Review of 13 Going on 30 (2004) by Dylan D — 09 Sep 2013
Perhaps it's time to acknowledge that a well-done Romantic Comedy isn't just for the girls. Films like Made of Honor, 27 Dresses, and 13 Going on 30 might not be any guy's idea of a good time at the movies, but they offer feel-good stories, interesting premises, and good entertainment value in the midst of the sappy romances and, yes, some tired but effective clichés.
If nothing else, sitting through these sorts of movies earns points with the fairer sex, and darn it all if some of them don't actually make for some pretty decent movie experiences. 13 Going on 30 might just be the best of the bunch.
Endearing, funny, and honest are but a few adjectives that describe it. Though far from the perfect movie, 13 Going on 30 may be the perfect Romantic Comedy, which definitely counts for something.
