Not only is this movie surprisingly entertaining, but Zac Efron is surprisingly pretty good and carries the movie well. I thought it would be something I'd have on while working on something but I ended up pretty invested in the story. It's simple enough to follow, but not in a condescending way, nor does it veer into kids territory. Check it out, it's actually pretty decent.

I was surprised that I actually liked this movie and thought it was funny. Zac Efron is very good in this. In fact, the whole cast is pretty good. The story is fun and well done.

Zac Efron goes from the Disney Channel to the big screen, but still remains in high school. The difference, however, is the proof that Efron can move on from the High School Musical franchise! He's great as the 17-year-old version of Matthew Perry's Mike, who is given a second chance to fix his life by going back 20 years to high school. As the lead, Efron carries the film with ease, making this an enjoyable watch from start to finish! Leslie Mann is great as his estranged wife, and have great chemistry with the rest of the cast.

Cliche-ridden? not quite... Body Swap? Doesn't quite fit the category.. to the tune of 13 Going On 30? Actually the opposite...Let's face it guys. This is not an obra maestra, and was never meant to be. Zac Efron, however, was sensational! It was quite a challenge to maintain a baby-face look and yet project a father image when hovering over his children's affairs. Very entertaining. So chill out, and just enjoy the movie!
