First Daughter Reviews

Very predictable, but tween girls may like it.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Dec 24, 2010

Yet another teen-princess fantasy.

| Feb 27, 2007

The President's little girl gets a pity party for the second time this election year.

| Jun 24, 2006

Holmes' wholesome charm keeps the movie afloat, but only just.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Apr 1, 2006

This stunning lack of inspiration is reflected in a script that continually hints at how teenagers have become disenchanted with politics without ever following it up.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Feb 15, 2005

Stupendously dull and infuriatingly obtuse, this is the cinematic equivalent of unflavored gelatin, bland and tasteless, but much less beneficial for your nails.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Oct 19, 2004

First Daughter is less amusing than Jenna and Barb at the RNC, and dumb enough to make last January's presidential scion, Mandy Moore, look electable.

...just has a really cheesy look.

Full Review | Sep 27, 2004

Everything and everyone remains an enigma, our heroine every bit the little girl cautiously trying to find her way into womanhood and independence just as she was at the start.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Sep 25, 2004

First Daughter presents such a saccharine-sweet, insufferably boring portrait of a conservative president and his family, it could kill with kindness.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Sep 24, 2004

A respectable accomplishment.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | Sep 24, 2004

First Daughter falters from the start in assuming an audience fascination with political progeny.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Sep 24, 2004

Not even Holmes can elevate this pap.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5 | Sep 24, 2004

There's nothing remotely surprising about this by-the- numbers effort.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/4 | Sep 24, 2004

A wan and predictable comedy made watchable by the perky performance of fresh-scrubbed Katie Holmes.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Sep 24, 2004

A dull, formulaic romance comedy with an ulterior motive and a sly message.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Sep 24, 2004

First Daughter is even more nauseating than most teen trifles.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Sep 24, 2004

First Daughter is all heart and has the best intentions in the world, but what a bore.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Sep 24, 2004

Bland behavioral propaganda.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Sep 24, 2004

All of this is obviously completely predictable and you keep waiting for something unexpected to happen. You're still waiting when the film ends.
