Fable about a divorced woman (Turner) waking up 25 years back in high school, giving her the chance to change her future. Compared with other similarly nostalgia fueled fantasies like Back to the Future or Big, this one is more about characters' relationships. It's funny seeing familiar leading men like Nicolas Cage or Jim Carrey at such an early stage of their career. As a rom-com that happens to feature time travel, it's good enough but I wouldn't call it a must-see.

Lightweight time travel comedy that lacks the wit or invention of it's contemporary Back To The Future. There are some OK ideas, but Kathleen Turner lacks star presence and Nicolas Cage puts in one of the worst performances I've ever seen.
