Two teenagers from Ohio get into big trouble in Thailand in this handsome but familiar drama. Free-spirited Alice (Claire Danes) and good girl Darlene (Kate Beckinsale), best friends as long as they can remember, are supposed to go on a high school
graduation trip to Hawaii. But at the last minute Alice persuades Darlene that Bangkok would be more fun — "it's like Las Vegas with no parents and no rules," she crows, and unworldly Darlene reluctantly agrees. Once there, they meet a charming Australian named Nick (Daniel Lapaine), who
turns both their pretty heads and talks them into a quick trip to Hong Kong, his treat. It is, of course, a trick, and a nasty one...
