Zac Efron helps give the popular body-swap plot a fresh and charming makeover.

17 again!

17 again is a film based on a man who didn't really have a great start in life and that then reflected on his future and career. Mike O'Donnell (the main character; played by Zac Efron) grows up marrying and having kids with his high school girlfriend but things didn't really go to plan. While his wife is preparing to get a divorce, something strange happens to Mike and he is given another chance to go back to high school and not just to fix his mistakes but to stick up for his children. There are two children, Alex and Maggie, while Alex gets bullied by the worst bully of all, Stan. He duck tapes him to a toilet and tries to humiliate him in front of the whole canteen. On the other side, Stan is Maggie's boyfriend, Uh-oh!

I really really love this movie, the whole reason why I love this movie because it makes me realise that a little tiny mistake that u make in your life could impact your whole entire future, think carefully and wisely before making a decision. The genre of this move is a micpxture of quite a few, romance, teen, drama etc.

I would recommend this film to anyone who loves a good high school movie, plus Zac Efron is it, who doesn't love him?
