Okay-ish romantic-music-drama where singer Rick Springfield has some decent chemistry with Janet Eilber but the acting as a whole was uneven for both of them, such as when Eilber's character finds her father dead on the floor, cringy acting there and Springfield is even worse with almost anything that was dramatic. Won't say it's a waste of time but it's also not memorable, including the music. **2.5/5**
