Movie review

From Time Out New York

The President's little girl gets a pity party for the second time this election year, as Katie Holmes tries to top the Mandy Moore flop Chasing Liberty for insights into America's political princesses. This new version trades Moore's European tour for freshman year at college, as Holmes tries to shake Secret Service agents while looking for a campus beau. But since the movies have the same premise, sight jokes and romantic plot twists, the challenge seems redundant—appropriate in this age of the Bush twins.
