First Date is the directorial feature debut from Darren Knapp and Manuel Crosby. The dark comedy revolves around a shy teen who finally gets up the nerve to call the girl he has a crush on. They make a plan to go out that night but Mike doesn’t have a car so he buys a beat up old ’65 Chrysler from a sleazy guy and ends up with way more problems than he bargained for, including a lot of gun-toting criminals.

FIRST DATE (Sundance2021) – Review by Leslie Combemale

January 28, 2021February 8, 2021 Leslie Combemale Darren Knapp, first date, Manuel Crosby, shelby duclos, tyson brown

Strictly indie filmmakers Manuel Crosby and Darren Knapp’s wackadoodle coming-of-age thriller and comedic throwback, First Date has a convoluted, frenetic, and very entertaining plot that will lift you out of whatever existential ennui the pandemic, or your life during the pandemic is causing. It’s a funny, frothy joy ride and with just enough blood and bite to satisfy escapist entertainment-seeking audiences.
