So there's the daughter of the President of the USA - Holmes and Keaton - who longs to be an ordinary college teenager; at which point you might as well give up on this hopeless load of tosh.

OK, we'll press on - with shouts of "why!!!" ringing in our ears - to follow the young lady to a meeting with a stereotype mouthy African-American college room-mate who acts as her guide through the hell that is American teendom.

And that's about it; well, except to report that there is no decent plot to speak of, no decent dialogue for the actors - now then, stop laughing - to speak, no innovation to lift our deflated spirits. It is an empty, third-rate film and a waste of your time.

Star Rating: 0/5
