I am a big movie fan. I have thousands of old classic movies I could recommend having spent 50+ years watching them. Some are well-known. Many are oldie goldies. Many are modern movies that I feel are underrated.
I'll start with a relatively recent one that I have watched a number of times.
'17 Again'
The premise has been done over and over and over again, either backwards or forwards. Young person becomes old, or old person becomes young. Nothing original in the concept.
This one is very sweet though. Matthew Perry is failing at life. His job, his marriage, as a Dad. He gets the chance to do it over again. Zac Efron does an amazing job as the young protagonist, and the lovely Leslie Mann is a treat as his conflicted wife. Add in Thomas Lennon as Efron's fake Dad, and Melora Hardin as the sexy teacher, and it's really a very enjoyable little movie.
