Has anybody seen this movie? I never really liked Zac Efron until I saw it. Ha. Can you say hormones?!  Opinions on the movie? I thought it was pretty good actually, definitely could've gone without the cussing, or makeout scenes. haha. But the story line was good. In my opinion...

| it was a very good movie, yes there were some very inappropriate scenes however what he did for her was amazing, I wish that I could make that commitment for my girl I just let fear get in the way |

It's the tough things in life that make us who we are, and I'm a sensitive blockhead |

Actually, I saw the movie with a couple friends and it actually wasn't too terrible. It wasn't a favorite movie, but it actually had some good messages at parts, such as when the main character is preaching abstinence.
Plugged in Online had a cautiously positive review of the movie.
"And yet [the main character] walks into his high school not as a child, but as an adult. He's learned the value of sexual responsibility (a lesson many of his teenage contemporaries and some of his school's employees definitely have not). He understands the importance of wisdom and experience. And, as he looks at the world through his suddenly younger eyes, he realizes that all he wants—all he needs—is the adult life he chose and made for himself.
The HSM series talks a lot about friendship and love. But never sex. It talks about living for the moment more than planning for the future. And, for what it's all about, that's fine.
But 17 Again takes a different tack. It doesn't minimize high school's transformative place in our lives, but it adds a sobering—and in this day and age, pretty unusual—postscript: It's good to grow up."

I saw it last Thursday. I'd read the review on Plugged In, and honestly didn't expect much. But I really liked the story line, although yeah - some of the scenes weren't very appropriate. I am not, and never have been, crazy about Zac Efron. To me, he's just not that hot! I have to wonder if his lines in the 'abstinence' scene echo what he really thinks. I wonder if he's ever stopped to think about that, out of character. Just a thought I had!
It's not a movie I'd be quick to recommend, although I liked the story line, the other themes/scenes spoiled it for me. :S |

I don't really think Zac Efron is hot either...ha, I was just baby-sitting yesterday for some kids whose parents were going to see 17 Again. They said it was pretty funny. I MIGHT see it after you guys gave it pretty good "reviews", but honestly, I'm not too much of a movie watcher. People ask me, "Have you seen Movie A?" "No." "Movie B?" "No." "Movie C?" "No." It's pathetic.
