Plot: When speaking of Laurel and Hardy's first feature film Pardon Us, Stan Laurel described it as a three-story building on a one-story base-in other words, a 2-reeler stretched and bloated into 6 reels. Much the same could be said of Blake Edwards's Blind Date, though one wonders if Stan Laurel could have even gotten two reels out of its wafer-thin premise. At the outset, yuppie Bruce Willis is warned not to let his blind date, southern belle Kim Basinger, drink anything stronger than lemonade. So what does Willis do the first chance he gets? That's right, kids; he plies poor Basinger with champagne. And then he wonders why his life rapidly goes to hell in a handbasket. In his first starring movie role, Bruce Willis manages to find all sorts of nuances in his one-note role, while Kim Basinger is very funny when she's blotto-at least, for the first five minutes or so. John Laroquette costars as a character straight out of a 1920s bedroom farce; he's also pretty good, even though his dialogue is numbingly unamusing. Blake Edwards is famous for his ability to make a lot out of a little...but there has to be a limit somewhere. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

If you enjoyed the "Moonlighting" series you will probably enjoy this movie. Bruce Willis, Kim Basinger, and John Larroqette do a fine job in this comedy. Blake Edwards directs this night of comic craziness that evolves running jokes, pratfalls, and more. Most of the movie is centered around one nights activities as Willis and Basinger go out on a blind date. If Basinger being pursued by a lovestruck Larroquette isn't enough, Basinger goes crazy after having a few drinks and totally wrecks Willis's life by disrupting his bosses party. Not to be outdone Willis decides to return the favor at Basinger's friends party. It doesn't end there but suffice it to say this is an enjoyable romantic comedy and worth at least a rental. Good quality DVD with decent replayability. If you enjoyed this catch "Overboard".

Great movie......Bruce Willis in the early years. Saw it back when it was first released, wanted it for my library. I can watch only a few movies more than once, and this is one of them.
