Rob Reiner directed "The Sure Thing" featuring John Cusack with cameos by Anthony Edwards, Tim Robbins, and Nicolette Sheridan. The film is about a guy at an Ivy League school who is in a dry spell whose friend at a college in California tells him to come out for a girl. He ends up having to make the cross-country trip with an uptight girl from his English class, who is on the way to visit her boyfriend at law school. The two of them spar on the trip, and there are many funny scenes from the road trip. The movie was very uplifting and funny. I can't believe I never saw this film before, since high school / college romantic comedies from the 80s are my absolute favorite! It definitely ranks as one of the best from that genre. It gets 3 ½ out of 5 stars.
