ABC Thursday Movie of the Week: Road Trip

In Road Trip, fraternity guy Josh Parker (Breckin Meyer) has a long-distance relationship with his high school girlfriend, Tiffany (Rachel Blanchard). The separation — he's in college in New York and she's in college in Texas — leads him to make a "little" mistake; he makes a video of his seduction by the local sexpot (Amy Smart). He has also made a sweet video to send to Tiffany, but the two tapes get mixed up and the hot one goes in the mail to Texas. Lacking the cash to fly, Josh borrows a car and he and his pals hit the road in a mad dash to beat the errant tape to its destination. The laugh-packed journey is filled with more than potholes and the frat boys encounter some pretty hilarious speed bumps along the way.

Seabiscuit

PG13 Time: 140
It was the greatest underdog story every told--and it would grip the hearts of a nation at a time when it was needed the most. Written for the screen and directed by Gary Ross, this inspiring drama tells the story of a horse whom no one in their right mind would gamble on...and the three men who rode him to the top. Based on Laura Hillenbrand's bestseller Seabiscuit: An American Legend, the film chronicles the astonishing Depression-era story from the perspective of an undersized longshot thoroughbred who caught the eyes of three human underdogs: owner Charles Howard, trainer Tom Smith and jockey Red Pollard. Tobey Maguire, Jeff Bridges and Oscar(R)-winner Chris Cooper (2002's Adaptation) star as the trio. Also with Elizabeth Banks, Gary Stevens and William H. Macy.
