Now, I know there's a tendency in Hollywood for multiple movies with similar themes to be released close to each other, but I'm pretty sure these two may actually be the same movie:
First Daughter (opening next week)
When Samantha Mackenzie (Holmes), the 18-year-old daughter of the president of the United States, demands that she be allowed to go to college without having to be followed by a fleet of secret service agents (with their suits, sunglasses, ear-pieces and very unhip attitudes), her dad agrees... while actually assigning one of the youngest Secret Service agents to follow her around on campus disguised as a student anyway. The president's plan goes smoothly until the young agent falls in love with this girl he has to spend all day following, and she falls in love with him too, until... she finds out whom he really is. Can their love outlive the deception that gave it fruit?
Chasing Liberty (was in theatres earlier this year)
The President's daughter (Moore), unable to experience life like a normal 18 year-old, escapes from her entourage of Secret Service agents while traveling in Europe. She falls in love with a handsome British stranger (Goode), who also happens to be working undercover for her father (Harmon).
(Blurbs taken from Yahoo! Movies and IMDB respectively)
The next question is why does my brain read the First Daughter blurb and immediately say to me "Wow, that looks awful!" followed by "I must see it!"?
