Two of 1988's hottest young actors, Haim and Feldman, made up quite a draw in the destructive LICENSE TO DRIVE--in which, strangely, only Haim has what could be considered a starring role. Essentially the entire plot of LICENSE TO DRIVE is contained in a young man's (Haim) suffering the ultimate humiliation of failing his first driving examination. Undaunted, he deceives his parents (Masur and Kane) and takes his grandfather's precious classic car without permission when an opportunity too good to refuse (read that hot date) presents itself. Although the premise of getting or not getting a first driver's license is a solid-enough base for 90 minutes of teenage comedy, LICENSE TO DRIVE misses the point on all counts. leave a comment
