Review of Cruise

Cruise (2018)
4/10
Same old story line updated with social props, cars, and puffy lips.
31 December 2021
If it seems familiar, go with the feeling. Bad boy from wrong side of tracks (Italian, of course) falls for thrill seeking girl in ivy league college from the suburbs (Jewish American Princess with lips only a Plastic Surgeon could admire). This version is a little more adult but is on the spectrum of Hollywood young "love" stories. Even a faint whiff of Romeo and Juliet meets Dirty Dancing, that's how trite it seemed at times.

On the "Pro" side, the budget was on the screen, the actors played their stereotypes, and the leads were good enough. Emily Ratajkowski's lip job, if just for vanity and not medically needed, should be a warning to young people, natural beauty is always better than surgical.
