Desertman84 This teen-oriented romantic comedy focuses on the daughter of the President of the United States.Katie Holmes stars as Samantha MacKenzie,the young daughter of President John MacKenzie who has been in the public eye for her entire life.Talented actor Forest Whitaker directs and acts as the narrator for this film. The story is about the events in the First Daughter's life such as becoming a college freshman at Redmond University;acting normally in school just like the rest of the students by removing the Secret Service Agents keeping track of her;the friendship that she has developed; and the romance between her a fellow student who obviously has political motivations in getting to know her.This is another film limited for young viewers as the story is both simplistic and formulaic.Also,everything that happens becomes predictable before the scenes occur.Too bad that Katie Holmes' charm could not lift it from becoming an average movie.Overall,everything it does not have something original or refreshing.

Gordon-11 This film is about the president's daughter going into college. Hilarity ensues as she tries to fit normalcy in her life with a special status."First Daughter" is predictable, but it is enjoyable. Katie Holmes is convincing enough as the president's daughter. The twist about James being someone other than a student comes as a surprise, it is delivered in an effective way. I actually feel Samantha's pain and disappointment after the revelation! The jokes mainly come from her special status, such as the secret agents intervening the first party. Though they are predictable and silly, but the jokes work. It is light hearted and cheerful, though not as memorable as "Legally Blonde" which is rather similar. I think it makes a good choice for some brain off entertainment.

Angelus2 Samantha; the Presidents daughter is off to college and finds the stress of being the First Dauhter extremely hard and she ends up meeting James.James shows Samantha a world she has never seen or experienced only for it to broken when she finds out James real agenda in 'hanging' around her.He is a federal agent, protecting her.The film is a charming film brilliantly directed by Forest Whitaker.Katie Holmes plays the role of the good girl perfectly while Blucas shines as the agent. (Similar to a role he played in Buffy the Vampire Slayer) Michael Keaton is very funny as the President and father; while Amerie adds spice to the sweet mannered movie.

bhab_peace Wow !! I love this movie First Daughter..Such a refreshing and sweet one. The chemistry between Katie and Marc is just so amazing and beautiful. I do not watch English movies that much but I just happen to watch this movie in a TV channel and I go bowled over by the simplicity and sweetness of the movie. Since then I check that TV channel every now n then in hope that First Daughter may have been broad casted. Katie looks simple yet so beautiful. Marc is also so very good looking. Storyline is an interesting one. Presentation is equally interesting. But the ending of the movie is little kind of unsatisfying. I Wish it could have ended in a better way. Never the less, I love it.
