This is an amazing movie. I loved it and when I took my sister, she loved it.

Teenagers today go to schools where promiscuity is the norm and abstinance is ridiculed. To find Zac Efron preaching abstinance had me flying higher than a kite. These are issues our teens encounter everyday. All the content in this movie is realistic. And because it's realistic, I can overlook it because it was necessary to prove the film's point, meaning valuing the life and family you already have before it's too late.

Zac was brilliant. He emotionally connected with everyone, and I didn't find the connection with Scarlet to be all that strange because he's playing her husband as a teenager. I could understand her panicking, but he knew both plot lines.

Every teenager should see this film, and hopefully their parents will watch it too for a conversation starter. "17 Again" should be used as a tool to help teens make the right moral choices. Sometimes we find Biblical gems in the strangest places.

Zac Efron may appeal to teenage girls but this movie doesn't really show what he is capable of. I thought Thomas Lennon was the star of this movie, but then I am not a teenage girl.

I thought the obvious "chemistry" between the young Mike and Leslie Mann was a little disturbing and the kiss was unnecessary.

I was also disturbed by the frequent and passionate scenes of Maggie kissing her bad boy boyfriend although the moranl of the story was a good one, she wouldn't have sex with him and so he dumped her. Realistic to be sure.

Young Mike's speech in the sex ed class prevented that scene going into M rated territory. The condoms were handed out but to the younger viewers they might not have known what they were as they weren't opened. I was relieved about that. Mike's speech was good although most of the audience in my cinema ridiculed him and his conservative idea of loving someone and preferably marrying them before having sex. Well written.

Not a movie I want to see again.
