In this romantic comedy fantasy, an angel (Emmanuelle Beart) with a heavenly body falls into the swimming pool of Jim Sanders (Michael E. Knight). Hung over from his bachelor party, his encounter with the angel has Jim questioning his upcoming marriage to Patty (Phoebe Cates), the daughter of a wealthy cosmetics mogul (David Dukes). After he helps the injured celestial being, Jim must protect her from his lecherous friends and his curious fiance. Beart's beauty and performance is the highlight of the film even though she does not speak. ~ Dan Pavlides, All Movie Guide

Love is heaven-sent in the romantic comedy Date with an Angel. Anchor Bay has done a great job at making sure this 1.85:1 anamorphic widescreen transfer looks nearly free of any and all blemishes or imperfections. Aside of a small amount of edge enhancement, this is a nice-looking transfer that sports bright colors and dark black levels. The audio is presented in Dolby Digital 2.0 in English and is only mediocre. While this soundtrack is free and clear of any distortion or hiss, overall, this is a bland and unimpressive soundtrack for the film. No alternate soundtracks or subtitles are included on this disc. =Date With an Angel's supplemental section isn't very heavenly -- the only extra feature available on this disc is a theatrical trailer for the film. ~ Patrick Naugle, All Movie Guide
