I don’t care how old you are, no amount of aging makes it ok for you to feel the feelings you are feeling right now. But, worry not. You just need a large dose of “13 Going on 30“.
In this film, we follow young Jenna Rinck and her best friend Matty as they celebrate her 13th birthday. Things quickly take a turn when Jenna accidentally wishes to be “30, flirty and thriving”… and wakes up in an apartment in New York as her 30 year old self (played by Jennifer Garner).
We help Jenna navigate her new life as a 30 year old– the ups and downs, love, loss, etc.– and essentially watch her try to adapt to the new world, since all she knew was the 80s.
This movie helps us to remember not to take for granted the friendships and relationships we had as kids, because those were often the most authentic of friends we will get. We are also reminded to stay true to ourselves and maintain out childlike optimism in order to live our best lives. Not only that, but it also has a soundtrack guaranteed to be your next party playlist.
This movie can be found on AmazonPrime($3.99), Vudu($2.99), YouTube($3.99), Google Play($3.99), and iTunes($3.99). Happy watching!
