Brief Summary:

Seventeen-year-old Mike O'Donnell (Zac Efron) has been big success in high school. He seemingly has it all, when, right before the championship basketball game, his girlfriend Scarlett (Allison Miller ) tells him that she is pregnant. In that moment, he makes the decision to throw everything away (including basketball and a chance at a scholarship) and proposes to her.

Twenty years later, Mike's (Matthew Perry) life has come to a standstill. Scarlet (Leslie Mann) has separated from him, forcing him to move in with his geeky and wealthy best friend since high school, Ned Gold. His job is going nowhere, and his kids Maggie and Alex want nothing to do with him. While visiting Hayden High School to reminisce about the life he threw away, he encounters a mysterious janitor.

On the way home, he sees the janitor standing on he edge of a bridge - apparently about to commit suicide, Mike runs towards him, but his path is blocked momentarily by a passing truck. When he reaches the edge, the janitor is gone, and there is a strange vortex below the bridge. Mike slips and falls into the vortex, blacks out, and awakens back on the bridge. When he gets home, he discovers that he has been magically transformed into his 17-year old self. (by Adam Dwyne - abcdMOVIE)

What’s cool in the movie: The Movie is so natural in the story, even there is a fiction part that somebody could actually be 17 again! A lot of good humor inside too!

What’s not cool in the movie: Less bump in Zac Efron's face make up considering after the hard fight scenes with his daughter's boyfriend . Less hurt look like.. Not cool enough!
