Sight Unseen: February 4, 2005

Continuing the Friday series of reviews of movies I haven't seen.

Boogeyman
I wish this was a Prince concert documentary, but it isn't.


The Wedding Date
Weddings scare a lot more people than the Boogeyman. My first impression of this flick's title was: romantic romp about the calendar date of a wedding and the zany events leading up to the big day. Turns out this movie is either Deuce Bigalow 2 with wedding bells or a reverse Pretty Woman. Dermot Mulroney takes over the Rob Schneider/Julia Roberts role as Debra Messing's "escort". I picture Debra guzzling champagne at the reception and thinking, "Did I pay too much for this gigolo" alternating with "I wonder what stuffing an extra 20 quid in his cummerbund will get me." A word of advice Debra, he may be Dermot Mulroney, but he's still a male escort. So "put a sock on the pickle" or "3 days later, go see the doctor".
