Blind Date

Actors: Bruce Willis, Kim Basinger, John Larroquette, William Daniels, George Coe, Mark Blum, Phil Hartman

Rating: 7 out of 10, Willis’ big screen debut, back when he still had hair, tried to tap into his Moonlighting comedic personae, somewhat successfully. The biggest question looming over the plot is how Kim Bassinger would have ever needed to fixed up with a blind date. That being said Blake Edwards once again proves a deft hand with slapstick, disaster comedy. Willis’ date descends into madness as the crazed ex-boyfriend shows up along with an alcohol fueled Bassinger which eventually breaks Willis. While this movie has obviously aged there were a lot of small inside jokes that were a trademark of Edwards’ films. Sad to see Phil Hartman and the promise he always showed.

MVP: John Larroquette as the crazed boyfriend - David Bedford
