17 Again

17 AGAIN (2009) - April 20, 2009
A surprisingly enjoyable body-switching comedy about a middle-aged schlub, on the verge of a divorce and with kids who don't particularly like him, who winds up being transformed into a 17-year-old version of himself. He quickly decides to enroll in his old high school, where it becomes pretty clear that both of his kids need his help. Anchored by an effortlessly charismatic Zac Efron (it's easy enough to see why he's becoming such a big star), the film is far better than it really has any right to be. ***
