My Date with Drew

Any film that can make you cringe at it's honesty, laugh at it's insanity and yet follow along hook line and sinker is something special.

Functions as much as a primer on how to conduct underground filmmaking as it does an offbeat romantic comedy.

This maddening yet deftly made, and finally disarming, documentary comes through with enough heart and hilarity to sell its celebrity-stalking shenanigans to genuinely moving effect.

Indeed a wary viewer must get past the film's infatuation with celebrity culture to enjoy this movie's charms. But charms it has.

Uou may choose to read My Date with Drew several different ways -- as endearing or frightening, as bleak or expectant, as the optimistic daydream of the naïve Everyman or the beginning of a problem that could only lead to a restraining order.

Herzlinger is a flack, not a filmmaker.

Stupefyingly tedious and annoying.
