From
the back cover:
Tom McHugh (Ethan
Hawke), home from college for the summer, can't get his beautiful
neighbor, Geena (Teri Polo), off his mind. He wants to ask her
out, but he's too shy, so his suave older brother, Craig (Brian
McNamara), sets him up by calling her and impersonating Tom.
Craig takes care of everything for his younger brother's date,
outfitting tom with a new suit, haircut, and a wad of cash to
party with. With the makeover complete, Tom hops in his brother's
classid DeSoto convertible and takes off for the city's hottest
night spots with Geena. But no sooner do the two of them hit the
town than Tom is caught up in a mistaken identity crisis, when
he's pegged for his older borther! Before they can even order
appetizers, Tom and Geena are being pursued by a wicked crime
lord (B.D. Wong), stalked by a wacked-out delivery man (Fisher
Stevens), and hunted by a pair of crooked cops. It's the
beginning of a hilarious and unforgettable night of madcap
mystery and mayhem!

Fish Factor:
Fisher Stevens has a
moderate role as Dwight, the vengeful flower deliveryman looking
for his tip. As a mindless romp, and as pure entertainment, the
movie is enjoyable; but if you're a deep thinker, and only like
deep-thinking kinds of movies, you probably won't enjoy Mystery
Date. However, if what you are looking for is a good dose of
Fisher at his neurotic best, check this movie out - he's
fantastic!
Merchandise:
This film is
available for purchase at the usual online video outlets.
