Where was the comedy?, 7 February 2011
Author: Paul Haakonsen from Denmark

This movie was labeled 'comedy'? Why? I sat down to watch "Speed-Dating" without having heard anything about it previously. So I watched it with a clean slate and no expectations. However, I was bored senseless throughout the movie and there weren't really that many laughs.

The story is fairly straight forward though, as you have a group of young people setting up 'speed-dating' events at their club, in order to meet and hook up with women. Sure, sounds plausible enough, but it came off as a weak result.

What was one of the more funny things in "Speed-Dating" was the tranny at the event and also the guy who rarely got to sit down and talk with the ladies. Most of the other characters in the movie were lacking personality and failed to shine on the screen. And that made the movie a rather dull and colorless experience.

The cast in "Speed-Dating" was good enough, though no major names here. I think I only recognized Chris Elliott and Holly Robinson Peete here, to be honest. The people in the movie were doing adequate jobs, but no one were memorable.

"Speed-Dating" failed to impress me and didn't leave any lasting memory at all. It was, for me, the type of movie that you watch once and it will fall into oblivion. For a comedy movie it failed to pack any good punchlines, failed to crack laughs, and failed to be interesting. If you are in for an evening of comedy and fun, you are better off with another movie.

I am sure there is an audience for "Speed-Dating" out there, I just wasn't the target audience for it.
