Amazon.com: 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 reorients 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

If I had seen this movie when I was thirteen years old, I'm sure that I would have loved it - but as an adult, I had to force myself to stay awake. The plot is simplistic and silly, and while Jennifer Garner has loads of charm, she's not a good enough actress to be believable.
Rating: - My Feel Good Movie
I just discovered this movie recently, & fell instantly in love with it & Jennifer Garner. I rented it, & then bought it on Amazon the next day. I loved the 80's clothes & music for one thing, and always love a good love story. It's priceless for the 'Thriller' dance scene alone.
Jennifer Garner is adorable as Jenna Rink, and her wonder at the glamorous trappings of her life as a 30 year old is beautifully portrayed. I also fell in love with Mark Ruffalo - where has he been ... Read More
Rating: - Are the other reviewers on Ecstasy?
So lame, so awful, I wouldn't even know where to start. But here are a few tidbits: Makes "Maid in Manhattan" almost look like high art. Might appeal to 9-14 year-olds but only 9-14 year-olds, say, circa 1982-1987 - and, of course, they would now, like this movie's heroine, be considerably older. One also wonders how the heroine could be friends with someone (the Mark Ruffalo character/T Heads fan)who's into much cooler music than the crap spewed throughout this soundtrack... except that would take ...
