Review

Slight and disappointing romance which attempts to portray love between Gen Xers. Writer/director Stacy Cochran gets fine performances from two of the leading proponents of this generation: the sensitive, delicate Winona Ryder and the expressive Lukas Haas. There's chemistry between the two leads, but they're not helped much by Cochran's script, which has its share of silliness, such as the implausible tension between Haas' schoolmates and the inexplicable mystique surrounding James LeGros and Skeet Ulrich. Better luck next time.
