13 Going On 30 (DVD) ... released 06 December, 2004 at Sony Pictures Home Entertainment / Features of the DVD: Anamorphic, Dubbed, PAL, Widescreen / Jennifer Garner glows like a rising star in 13 Going on 30, a girly version of the Tom Hanks classic Big. Jenna (Garner, Alias, Daredevil), a frustrated teenage girl, just wants to skip past all those annoying adolescent years and arrive at a glamorous adulthood--and thanks to some inexplicable wishing dust, she does. But once she re-orients herself to a life as a high-end magazine editor with a sports-star boyfriend, she discovers that in the 17 years she skipped she became a not-so-nice person, including casting aside her best friend Matt (played as an adult by Mark Ruffalo, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind). There's no question that Jenna will rediscover her lost innocence, but Garner rises above the lack of suspense. 13 Going on 30 floats along, buoyed by her goofy sweetness. Her lovely looks are made accessible by her unfettered silliness; it's a winning combination. --Bret Fetzer

 ... girl who is immensely unpopular and wants to just skip her youthful life into her adult life where she believes that all of her problems will go away. So, with the help of a magic doll's house, she jumps into the body of her 30-year old self, a gorgeous woman who, due to her 13-year old mind is, of course, very playful and pretty immature. What's more interesting is what has happened during the 17 years that Jenna has no memory of. She is now a journalist for a swanky fashion magazine that she idolised as a chi...more

My Mrs Made me watch this film with her on Sunday afternoon ..... What is it about? A 13 year old makes a wish on her birthday and becomes 30. From here she has to fight to win back her best friend, beat the school witch, learn valuable life lessions and ultimately save the day (well get herself back to reality)! My Thoughts: Not really for me. I do not think that the lads among you will enjoy this film. It is more a chick flick. It was pretty unbelievable and very silly in places, but the Mrs seemed to enjoy it. Cast Jennifer Garner ... Jenna Rink Mark Ruffalo ... Matt Flamhaff Judy Greer ... Lucy Wyman ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review 13 Going On 30 (DVD): A good average movie (172 words)

Rating:

It is common to most people to want to grow up when they are small and to come back to the "lovely childhood years" once they actually are grown up. This paradox is what makes this movie quite enjoyable for a broad public. It has two things crucial or success: you can easily relate and find yourself in it AND some jokes are not bad at all. There are enough movies that step over the limit of being disgusting rather funny and this one clearly doesn't go to this category. It is said that averages are most attractive - because they get highest rate on average. Yet another paradox but I think that is what happens with this movie as well. It is not ...  Read the complete review

WHAT IS IT: 13 Going on 30 is a romantic comedy starring Jennifer Garner and Mark Ruffalo. 13 year old Jenna Rink has a practical joke played on her by the most popular girl in school, Lucy 'Tom Tom' Wyman, which leads Jenna to wish that she was 'Thirty, Flirty and Thriving' - a headline on her favourite magazine, Poise. As she rocks back and forth in her closet she bumps the shelf upon which is the 'dream house' her friend Matty has made for her birthday. The magical wishing dust Matty sprinkled on the dream house falls on Jenna and she wakes up to find herself 30 years old, an editor for Poise with a beautiful apartment and a very attractive if somewhat dim ...  Read the complete review
