17 Again

PG-13
Starring: Zac Efron, Matthew Perry, Thomas Lennon & Leslie Mann
1 hour & 42 minutes

I went into this movie not quite knowing what to expect. Zac Efron (from the Disney High School Musical Movies) stars as a 17 year old high school senior. Just prior to the championship basketball game, his girlfriend informed him that she was pregnant, and he left the game against his coach's wishes to console her.
Then comes Matthew Perry who stars as the 35 year old father (who is Zac Efron's character 18 years later). He resents the fact that he left the basketball game and blames his wife for his unhappiness. His wife has filed for divorce and he failed to get a promotion at work, his life is in shambles. By some strange phenomenon the school janitor is able to transform him back to his high school days where he is seventeen again and back in the body of Zac Efron. He attends school with his daughter and his son. As he mingles with the students he helps to get his own children back on track and sets a good example for the other student's to follow.
This movie has some funny and some serious moments. There is some sexual innuendo and a teenage party scene. I would not recommend this movie for anyone under thirteen because of the mature theme.
