Live your life over again? Maybe just a fantasy,right!!
Created: 28/03/06
This is the kind of a movie that you want to watch with your whole family. That in itself is great.
I really loved this movie. Not only are the actors & actresses among my favorite, but it goes back to a time in our lives that we cherish but secretly wish that we could undo some things, change some things, and do some new things. Imagine if you will that Peggy Sue, played by Kathleen Turner, wears the same dress that she wore to her senior prom, to her class reunion. Get real!! How many of us could do that?
Her estranged husband, played by none other than Nicholas Cage, is also there and you can tell there are still some sparks there. He is still as handsome as he was in high school, well maybe more handsome, if you ask me.
After being elected the queen, Peggy Sue is so overwhelmed that her heart goes into shock and she has a heart attack right there. She just passes out and falls to the floor. She is rushed to the Emergency Room and this is where she goes back to her high school years. She is different as she loves her little sister, she drinks alcohol, she tells off the girls that she never had enough nerve to tell off, and she and her future husband are just dating. Charlie wants to be a singer and is in a trio and they sing at some parties, etc. However, Charlie's father wants him to take over the family business selling appliances. That sure doesn't sound like much fun, does it? Well Charlie feels the same way. It just isn't hip.
Will she do anything different to change her future? Well, not really. She just remembers the old feelings that she had for her high school sweetheart.
However,she gets involved with the class genius and even goes out with him on his cycle. This is upsetting to everyone and hard to believe. She already knows that he is going to be famous later in his life.
The co-stars are also my favorites, Joan Allen,Jim Carrey, and Helen Hunt.This is a movie that you must have in your movie collection.
I don't really know of anything in this movie that I didn't like. The script is great, the players are great and it is very entertaining.

Or Will She?

Very few actresses can played themselves as a teenager. This a great movie about the choices we make in our lives. Kathleen Turner is at her high school reunion and has a heart attack then wakes up back in high school. It is just before she agreed to marry her ex-husband. She is shocked and sometimes surprised by her classmates in the past. I love the moment when her father brings home a new car which is an Edisol. I would recommend that you watch the start of the movie again after you see the end. Many of the comments by the classmates have a deeper meaning when you know what happened or will happen. Perception does affect how we views things.

Kathleen makes this movie a charmer.

This film is not gonna change the world but... its is a charming boy meets girl story. Kathleen Turner is great in her roll but its the rest of the cast (outside of Helen Hunt) that fail to deliver. I am glad I bought it because I can watch this 80's film over again because it is kind of story line that leaves you feeling good. To go back in time... awwwww :)
Kathleen really does a great job and makes this movie a charmer.

A great flick

This movie is one of my top 20 favorites - and it's a lot of fun to see the now-A-list stars in such minor, unknown roles throughout the movie. Peggy Sue is swept back into time to reunite with her old flame, only to have history not quite repeat itself. Set in the '50s era, it's a great drama with a lot of comedy flashes here and there. Highly recommend.

Would you do anything different if you had the chance?

I love LoVe LOOOVE this movie and always will. I love the fact that it's romantic and comical at the same time. Who hasn't had a "If I knew then what i know now" moment and wished they could re-do some part of their life over again and fix it. I like that Peggy Sue did get that chance but discovered that everything did happen for a reason and was meant to be. It teaches us to embrace the negative and positive aspects of our life and not have any regrets. This is an awesome movie with the best cast ever!! A++++
