Christian Dating is a romantic comedy movie made in 2009, directed by Wyatt Cagle, and starring Greg Castle, Preston Vanderslice, and Mylinda Royer. The movie features a young man named Wyatt who desires to find true love but is struggling to do so. The story begins with Wyatt walking out of a church service feeling disillusioned with his romantic life. He is joined by his best friend, Matt, who, unlike Wyatt, has an active love life with a girlfriend, Rachel. Wyatt feels left out, and Matt, seeing his friend's frustrations, takes it upon himself to help him find a suitable match.
The two men decide to use Christian online dating platforms to find women they can connect with. With Matt's guidance, Wyatt creates a dating profile that almost seems too good to be true. As the two men embark on this dating journey, they run into various unforeseen challenges that make the process far more complicated than they initially thought.
Wyatt soon learns that the virtual world of Christian dating is not always what it seems. He meets women who turn out to be completely different from what their profiles suggest, which challenges Wyatt's view of online dating. However, when he meets Erica, he feels like he has finally found the one. Erica is kind, fun, and, most importantly, shares Wyatt's Christian faith.
As things heat up between Wyatt and Erica, so do the complications in their lives. Wyatt struggles with the pressure of navigating a new relationship while also trying to balance his work and social life. Erica also has her own challenges that prove to be a stumbling block in their relationship.
One of the standout moments in the film is when Wyatt, Matt, and Rachel go on a double date to a fancy restaurant. The date does not go as planned, and things become awkward when unexpected guests show up to the restaurant. However, Wyatt, Matt, and the two women make the best of the situation and end up having a good time.
Christian Dating explores themes such as faith, love, and friendship, all set against the backdrop of modern dating. It is a lighthearted and at times, a comical look at the struggles that both men and women face when trying to find love in the online world.
The acting in the film is exceptional, with Greg Castle delivering a standout performance as Wyatt. He manages to capture the character's sincerity and vulnerability in a way that is both authentic and charismatic. Preston Vanderslice and Mylinda Royer also deliver solid performances as Matt and Erica, respectively.
The film does well in balancing comedic moments with more serious themes. It explores the idea that while online dating may be a viable option, it does not come without its share of challenges. It highlights the importance of having faith and not giving up on love, even in the face of adversity.
Overall, Christian Dating is a well-written, well-acted, and entertaining movie that is suitable for audiences of all ages. It is a wholesome and heartwarming film that explores the complexities of romance in the modern world, all while staying true to its Christian values.
