Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,

a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

"Blind Date" is one of the better dating shows to come on the scene in a long time. To date, my favorite dating show was "Love Connection", but "Blind Date" comes in at a close 2nd. It's a lot better than shows like "Studs", "The Fifth Wheel', "Elimidate" and the worst one of all "Shipmates". One thing that I've noticed on this show is the candidates that they choose for dates. I don't know where they get these people from! A lot of them just seem to be looking to get some booty. You would think that this would be happening with the young daters, but it seems to be right across the board, even with the older people. I know that most of the Producers of these shows love it when couples don't get along. This makes for better ratings and is more entertaining to the viewer...or so they think. It would be nice if some of the couples really connected, and not just for one night. In past episodes, when they do a follow-up on previous daters, none of them have lead to marriage, or even a long term relationship. Most of the follow-ups have been the same scenario. The couple will maybe go on a few dates after wards, then something comes up and the dating stops. The other point I've noticed, a few times, are the people that go on the show and they are already in a relationship! I assume they are thinking that some talent scout will spot them on the show, and make them a movie or TV offer. Guess what? That is not going to happen. To me, they end up making fools out of themselves when they do this. The other point it could be is that they are looking for the elusive BBD (Bigger & Better Deal). This is fine, but do they have to go on national TV and make a fool out of themselves? The host of "Blind Date", Roger Lodge, is funny. His sarcastic comments and facial expressions are priceless. He is no Chuck Woolery, but he does make the show fun. What really makes this show entertaining are the thought bubbles, and the animated characters that come on screen to show what the daters are really thinking. The "Fifth Wheel" tried doing this too, but "Blind Date" does a better job with it. Even though most of these dating shows seem to follow the same formula, "Blind Date" is entertaining and a lot of fun to watch.

If you like to watch a show that confirms the utter hopelessness and emptiness of dating, and how dating brings out the absolute worst in people, then this is the show to watch. This show is about how men and women play games with each other and how dating is the ultimate waste of time and is utterly devoid of any redeeming social value except as proof of the hypocrisy associated with people trying to assert their dominance through devious means. The men are invariably portrayed as fools as they try to play up to the women who are arrogant, self-centered and manipulative and absolutely not worth the effort. This show is further proof that money cannot buy love as the men take the women to fancy restaurants where they engage in meaningless talk which sets the stage for the woman's rejection of her hapless companion. On this show every man is portrayed as awkward and socially inept while the women are portrayed as self-centered man-haters who basically have no use for their dates except to use them as a means of acting out their contempt of men.

I have seen this show several times, and it amazes me how shallow and superficial some of these people are. I saw this one guy tell his date that "you're not pretty enough to be with me!" right to her face! When tact was being handed out, this guy must have been combing his hair or flexing his muscles. I thought I had seen it all, until I saw another episode when one particularly attractive young woman jumped into a cab during her date, and the man literally chased the cab on foot yelling "We can work it out!" My goodness, don't you have any pride! These people can't be serious....wait, maybe they are!In any event, "Blind Date" is a cool show, so if you're up around 1am, check it out!

Apparently the premise of this show is to illustrate how smug, egocentric, self-centered, and materialistic 20-somethings are. If that's the case, it succeeds beyond its wildest dreams. Planned Parenthood should use episodes from this show as training films; the moral would be, "If you have kids, they might turn out like this!" The men--for lack of a better word--are invariably totally obsessed with their bodies; many of them take their "dates" to a workout at their gym. They then spend most of the date strutting, preening and bragging about their sexual prowess, and can't understand it when the women don't laugh at, or even get offended by, their smarmy, juvenile attempts at double entendre. The women don't come across much better, either. They're either simpering bimbos or arrogant, balls-to-the-wall barracudas determined to show the guy who's boss and take control of everything from the get-go. If this is an example of the generation that's going to take over from us, then we're in worse shape than I thought.
