Average Rating:6/10

Consensus: A love-it-or-hate-it stalkerazzi documentary, My Date With Drew effectively draws on America's celeb-obsessed pop culture so that viewers either unabashedly identify with it, or are filing restraining orders on Drew Barrymore's behalf.

Rated: PG [See Full Rating] for mild thematic elements and language

Runtime: 90 mins

Genre: Education/General Interest

Theatrical Release:Aug 5, 2005 Limited

Box Office: $85,222

So now it's 20 years later and he figured since she hasn't come knockin' on his door, he's gonna have to make the first move. Problem... She's Drew Barrymore! But wait, it's not as crazy as you might think. See, Brian figured he'd combine his two great passions in life - making movies and Drew Barrymore - and document his quest to meet Drew. That way he will represent the "everyman", and his quest will seem noble... instead of just desperate. Next problem... Brian is completely broke. And he doesn't even own a video camera to make this documentary. Fortunately, he recently won $1,100 on a game show! So he figured it must be fate. He will use this cash prize to seize the moment and pursue his dream. And as it turns out, you don't even need any money to buy a video camera these days, thanks to Circuit City's 30-day Return Policy. So he grabbed a friend's credit card and picked out the most expensive camera in the store, knowing he will have to finish his documentary before the camera has to go back. So now Brian has 30 days and $1,100 to get a date with Drew Barrymore. Armed only with steadfast determination and an uninsured video camera, Brian will summon the powers of the "Six Degrees of Separation", figuring he must know somebody who knows somebody who knows somebody who knows Drew. Don't worry, it's not like he's expecting a relationship or anything. He's just talking about one dinner here. Heck, the girl's gotta eat, right? This is a movie for anyone who's ever imagined getting a date with the person of their dreams…and then realized they don't have a chance in hell. But despite the odds, Brian finds encouragement in the words of Drew Barrymore... "If you don't take risks, you'll have a wasted soul." So with your help and a little bit of luck, Brian will succeed in his quest and "My Date with Drew" will inspire moviegoers everywhere to follow their dreams. -- © Drew Crew, LLC [More]

An accidental commentary on the difficult task of initiating genuine human interaction through a seemingly impenetrable and guarded web of Hollywood connections.

Not only is that message loud and clear but the movie is also funny, exciting and awkward as we literally go through every emotion with the extremely self-conscious Herzlinger.
