Considered a bit of a nerd, Duncan too has trouble finding dates. He and Hallie hit it off but because it is an election year, the security around her is doubled.

    This was okay. I've certainly seen worse Disney films, and I've definitely seen worse more recent films with a similar theme, (the atrocious "First Daughter" and sleep -inducing "Chasing Liberty" spring to mind!). I was surprised to see this was out in 1998 - it had the feel of ... read morean early 90's film to it, with the hair and outfits. I hate to admit that that won it a few points with me! The story is exactly what you'd expect, but the two leads are good and it doesn't feel overly long.

    Very predictable plot. Nothing too exciting because you could tell what was coming.... Umm... Its not horrible, but something that younger people would be more interested in, but its still not that great.

    This movie is so cool!! I love it, it's very funny, and interesting. I've seen it twice, and you should see it, too!!

    Yeah, it's pretty formulaic. But I really enjoyed it when I was 11. And I still have a soft spot for Will Friedle.
