Details

Myles is divorced in L.A. He wants a love life and a film career. So he decides to go on 20 dates and find true love in front of a camera, making his first feature. His patient agent, Richard, finds a $60,000 investor, the shadowy Elie. Myles starts his search, sometimes telling his date she's being filmed, sometimes not. Elie wants sex and titillation, Myles wants it "real." Myles regularly talks with his old film teacher, Robert McKee, who wonders if love is possible in modern life. Half-way through the 20 dates, Myles meets Elisabeth; she's everything he desires and she likes him. Can he finish the 20 dates, satisfy Elie, and complete his film without losing Elisabeth?

Reviews

Scanialara You won't be disappointed!
FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
Salubfoto It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.
Bumpy Chip It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
Andy Ash This is a movie about a guy trying to make a movie. His marriage has just ended so he comes up with the idea to make a movie about him dating 20 different girls. And if he's lucky, he gets to do his movie and find true love at the same time.With this synopsis and Tia Carrere at the box cover, I figured "this movie could be OK". Trust me, it isn't!Maybe I totally missed the point, but amongst a lot of pointless movies out there - this is the absolutely WORST movie I have EVER seen!!! I bought the DVD for 10 SEK (=$1.40) and I want my money back... enough said.
pcassel1 If you like the idea of a guy who whines twice as much as Woody Allen and is at least three times as abrasive, then this is THE movie for you. In this one, the obnoxious whiner gets the girl. Some folks comment that seeing Tia Carrera in this stinker was interesting. C'mon folks, use IMDB! She's the producer of this POS.
sweetjeska this is one movie that i wasn't sure i'd be interested, but i ended up watching it and laughing out loud. its a sweet change from the norm. i highly recommend this movie to anyone that enjoys comedies, independant movies, and/or romance. it's a great laugh, definatley worth watching more than once. i enjoyed it immensely, and so have everyone i have referred it to.
leez34 What exactly is everyone's problem with this movie? I just watched it and thought it was great - not just because of the scenes about real dating and love, but because of Myles's attempts to keep his producer and agent happy and make his first film. Two things: First, you don't need to like the lead to enjoy a movie. I liked Myles a lot, and thought he did a fine job, but have liked many movies with leads who weren't at all likable. Second: Everything in this movie seemed real to me. If there is some proof that anyone has that something was scripted or fake, please let me know. I watched it all and it seemed like an honest portrayal of one man's quest to find love and make a movie.
