13 February 2005. With good acting and a solid script, The Wedding Date presents a great Valentine Day date experience along with the prerequisite humor and drama. This movie contributes to the romantic comedy genre and builds on its past predecessors instead of simply copies them. Debra Messing offers up a nice performance, with good timing and expressions, a nice return to the big screen. There are a few good twists, a few good dramatic moments. This light weight comedy has a decent plot...while not making a substantial dents in the way of spectacular cinema, by itself, this movie deserves the attention of the date crowd for those who need a nice diversion, a little romance, and entertainment. Seven out of Ten Stars.
