Review of Blind Date

Blind Date (1987)
8/10
Great Performance from many cast members
17 March 2008
I saw this film for the first time last night and I thought it was really funny and the performances were very good overall. (I missed it when it was released because it I was unemployed when it was released theatrically.) This film was panned by writers left and right and I'm really sorry that I took their word and didn't check it out for myself. Excellent comedic set-ups by director Edwards. It has terrific performances by Willis and Basinger. They have great on-screen chemistry and both handled the physicality of their roles in an outstanding manner. I hope that this movie gets rediscovered someday in the future. There appears that there was some heavy handed editing, because the cause and effect of the supporting characters behaviors isn't spelled out with some of the supporting cast.
