17 Again Review

I'm so not impressed with movies lately. This movie had two really good things about it.
- EYE
- CANDY
I think I developed a little crush on Zac Efron watching this film. Man, he's cuuuuute! And I've always loved Mathew Perry though he's better on Friends than he is in any movie I've ever seen him in.
Without giving too much away this is about a man who spends too much time worrying about things he should have done. So he's given the opportunity to be 17 again through his genie in a bottle/fairy godmother?...who just happens to be disguised as a burly male high school janitor. Mmmkay...
So, he goes back to high school to try and relive and re-do whatever it is that he felt needed to be redone.
It was boring. And predictable for the most part. Some parts were funny, most were not. Like hearing Zac say the word "douche", that was kinda funny...though it would have been better had he dropped an F-bomb or something.
I spent a majority of the film trying to figure out who the school principal was and where the hell I'd seen her before. When the credits rolled I learned it was Melora Hardin....and I immediately realized who she was. She did a dancey dance at Brobee's birthday party on Yo Gabba Gabba.
I can't escape that show no matter what I do!
Anyway...Um...2.5 stars for this movie? Maybe 3 if you like super love Zac Efron.

whatever happened to the great days of "teen" comedies like the breakfast club.
He is some sweet eye candy...no rob pattison, but cute.
I agree Matthew Perry has not done great since Friends
Lol! I find nothing cute about him, so maybe it's something I'll just pass along as a suggestion to my 13 year old sister instead. :P
We saw this on opening night with about a thousand teenage girls. They whooped and hollered like they were at a rodeo :)
