Dreadfull yes, but no worse than I expected, that's how low/high my expectations.
The real head-scratcher about this movie is that it parady's comedys, when Airplane came out its whole coup-de-grace was its mickey taking of serious genre movies, in paticular the Airport and disaster movies of it's time.
Date Movie spends almost 15 minutes of it's short running time almost re-enacting entire scenes from the 'Meet The Parents' films, and then throws in some spoofs of 'When Harry Met Sally', 'Say Anything' and the pants in the sink gag from 'Planes,Trains And Automobiles'!! (really topical stuff there guys)
Saving graces?
Well there are a few amusing moments, but the trouble is, that for every good gag you get dozen or so off target.
Oh, and Alyson Hannigan does look so cute.
