Critic Reviews

Jeannette Catsoulis, New York Times
Tries to coax laughs from characters so dated even Eddie Murphy would balk.
John DeFore, Hollywood Reporter
An amateurish comedy that sets up straw-man playboys to knock them over with the power of love, Speed-Dating seems designed to exploit the black indie theatrical circuit but hardly merits even a DVD release.
Nick Pinkerton, Village Voice
Likable enough to wear you down with its eager-to-please capering.
Kam Williams, NewsBlaze
A titillating tribute to the novel notion of strangers with benefits!
Tim Cogshell, Boxoffice Magazine
Everything about this film is fairly offensive, including its racial stereotypes, homophobia, misogyny, generally bad writing and amateur filmmaking.
Diego Costa, Slant Magazine
The only thing perhaps scarier than being surprised by the gay monster is, apparently, mistaking a tranny for a real woman.
Avi Offer, NYC Movie Guru
An asinine, lazy, juvenile and painfully unfunny attempt at comedy.
Andrew Schenker, Time Out New York
Who knew entering a belated adulthood could be so easy -- and so utterly joyless?
