Yes. What you have heard (from me) is true. Much like a superhot
butterfly emerging from its slimy pupa pod, Zac Efron has
transformed from a beautiful lady into an extremely beautiful, only
kind-of ladyish MAN. He is also funny! 17 Again is a
shamelessly formulaic but genuinely entertaining entry in the good old
adult-trapped-in-a-child’s-body genre. “Are you now or have you ever
been a Norse god, vampire, or time-traveling cyborg?” “I think I
would have told you.” “Vampire wouldn’t tell. Cyborg wouldn’t know.”
See? Ha! (See Movie Times: thestranger.com/film.)

Are you fucking kidding me?
Lindy West needs to not review/watch movies when drunk/high/blind.
ill pay 10 bucks for a zac efron movie when he has a solid nude scene
after the stranger’s beautiful review of hunger, the film about ira hunger striker sands, i figured, hey they have good reviewers on staff. ok so the hunger was reviewed by graves and not west, but west can be witty and funny, and truth be told, she is a very decent writer, but seriously this movie is completely unwatchable, it is total crap, i would prefer a water boarding session with dick cheney than this piece of crap film. do not waste your hard earned dollars, its not even worth a rental. its total crap, its like a turd at noon in the middle of downtown tijuana. not even the anorexic actor who plays his wife/best friend’s mother is worth watching. you just want to punch the guy youre so bored. i walked out. i want a refund.
I saw 17 Again and was pleasantly surprised at how good the movie was. Lindy is right on in her review.
