    • Trivia
      Toward the end of filming, Zac Efron had appendicitis. At first, Thomas Lennon advised Efron that it was, in fact, bad wind and advised him to hang upside down to cure it. What started out as a stomach ache, soon led to him checking it out after filming and having surgery the same night.
    • Goofs
      In 1989, a shot of the crowd shows a student in the front row wearing a pink and purple band t-shirt by the 21st-century band Paramore.
    • Quotes

      Mike O' Donnell: Scarlet, before you go through this, I want to remind you of September 7th, 1988. It was the first time that I saw you. You were reading Less Than Zero, and you were wearing a Guns 'n' Roses t-shirt. I'd never seen anything so perfect. I remember thinking that I had to have you or I'd die... then you whispered that you loved me at the homecoming dance, and I felt so peaceful... and safe... because I knew that no matter what happened, from that day on, nothing can ever be that bad... because I had you. And then I, uh... I grew up and I lost my way. And I blamed you for my failures. And I know that you think you have to do this today... but I don't want you to. But I guess... if I love you, I should let you move on.

      [pretending to read a letter to Scarlet in divorce court]

    Surprisingly not that bad

    I have to admit I am not a big fan of Zac Efron, but I saw 17 Again expecting to hate it but actually it wasn't that bad. Yes, the story is predictable, yes the pacing is uneven and yes the ending is a bit of a letdown.

    However, there are a lot of redeeming merits. The soundtrack is excellent, and the script is surprisingly decent with just the right amount of quirky humour. The direction is good, while the acting is not bad at all. The characters are a little clichéd admittedly, but the actors do their best to make the most of their characters. Zac Efron gives a great performance in the lead and fits perfectly with the film's tone. Matthew Perry and Leslie Mann are both good too, but it is Efron's film all the way.

    Overall, not bad actually quite enjoyable. 7/10 Bethany Cox
