Product description: |
| Two mismatched college students (John Cusack and Daphne Zuniga) find themselves trapped together during a cross-country road trip, trying to make it home for the holidays. She can't stand him, and he just wants to get to L.A., where a sexy "sure thing" is waiting to greet him with open arms. It's not hard to predict where this sweetly old-fashioned romantic comedy is going to end up, but along the way there are many pleasures to be had. Director Rob Reiner, in his second feature (after This Is Spinal Tap), has a nice eye for the kitschy flotsam found along the American highway, and his identification with the college kids doesn't condescend to them one bit. The movie helped make a star of John Cusack, who gives a delightfully spritzy performance--kind of a precursor to his similarly energetic, likable turn in Say Anything. Given the usual crass tenor of Hollywood college movies, The Sure Thing is something to treasure. --Robert Horton |

Movie review: 'Flipped' ~ The Springfield News-Leader ~ 7 hours ago
"Checkered" would be too kind of a way to characterize Rob Reiner's recent filmography as a director. His last decade has included the romantic comedies "Rumor Has It..." and "Alex & Emma," and his last film, 2007's "The Bucket List." It's been a while since his incredible start in the 1980s: "This Is Spinal Tap," "The Sure Thing," "Stand by Me," "The Princess Bride" and "When Harry Met Sally..."

And although I try to relay to these people what my readers remind me every few days ? that I?m a complete idiot and know nothing about football ? the question still gets asked: ?Who?s the ?sure thing? this week?? Unfortunately, there?s [...]

Choose one for Jackie Evancho: Stardom now or a real singing career later? ~ Los Angeles Times ~ 21 hours ago
I was delighted to discover during Tuesday night's "America's Got Talent" that my handwringing about Jackie Evancho's falsely adult sound and the evils of network television was premature. Her performance of the "Pie Jesu" from Andrew Lloyd Webber's 1986 "Requiem"...

Three-point stance: Navy takes a gamble ~ ESPN Blogs ~ 1 day ago
1. The Heisman Trust denied a Yahoo! Report on Tuesday that it decided to strip Reggie Bush of the 2005 Heisman Trophy. I believe that the Trust shouldn?t do so and I hope it doesn?t. But c?mon: nothing the Trust decides, not even the first vacated Heisman, will match the emotional blow that USC delivered this summer when it returned the school?s copy of Bush?s trophy. 2. Darren Evans looked ...
