Who does not love a good romantic comedy movie? Okay, most guys wouldn't. And I know that not all women do either. But at one point in your life I'm sure you have at least seen one for someone else, am I right?


This movie is one of my most favorite movies of all time. I love Jennifer Garner and I love Mark Ruffalo. They are both my Man Crush Monday and Woman Crush Wednesday. This movie also has Brie Larson and Ashley Benson in it which I never knew until now looking it up.


At Jenna Rink's 13th birthday party she wishes to be 30 because of a special dust that her friend Matt gives her along with her own Jenna dream house instead of Barbie. When she wakes up she is 30 and confused. There is a naked guy in her place, her parents went on a cruise without her and a strange noise is following her. She finds out that her and Matt aren't even really friends anymore and she become a "six chick" with Lucy. She soon realizes stuff about herself that she didn't even know she could be. She then tries to make the best of it and changes everything around. But when her past self catches up she is left alone. She goes back to Matt minutes before his wedding ceremony where he gives her the dream house he made her. She takes it and begins to cry as she hears the ceremony. Magically there is still some dust on the house and next thing Jenna knows is she is back in the closet where it all began, at her 13th birthday party.


This movie is rated PG-13. It came out in 2004. It's a romance/fantasy if you're into that sort of thing. On Rotton Tomatoes it has a score of 65%. which is more than halfway. Personally I think it should be higher but that's just one woman's opinion.


This movie is great to watch when you are having a girls night in or if your significant other is down for something romantic and funny this will be great. My husband does not do romance movies! I can turn them on and he will either leave the room or play on his phone during the entire time. Good grief!


Did I explain the movie well enough?

Do you have a crush on Jennifer Garner or Mark Ruffalo like I do?

Do you watch this with your significant other?
