I bought this film as Bruce Campbell fan, but the story is really heartfelt. I found it to be a great flick about the passage of time and how things change from our youth to adulthood.

The only real reason anyone will see this movie, and let's be honest, is that it stars Bruce Campbell. I think that anyone who argues this fact is simply not playing with a full deck, because if it were not for Bruce, the film would most likely have been forgotten. But it's a good thing that this movie has Bruce in it. It's a good thing that it has been released on DVD, because the film is actually pretty interesting. It has the basic and overused premise of a few friends pre-college who are going on a road trip before heading to college. After a few years at the college, they have separated, become different men who no longer know each other as well. It's a truth that we all face in life. Friends become distanced. The director does a good job with his shoestring budget, but the real gold here is an early role for Bruce Campbell that has absolutely no blood in it. It's a very interesting movie, and I recommend you check it out.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sad but touching story of lost youth, April 8, 2002

This review is from: Going Back [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I just turned 21 and I'm a junior in college, basically having been through major changes (like girlfriends, and losing touch with old friends) made me extremely nostalgic. I was a little sad but still generally happy but I needed something to tell me I'd be alright. I heard about an old film called 'Going Back' which was essentially about what ever guy goes through after high school. I watched it and thought that it was truley a great film. If you are curious trust me you'll find it charming. Make sure that no one is home and crack open a beer and relax, you have the rest of your life to live.
