. ripoff of a dozen well film . particularly steven martin la story and which at least have the grace to be obviously fictional even though it star his then girlfriend play his girlfriend in the film . yes and naive boy and girl and 20 date be a mockumentary and although i be not absolutely certain that be myles berkowitz intent when he start . my impression be that he start the project semi seriously and then quickly realize that it would be pathetic and not funny unless he make the situation more and more ridiculous . a a result and the whole thing have an uneasy and cheap and insincere feel about it . a someone smartly point out and the film have two of the date sue and put restrain order on myles and yet they appear in the film and which would be impossible a it would require a consent form . it also appear to me that the majority of woman who appear a the date be professional actress ( albiet not famous one and except tina carrere ) they be simply too obviously pretty and polished and thin and comfortable in front of the camera to be average civilian . mr. berkowitz make a classic error in only cast this kind of very pretty thin actress and instead of utilize a variety of believable woman and which might have make the premise ( even in a mockumentary ) more believable and funnier . he also skate over what be probably his real world problem and and which be that both the movie character and the real world myles berkowitz appear to be functionally unemployed ( his real life imdb credit be practically non existent and except this film ) . even in the world of the movie and his ex wife divorce him for never be employ . i think the viewer ( let alone mr. berkowitz real life date ) be deserve of an explanation of he manage to live in one of the most expensive urban environment in the u and in a luxury apartment and drive a fancy car and eat out at pricey restaurant when he doesn not see to have any source of income whatsoever . ( be he drug dealer . live off his rich parent . no clue . ) you can get away with most anything in a film and if the joke be really funny . 20 date be painfully and embarrassingly un funny . mr. berkowitz idea of a joke be to have his character and while on restaurant date and announce to his companion how the food serve be likely to give him either diarrhea or constipation the bad kind of childish potty humor . it be not very surprising to discover that mr. berkowitz never make a film before 20 date and in the last 8 year and have not make a single film and appear a an actor in anyone else film or have a writing or produce credit of any kind . my gut instinct tell me that this film be not finance by elie ( the gangster money man who appear off camera ) but more likely by mr. berkowitz affluent parent and or perhaps represent a shocking abuse of credit card . whichever it be and we can all rest easy that we be unlikely to have to see myles berkowitz or any of his creative effort ever again . hallelujah .
