The unforgettable summer ends too soon, but the memories linger. Four years later Brice and Cleveland drive up to Jack's farm and learn that there is no going back... Written by Ron Teachworth

A great coming of age film
18 September 2001 | by (Long Island, New York) – See all my reviews

It is odd to see Bruce Campbell for a film like this since he is mostly a horror movie actor but it was still great. The movie focuses around Brice Chapman (Bruce Campbell) and Cleveland "Clee" Neal (Christopher Howe). These two guys are college friends who decide to take a vacation. When there car breaks down, they meet this old war vetern who owns a farm and who gives them a place to stay. Also Brice meets a girl there who he falls for. And they realize when they have to go home they can never go back. This movie I liked a lot. It's not like one of those draggy, boring, and pointless dramas but instead it hooks you and your mind tells you to watch it all. I recommend this film to all.

10/10
