  I think our hands just made a baby

  Everyone wishes that in some ways they could turn back the hands of time and do things differently. With all of Mike O’Donnell’s regrets, he travels back to the days of high school, as a 17 year old boy and is given the chance to relive and possibly redo the one pivotal moment in his life that changed everything. I really enjoyed watching this movie. It reminded me in a lot of ways of the other reversing time movies such as Big and 13 Going on 30. Zac Efron was surprisingly good and fit the role well and I really liked Thomas Lennon who played his best friend/geeky “man-child” father. There was a good blend of comedic and heartfelt moments and it had unpredictable scenes which is always refreshing to see in any film. Worth mentioning would be the soundtrack as it had Kool and the Gang, Young MC and more!

  Great movie

  This movie was great. There were a few moments that were just a bit different but Zac Efron did a great job. He and Tom Lennon were a hit together. Zac did an amazing job in the court room scene, he really pulled it out. A must for a Zac Efron fan to see but also a great movie for everyone to see.

  Better than I expected ~

  First off, I want to say that Zac Efron's acting was superb in this movie! I never liked him much ever since watching him in his previous movies, HSM and Hairspray) with his wooden acting, but he was excellent in this movie. He had the role down pat and modeled it after Matthew Perry's acting style, which remind me of Chandler (from "Friends"). The basis of the movie starts off with Mike (Perry) who is unhappy with his current situation and wishes that he could go back to his glory days. He sort of gets his wish, but not the in the way he expects it. The setup of events are expertly placed, making the storyline flow smoothly and intelligently. For example, although Mike is his younger self, he still manages to interact with his wife and children and maintains the relationship throughout (you will understand what I mean when you watch it!) While the majority of the movie focus' on Mike, the subplot with his best friend, Ned is hilarious, so look out for his moments. There are definite LOL moments and very sweet/cute moments that make you go "awwww". ♥ENJOY!
