Directionless with a feather light plot uninspierd direction and acting from a script that must have been made up on the spot. Oxford offers wonderful views and backgrounds. Pity they were't used to their fullest. A high school student with a... Full review

Being a big crew buff I'll see just about anything with a boat in it. The most amusement that I got from this film was from how unrealistic it portrayed the sport of rowing. First of all it's hard to believe... Full review

This is one of those movies which makes you think: would Hulk " The real American " Hogan have done the same? Frankly I don't think so and he'd have been right. I'm Italian, I cannot go proud of my country... Full review

OK. I know that the wanna-be John Hughes movies of the 80s were all unilaterally flat, so the expectations for this film ran pretty low. Still, after sitting through this crap there's one key thing I can't seem to get out... Full review
