Date Movie is a 2006 romantic comedy and parody film directed by Aaron Seltzer and written by Jason Friedberg. The movie stars Alyson Hannigan and Adam Campbell in the lead roles. The movie is a spoof of romantic comedies and covers the entire spectrum of the genre. The story revolves around Julia Jones (Alyson Hannigan), a young woman who is looking for love. However, after being told by a psychic that she will die alone, she becomes obsessed with finding a man to marry before her imminent doom. Julia then meets Grant Funkyerdoder (Adam Campbell), and they fall in love. But there are a few obstacles in their way, including Julia's fear of dying alone, Grant's crazy ex-girlfriend, and Julia's father, who hates Grant.

Throughout the movie, the lovers find themselves in several hilarious situations, and the plot is peppered with references to classic romantic comedies. The two share a passionate kiss in the rain, reminiscent of The Notebook, they have a flash mob dance routine, a nod to Love Actually, and even recreate the famous orgasm scene from When Harry Met Sally.

Apart from the main plotline, the movie is also filled with several subplots that pay homage to other romantic comedies, such as Bridget Jones's Diary, My Big Fat Greek Wedding, and Meet the Parents. Some of these subplots include a woman with a stutter finding love, an overbearing mother trying to marry off her daughter, a character who always ruins weddings, and several others.

The movie also features some over-the-top parodies of popular movies such as Kill Bill, Catwoman, and Mr. and Mrs. Smith. But the movie's parodies are not limited to just movies; it also references popular TV shows like The Bachelor, Fear Factor, and Extreme Makeover: Home Edition.

The humor in the movie is crude, slapstick, and often vulgar, which is not surprising, considering the writers also wrote other parody movies like Scary Movie and Epic Movie. The film is unrated, which means it has no restrictions on its content, and therefore, some scenes might not be suitable for younger audiences.

The cast of the movie includes several famous faces, including Eddie Griffin, Jennifer Coolidge, Fred Willard, Sophie Monk, and Tony Cox. Alyson Hannigan, who is best known for her role as Willow Rosenberg in Buffy the Vampire Slayer, gives a convincing performance as Julia Jones. Adam Campbell, who plays the role of Grant, delivers some hilarious performances throughout the movie.

The movie was a commercial success, grossing over $84 million worldwide, despite receiving negative reviews from critics. The film's success led to several sequels, including Epic Movie, Disaster Movie, and Meet the Spartans, all of which were directed and written by the same team behind Date Movie.

In conclusion, Date Movie is a funny and entertaining movie that spoof's romantic comedies, and is sure to keep audiences entertained with its crude humor and parodies of popular movies and TV shows. If you're looking for a movie to watch with your friends and have a good laugh, then this movie is definitely worth a watch.
