    Dawson's Creek star Katie Holmes has struggled to translate her TV popularity to the big screen and this tepid romantic comedy doesn't look like changing things. She plays the dutiful daughter of the US president (Michael Keaton), but is looking forward to asserting her independence when she heads off to college. The ever-present secret service and tabloid reporters make life difficult, but things start to look up when she falls for fellow student Marc Blucas. However, he may not be all that he seems. The direction here by Forest Whitaker (who also narrates) is proficient enough, but what starts off as a fairy-tale romp gets drearily serious midway through. A touch of Animal House-style tastelessness would have made this a lot more fun.
