    Not sure who thought this could all work with this cast and plot idea; but there you have it. Not quite the Back To The Future clone they thought it was going to be.

    Weird. Not really funny. Kind of predictable. The lead and ALL the other high school characters look old. I'm just not into this movie.

    Peggy Sue Got Married, is one of my all time favorite Kathleen Turner films.

    Kathleen Turner and Nicolas Cage star together in this film that takes Peggy (Turner) into her past. While she is at a high school reunion she gets to re-examine her life and love choices in her seni...( read more)or year of high school. Kathleen looks great and the premise is good. Another "must see" film on my list.

    Lightweight time travel comedy that lacks the wit or invention of it's contemporary Back To The Future. There are some OK ideas, but Kathleen Turner lacks star presence, and Nicolas Cage is rubbish.

    Peggy Sue Got Married's premise is a wonderful one, which takes on other meanings as age creeps up and the years whistle by.
    When I first saw it as a kid, I appreciated the story and what was happening, sure, but the nostalgic aspect was somewhat lost on me. I wasn't asking myse...( read more)lf the questions the film asks. But, as I've got older, I have pondered those questions. 'What would you do, being 17 again, with the benefit of hindsight?' It's a question whose answer offers up some rose-tinted nostalgia and some melancholy, as you could see, talk to and have fun with people you know you'll never see again.
    This is an aspect of the plot which is expertly explored in the movie. Some scenes are brilliantly full of double-meaning and cross-purpose.
    When Peggy Sue and her boyfriend and future husband, from whom she will be separated, pending divorce, are together, she and the audience know that the couple have spent years together. When she tries to connect with him as a 17 year-old, she has to put herself back in her teenage shoes and talk, as if at the beginning of a relationship with this guy. These challenges make for great scenes
    Kathleen Turner's performance is brilliantly observed. She somehow makes a convincing teenager.
    It's a brilliant story with interesting, engaging characters and fascinating questions to ask. It's funny to boot.
    I'm definitely a Francis Ford Coppola fan, but often, his films are met with mixed reactions, as he tries different approaches to filmmaking. With this one, he just assembled a great cast to tell a story - simplicity itself - and it paid off.

    A "do-over" movie which teaches a valuable lesson. You may think you would do things differently, but how many of us would repeat or nearly repeat the same foolish mistakes all over again.

    A bit dated now especially because of what she told the nerd about how portable stereos got bigger when we've now got i pods and other changes that occur in the future too. However if you can also get past the fact that Kathleen Turner is meant to be a teenager then she and Nic C...( read more)age give good, solid performances and with a terrific storyline it's worth watching.
