It seems strange that Matthew Perry would play a dad of two teenage children. He is getting divorced as he has resented his whole life. He was popular in school with great potential in basketball. He returns to his school and means a janitor who grants his wish to return to his y...( read more)
The main problem with this is trying to stomach anything that Zac Efron does. He's trying to steer away from the musical, but somehow get wrangled into yet another dance sequence in this film. The basic story is not all that good and it's been done before in the recent past. T...( read more)
Actually pretty funny and surprisingly clean! I like Matthew Perry, but I knew he wouldn't be in it much considering the premise of the film. Even so, I thought it was absolutely hilarious -- especially Ned (Thomas Lennon)! He cracked me up! :D
This was pretty cute. My daughter and I sat down to watch this together. Kinda reminded me a little of "Like Father Like Son" from back in the day with Kirk Cameron, rofl. The sory was reall nice,but sometmes it felt like the acting was "fake".Overall it was cute and somewhat ent...( read more)

Zac Efron was so funny!!! I love this film and i've lost count of how many times i've watched it!!! It's funny from the beginning and i just love the whole story of this film and oh everything about it is so funny!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Although this was critically panned, I really enjoyed it. I'm still partial to Jennifer Garner's '13 Going On 30' but this movie was still funny.
Cute and Funny. first movie where i actually liked ZAc effron and felt that he has potential to act and hope that he does not limit himself with another high school musical
Think Big, the Tom Hanks movie, only in reverse. There?s nothing original here, but that?s not a big problem. Efron's nuanced, intriguing performance (and a talented cast) make this movie enjoyable. A pleasant surprise.
