First Daughter is a romantic comedy movie that was released in 2004. The movie stars Katie Holmes as Samantha Mackenzie, the daughter of the President of the United States. Marc Blucas plays James, her love interest, while Michael Keaton plays the President. The movie follows Samantha's journey as she tries to have a normal college experience without the scrutiny of the media and without her father's interference.

Samantha has always lived her life in the public eye, and she is used to being the center of attention. She has always been protected by the Secret Service, and she has never been able to experience life as a regular teenage girl. When Samantha decides to attend college, her father agrees to let her go, but he insists that the Secret Service stays with her at all times.

Samantha is excited to start her new life, but she quickly realizes that she is not going to be able to have the freedom that she desires. She cannot go out without the Secret Service, and she cannot date anyone without them being thoroughly vetted by the Secret Service first. Feeling frustrated, Samantha rebels by skipping class and sneaking out of her dorm room. It is during one of these outings that she meets James, a handsome and charming student who quickly captures her heart.

James is smitten with Samantha from the moment he meets her, but he has no idea that she is the daughter of the President. Samantha does not want to tell him, but as their relationship deepens, she knows that she has to reveal the truth. James is shocked when he learns who Samantha really is, but he decides that he wants to continue their relationship despite the challenges that it will bring.

As Samantha and James navigate their relationship, Samantha's father is in the middle of a re-election campaign. Her father's staff does not want Samantha's relationship to become a distraction, so they tell her that she cannot continue to see James. Samantha is heartbroken, but she knows that her father's political aspirations are important, so she agrees to break things off with James.

The rest of the movie follows Samantha as she tries to balance her desire for a normal life with her duties as the First Daughter. She also has to navigate her changing relationship with James and her father's re-election campaign. The movie is a light-hearted romantic comedy with a few serious moments that explore the struggles of growing up in the public eye.

Overall, First Daughter is a fun and charming movie that showcases Katie Holmes' talents as an actress. Marc Blucas and Michael Keaton also deliver solid performances in their respective roles. The movie provides a glimpse into what life might be like for the children of world leaders and shows the audience that even the privileged have their own struggles. First Daughter is a perfect movie for a cozy night in with a loved one.

First Daughter is a 2004 kids & family movie with a runtime of 1 hour and 46 minutes. It has received mostly poor reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 5.1 and a MetaScore of 31.
