A winning cast helps sell that familiar premise — not just Reale and Young-White, who have definite chemistry and an easy-flowing banter, but also the brassy, scene-stealing Catherine Cohen. Read full review

The script is often very witty, peppered with sharp observations and two very entertaining performances, but there are underlying problems the movie cannot overcome. Read full review

Honestly, both Sex and the City and Seinfeld tackled the romantic pitfalls of youngish single life in NYC more adeptly in their relatively truncated formats than this 91-minute movie, and with a helluva lot more verve and wit. Read full review

Unfortunately, Dating & New York can't find anything new to say about the world of casual dating, so its love story never fully gets off the ground. Read full review

If so, either I'm meeting veryAre you seriously telling me that young people today while on their dates are trying to sound smart by pulling their conversations and personalities out of what seem to be self-help books and are trying to outdo each other to see who is the most interesting?
If so, either I'm meeting very different people, or fortunately I don't deal with them.

I wanted to try this with less prejudice, but within the first 10 minutes the two main characters had already exhausted me.

Quite an insufferable story.… Expand
