a funny pace; it aims more at slow and sophisticated, which works OK. Ultimately, I couldn't buy the romance but my wife loved it.

The only conflict that will arise during this whole bland affair will be the debate about which is the biggest waste of money -- hiring a $2000 male escort or whatever cash you shelled out to see a movie this insipid. [Full Review]
