Lets face it guys at that time, Rick had it made.Top Hit songs,Acting,Looks..etc.This movie made me wish that I could find True Love like that.And go after it with all my Heart.You know, Really be her one and only Love Crazed Romantic. It is True like in the movie, You always seem to want the one the most, That you cant have. But Hay. Just like Jamie Roberts(Springfield) GO FOR IT!!!! The best ones, Are Hard To Hold.

Summary: Easy to View & Listening Delight
Review: Fantastic music produced with this film makes it grand enough to purchase. Rick Springfield is as gorgeous as his character Jamie Roberts and the plot, while basic and not deep, is fun. It's a fun evolving love story which will captivate viewers by virtue of its great music - "Love Somebody" - a terrific 80's song that still rings true for everyone in every age, "Stand Up" - my favorite - a grand opener for any rock concert - buy it, try it and just enjoy without looking for deep meaning or significance. It's a keeper for me - bought it in video & dvd.

Summary: started his downfall...
Review: From that movie on. I saw this movie when I was 13, and just remember seeing Rick running down a hall with a towel wrapped around him.. I got a chance to see this movie again after I bought it. Half the time he is kissing a girl or making love to her behind a wall after being chaced by a mob!

This movie ... Poor story and lack of great actors... This was the start of his decline on acting jobs... After Rock of Life in 1988 there were no more hits for this ... teen idol... Rick even said that he made the wrong choice... I guess that he jumped in too fast....

I have seen him in other movies that were sooo much better then this movie. My review is the same no matter how you slice it...

Summary: The plot gets no stars; Rick gets one.
Review: Hard to Hold was hard to swallow and hard to watch. It featured 80s pop star Rick Springfield as a teen idol who falls in love with a prissy psychologist. It's your typical opposites attract love story with only the flavor of Springfield's music to get you through the minutes. It was a completely embarrising first feature film for Springfield (which he admitted in later years), and it failed to let critics see past the lame storyline to Springfield's true acting ability. Springfield is a pretty good actor, but unfortunately Hard to Hold was a hard vehicle to display such talent.

Summary: Hard to stomach is the real title of this movie.
Review: Hard to stomach is the real title of this movie. My wife made me watch it, and I find it hard to believe that somebody with that type of talent would make a movie so bad. The only saving grace was the music. Graham Parker is very under-rated performer as well as Rick himself. Buy the sound track and skip the movie.

Summary: great for Rick Springfield fans & anyone who loves the 80s
Review: I love this movie. I gave it four stars instead of five because the script is admittedly weak in places and the directing makes it look like a TV movie rather than a feature film. But none of that obscures the positive points of the movie.

It should be obvious that this film will hold the most appeal for fans of Rick Springfield. He is a much better actor than one might assume and plays some of the awkwardly-written swings of his character well. Janet Eilber does a good job as the conservative "ordinary" woman his character falls in love with. The weakest performance in the film is Patti Hansen's, as the rocker's songwriting partner and former girlfriend. She works hard but can't overcome the stilted dialogue she's given in most of her scenes.

The best part of the movie may be the music. The majority of the songs in the film are written and performed by Springfield and will be familiar to fans.

Not a great film, but one I enjoy a great deal. If you're a fan you will feel the same way.

Summary: The 80's rule!
Review: I loved Rick Springfield in the 80's. Who really paid attention to the story line when he was on the screen. Good music... not so good acting. Songs like "Love Somebody" were my fav. I thought they could have at least given him a more attractive co-star. There was just something I didn't like about her.
