    A Fantastic Film!

    What a delightful movie. I laughed, I cried, and I recommended it to all of my friends. It reminded me of MOONSTRUCK.

    The directing was spot on, and Michelle Danner did an excellent job weaving an emotionally enticing story that really focused on the relationships between the characters.

    I was equally impressed with the acting and thought that this was a great role for Jason Alexander. Rob Estes and Brian Drillinger were also great additions to the cast and I found them both really entertaining.

    I would highly recommend this movie to anyone out there looking for a great film to discover.

    Triple Threat!

    Wow! I'm kicking myself for just now seeing this film. It was delightful! I just watched it with my boyfriend. We couldn't stop laughing. The acting was superb! I ADORE Jason Alexander and all of the characters he brings to life on screen. This film is another great credit to add to him resume.

    It is a breath of fresh air to see a movie of this caliber. It is well written and dynamically directed. Kudos to Michelle Dannon for being a triple threat. As a producer, directer, and actor she proves that women can take over Hollywood. I tip my to her. This is sure to be a classic. I highly recommend you see it.

    Unique, a great mix of genres

    My boyfriend and I enjoyed this star-studded films, with strong performances from the actors, even the smaller supporting roles.

    I love all the comedic moments with the splash of cute romance.

    I am a little confused why people are complaining about the performances. Rob Estes was hilarious and his freak-out scene in the restaurant made us laugh so hard.

    As an actress, I know how hard comedy is to block out and nail down the specifics for, and then act as though everything were unplanned and react spontaneously. The cast really succeeded in surprising me (and it looked like themselves too, which is a delight to get to watch).

    Highly Recommend

    I just rented How to Go Out on a Date in Queens and was not at all disappointed. If you are looking for a good movie that succeeds in combining humor and drama, this is the perfect film for you. Although the undertones were funny, that did not at all take away from the poignant ending. One aspect of this movie that I enjoyed was how it forced you to really think about the relationships humans have. The message is delivered smoothly and effortlessly by Michelle Danner, who directed in, starred in, and produced How to Go Out on a Date in Queens. Renting this movie is a definite must; everyone who does not is missing out on a satisfying piece of entertainment.

    Interesting role for Jason Alexander

    Being a huge fan of the Seinfeld series it seemed only natural to want to see this movie staring Jason Alexander as soon as it was out. I didn't quite know what to expect of it but I wasn't surprised to find it to be a good movie. It's about the dating world with its ups and downs and it makes a strong case in the end. It was nice to see a movie really about something and who's producers and also the actors staring in it certainly weren't interested in just the money. It's not a commercial movie but that doesn't make it just on bit less interesting. Jason Alexander's role is a lot different from what he did in the Seinfeld series but he pulled it of in a true Hollywood star's manner. Him staring in this movie is what made me see it in the first place and I can say it's a great movie. Really really worth seeing! 8/10 for this one.
