Der Date Profi: Directed by Todd Phillips. With Billy Bob Thornton, Jon Heder, Jacinda Barrett, Michael Clarke Duncan. A young guy short on luck enrolls in a class to build confidence to help win over the girl of his dreams, which becomes complicated when it turns out his teacher has the same agenda.

“Adequately entertaining. Billy Bob Thornton and Jon Heder make mildly interesting, obviously unmatched adversaries. Talented supporting cast also supplies some interest, but no character is fully developed. Michael Clarke Duncan comes the closest, but his hostility, his back story, his orientation is unexplained and sometimes inexplicable. Jacinda Barrett plays a nice girl, and does a nice job. Some laughs, interrupted by huge plot holes. What is Sarah Silverman doing, except being nasty? u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe premise is funny. Who hasnu0026#39;t felt like u0026quot;the nice guy who finishes lastu0026quot;, with the exception of people like the self-proclaimed u0026quot;Doctor Pu0026quot;, Billy Bob Thornton, who teaches the class of the weak and the meek to become lions. The overall mediocrity of the mess is pretty much attributable to director Todd Phillips (u0026quot;Old Schoolu0026quot;, u0026quot;Starsky and Hutchu0026quot;). Wait for the DVD, and rent it for $1.00; donu0026#39;t buy it.”
