I sure did, Google. I sure did.

This weekend Zac Efron spent some time lounging and luxuriating at a Sydney hotel. Some of the photos snapped of the 24-year-old star were plenty provocative, which brings us to today's topic: his 10 hottest moments ever. Have you thought about this before? I have. More than 14 times, I think? I figure it's time to be authoritative about the issue since Zac is a sapphire-eyed stud in the vein of Jake Gyllenhaal, whose career in hotness we already covered.

Without further ado, here's my life's work: Zac's 10 hottest moments. Vaguely Nsfw-ish once you hit the top 5.

10. A crazed Efron charges at us shirtless. Run?

You'll be seeing a lot of Zac in various states of dishabille here, but this first entry is a doozy: It's junk-filled, serious, and direct. Ow, ow! If he weren't so nutty-eyed here, you'd see this picture in the top half of the countdown. »

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars

There’s no denying it, The Change-Up isn’t exactly the height of cinematic art. Instead, it does exactly what it says on the tin and entertains… Released on Triple Play Blu-Ray and DVD today, check out our review below.

Growing up together, Mitch (Ryan Reynolds) and Dave (Jason Bateman) were inseparable best friends, but as the years have passed they’ve slowly drifted apart. While Dave is an overworked lawyer, husband and father of three, Mitch has remained a single, quasi-employed man-child who has never met a responsibility he liked. To Mitch, Dave has it all: beautiful wife Jamie (Leslie Mann), kids who adore him and a high-paying job at a prestigious law firm. To Dave, living Mitch’s stress-free life without obligation or consequence is a world away from his sensible, settled lifestyle. Following a drunken night out together, Mitch and Dave’s worlds »

Director: David Dobkin

Cast: Jason Bateman, Ryan Reynolds, Leslie Mann, Alan Arkin

Certificate: 15

Special Features: Deleted scenes, gag reel, theatrical and ‘unrated’ cuts

As the latest addition to the canon of ‘body-swap’ comedies, the obvious comparisons to draw to The Change-up are Freaky Friday and Vice Versa. But the film feels somehow closer to Penny Marshall’s Big; it’s less about one character learning to appreciate the other than it is about discovering the positive aspects of your lot in life, which is just as well if one of the characters happens to be Mitch Planko, a truly despicable man-child with very few redeeming features. In some respects, the character (officially Ryan Reynolds but portrayed by Jason Bateman for most of the running time) personifies The Change-up perfectly: sure, he’s funny, but he’s also crass, obsessed with sex and toilet humour, and thoroughly predictable.
