Welcome to the RomCom Roundtable! In this episode, we break out the neon and leg warmers, turn up Whitney Houston & Pat Benatar, tune up the keytar, and find some pop rocks for a movie snack and our trapper keepers to take notes as we review 13 Going on 30!
This 2004 box office hit is often seen on the top RomComs of the early 2000s and features an all star cast with Jennifer Garner, Mark Ruffalo, Judy Greer and Andy Serkis and a soundtrack of 80s music classics!
Jenna wishes to be 30, flirty, and thriving after being humiliated at her 13th birthday party; she ends up time traveling into the future, as a 30-year-old fashion magazine editor.
13 Going on 30 is available on Netflix.
In addition to our thoughts on this film, we talk about the experience of going to the movies in an age where we have so many streaming platforms for film and television and nostalgia in the movies.
