Bill Stamets Chicago Reader 20 Dates may be unpleasant to watch, but despite Berkowitz’s icky manners and unwinning calculations, he does find true love... Rated: 2/4 Jun 16, 2022 Full Review Andrew Sarris Observer This sort of social Grand Guignol has been done to death in movies, sitcoms and stand-up routines. Mar 21, 2019 Full Review Owen Gleiberman Entertainment Weekly Rated: C- Sep 7, 2011 Full Review Cole Smithey ColeSmithey.com Rated: 3/5 Oct 10, 2005 Full Review Emanuel Levy EmanuelLevy.Com Rated: 2/5 Aug 3, 2005 Full Review Laura Clifford Reeling Reviews An intermittently hilarious, often painful and too frequently self indulgent documentary.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Its really clever! hilarious and cute. LOVED it! Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member The movie has its funny moments, altough the director departs from the initial idea, leaving the improvisation, and therefore, the film loses its originality.
