Seventeen Again.. Again??

Remake better or worse?


Zac Efron stars in a remake of a classic story. In the movie he is an older man who while in highschool got the love of his life pregnant, so he throws away his college scholarship to marry her. He ends up getting visited by the Ghost Spirit and is turned seventeen again. Throughout the movie he leanrs more about his own children by attending school with them masked as a student. He also learns just how much he cares about his wife and does not with to get a divorce from her. Once he makes this realization the Ghost Spirit turns him back to himself and he is able to save his marriage and to better understand his children's lives.

Although this is a new twist to the story, I personally liked the Disney Channel's version better. It is also called Seventeen Again.

This Disney Channel Original Movie, Seventeen Again, starts Tia Mowry, Tamera Mowry, and Taj Mowry. This story is about a grandmother and a grandfather who have lost all contact with their grandchildren and their marriage is falling apart. One morning they wake up to find themselves seventeen..again. Just like their granddaughter. While the grandparents are attending highschool and learning more about their granddaughter and helping her with daily obstacles, their grandson is trying to figure out a way to get them back to normal. In the end the grandparents decide to renew their wedding vows and have had more personal experiences with their grandchildren.
