Trivia
When Samantha (Katie Holmes) and Mia (Amerie) are sliding down the slope on the Slip 'N Slide, Holmes inadvertently pulled down Amerie's sweatpants while struggling to climb over the hay bales, exposing Amerie's bottom in view of the camera. Director Forest Whitaker chose to leave this in the final cut of the film, since it was a spontaneous event, and quite in line with the carefree nature of the scene.

Goofs
When James and Sam telling each other things they don't know, James says that every state in the union has a city named Springfield. This is not true, as Alaska, Arizona, Connecticut, Hawaii, Kansas, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Rhode Island, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming are Springfield-less.

Quotes
James Lansome: Actually, I think I completely understand what you're going through.
Samantha Mackenzie: You do?
James Lansome: This one time, I won the class spelling bee. I couldn't get from point A to point B without people watching my every move. I had to avoid the press, the paparazzi. And the women. My God, the women, Sam. The number of training bras left in my locker could fill the support needs of an entire country.

formulaic

The entire film seems to set up scenes that specifically in relation to teen dream perfection. The scenes don't respond or even make sense with each other, but independently they are each set up as every young girl's day dream. A slip and slide college night where a chance meeting occurs. A flight on air force one to a ball where the girls get to wear a fantastic dress. Sitting on a small boat in the middle of the lake with the boy you love while he's fishing and you're holding an umbrella to keep the sun from your eyes. It's formulaic and dull. It's perfectly fine to make a movie that targets a young age group, but it is NOT OK to make that movie as poorly and as unthoughtful as possible.

If you want to see this film but on a slightly better scale (and by better I mean that it's set internationally) then go see chasing liberty.
