Reviews for 20 Dates
A promising directorial debut by Myles Berkowitz.
01/01/00
Bizarre, trenchant, and unexpectedly hilarious, this is one regular guy's foray into the lonely world of love. Were that all budding relationships came out this well.
01/01/00
Had the filmmaker gone the path of the true, entertaining, and unpretentious faux-documentary, the audience would have cheered our love-starved hero along his entire journey rather than restlessly waiting for a date to strangle him with a camera cable.

20 Dates may be unpleasant to watch, but despite Berkowitz's icky manners and unwinning calculations, he does find true love.

Top CriticThe film has the obnoxious tone of a boring home movie narrated by a guy shouting in your ear.

Top CriticWhat's so disagreeable about Berkowitz is that he seems to think that his natural tendency towards egotistical self-promotion is an adorable quirk, something that you should be completely taken with even as it makes your skin crawl.

Early on, Berkowitz tells us that he has just two failings: his personal life and his professional career. By the conclusion of the movie, Myles has apparently remedied both.

I haven't laughed so much at a movie in ages.

It doesn't help that the film eventually loses its focus and has to fumble back to the real storyline at the very end.
01/01/00
There's plenty of spunk, but the high-concept low comedy drags on like the awkward dates it lampoons.

Hilarious and a must-see.

Documentary... mockumentary... it's hard to tell exactly what 20 Dates is, but I know one thing: It's hysterical.
01/01/00
A chronicle of how aspiring American filmmaker Myles Berkowitz finally came up with an idea for selling a film: He'd combine his two areas of failure in life -- trying to break into movies and trying to find a girlfriend -- into one problem.

Top CriticThis is one to put on your "to rent" video list.
01/01/00
Berkowitz is a rather annoying person.
07/21/05
Top CriticPure, unadulterated fun.
01/01/00
Whenever 20 Dates begins to establish a playful mood, it's liable to do something to make you squirm.
