Directed by Robert BorisMy rating: 1.5 stars out of 4

(DVD, Warner Archive Collection)
Rob Lowe is an obnoxious American who hustles his way into Oxford to meet pretty British royalty Amanda Pays. It's a "fish out of water" story with all the obvious cliches. Rowing is used to build character and add tension. A big finale is as sterile as it is predictable. Ally Sheedy is miscast as an obnoxious American girl also at Oxford. It's just one big vanity project for Lowe. Good location photography is the only saving grace.
