Has anyone seen this movie? This is sort of like Peggy Sue Got Married in reverse. A thirteen year old girl end up becoming a thirty tear old woman, seventeen years later. There's a lot of '80s nostalgic in this movie. Jenna is 13 in 1987, and is 30 in 2004.
If you're a fan of time travel and the '80s, you should see the movie! :)

I know the movie has been decried as being too much of a "rip-off" of Big and Peggy Sue Got Married - but I personally think what makes the movie great is the ability to combine the two concepts. There's even a little bit of Back to the Future II in there, where Jenna gets to see what her future is like.
I guess it also combines The Christmas Carol and It's A Wonderful Life, even though the movie isn't Christmas-related. Although, there is a scene when Jenna is horrified to discover she hasn't been home for Christmas in six years.
I would like to watch Big, as I've never been able to watch it all the way though before. I think I like the idea better, though, of adding time travel to the premise. In Big, the older version of Josh has no identity - to speak up. It still sounds ineresting, though.
