Director Rob Reiner showcases yet another facet of his talent with this most delightful romantic comedy about two terminally opposite college students who share a cross-country ride in order to meet up with their respective love interests.
Predictable and old-fashioned in extremis, the film never appears goofy, mean-spirited, or pretentious, as was the case with many of its contemporary competitors. In fact, its few flaws are easily overlooked by its sure-footed direction, wonderful cast - and two of movie history's funniest oxymorons: 1) 'Sponatiety has its time and place' 2) 'I'm intellectual and stuff'
score 8/10
