First Daughter (2004)

I saw the movie First Daughter and I thought that it was great. I like Katie Holmes! She is such a wonderful Actress and she has wonderful talent. I watched her in Dawson's Creek and she was great there too. I really enjoy watching Katie Holmes movies cause they are so much fun and she puts in all her effort and talent she is just so amazing. Words can't explain it. I can relate to her in the movie First Daughter because like her when I was living at home with my parents I wanted freedom and I wanted to go out and show the world that I was capable of and not just a Daddy and Mommy's girl who would always live at home. I wanted to go off to college to do that. And that is almost exactly what Katie aka Samantha did. She wanted to go off to college and do things on her own and be a normal person. And I admire that in that movie. It was a wonderful movie just like I said before. Katie Holmes is a wonderful actress and i can't wait to see some more of her movies soon. Cause I know that they will be good. Thanks Katies number one fan

Fmovies: I must be a romantic at heart. I loved the movie, it was great. My two kids loved it. There are not that many movies (that are not animated) that kids can watch. My kids are not the 1st graders, nor are they the pre teens. They fall into the middle, and they loved it. They had a slumber party of kids to watch it in surround sound. The soundtrack is awesome, and the movie flowed very well. Its the type of movie that leaves you with a happy heart and wanting more. Katie was beautiful, my own husband thought she was stunning. Marc was great too, he does the movie very well. The kids keep bugging us wanting to know when part two is coming out. I do hope they do it and not think the reviews were acceptable and back out. They did leave the opening for it, and it would be a lovely ending to the story. Forest Whitaker - Hats off to you. It was excellent.

I really enjoyed this movie. My husband and I went to see it at the movies together. This movie is about parental love, finding yourself, first love and the college experience. It talks about how hard it is to live up to someone else expectations. It is a wonderful movie that you can watch with your kids. The actors and actresses are the best. My husband had never seen Katie Holmes in anything before and was as impressed with how expressive her facial features are. She can really express herself with her eyes. She looked crushed, happy, sad, excited, embarrassed and betrayed all with her features. Her words just added to it. Michael Keaton was exceptional as always. Marc Blucas has come a long ways since his Buffy days. You will enjoy the love and happiness that is in this film. JP

First Daughter fmovies. a pleasant and entertaining film. A safe film for young teenagers, and one which gives a half way decent message about young relationships. Very fortunate that there is no profanity,perversion or pornography, blood, guts gore and the usual trappings of so much from film land of all nations. Reminiscent of a gentler era at large and one which many might wish back again. Good for a girls night in! This film made a favorable impression on my grandchildren. Great to dress up in ballgowns and do 'proper dancing'. I would certainly agree with the comments of others to wit, "let's get them back again for a sequel". After all the ending narration was, 'that's another story'. In order to have a realistic happy ending perhaps a flashback mode could be employed to explain a change of scene to South America say for the ss man 'James'. Young Marc Blucas is very believable. MissHolmes is a little past the teenager, but she has a compelling smile.

This is one of the very very few modern films which I have purchased.

I just registered with IMDb for the exclusive purpose of telling everyone within shouting distance that is one of the absolute worst movies I have ever seen. I had to do this in order to validate the two hours of my life that I just wasted on this tripe. The script was beyond awful, and it was incredibly slow. Please, for the love of God, do not waste your time on this movie. I cannot even conceive of a movie more predictable, more cliché, more utterly forced. I can imagine Michael Keaton seeing the final cut of this film for the first time and retching, wondering what the hell happened to his career. This film was clearly targeted to under 13 girls, and I suspect that they could not even stomach the astoundingly slow pace of the film.

The best parts of this movie - in my estimation is watching Katie Holmes run around with that tiny blue bikini on, and do the table dance with the blonde wig on. Other than that - it could have been much better. I thought the combo of Michael Keaton and Katie would have made this movie much improved over Chasing Liberty (I also thought that movie was mediocre at best). But in the end, this movie was just okay. The ending was very disappointing also. There was no resolution except that she's got her whole life in front of her. I still consider Wonder Boys and Pieces of April as Katie's best work. I hope she's got something really redeeming up next. I'd hate for her to fall under the Ben Affleck curse (good looking, made some good movies, but then started making tons of terrible ones). We can only hope.
