Featured review
The same old formula, "Again!"
The '80s was a good time for this kind of movie. Obviously.
Not only was there "18 Again!", but there was "Big", "Like Father, Like Son" and "Vice Versa", all with the same basic idea - regaining lost youth. And in comparison with the others, this falls sorta mid-way.
Burns, as always, is great and in fine form. Schlatter does a great Burns imitation in his early scenes especially. Runyon plays basically the same character she did in "Up the Creek" an just about every other part she'd played in movies before this. But she does okay. Morris, slinky and sultry as ever, doesn't disappoint. Everyone else just kind of hangs back and lets the story take care of itself. But that's okay; it does.
Let's face it: you can only say good in a movie where Pauly Shore play a halfway tolerable person.
Seven stars. Watch "18 Again!" and if you have before, do it "Again!"!
