...despondent 37-year-old man magically returned to his 20-years-younger body. In other words, he goes from being Matthew Perry to being the screaming-teen hottie, not just of his youth, but of young America. Efron, 21, dances, plays basketball and does comedy, romance and a pretty decent crying scene. His core audience came out to see him; but then, for them, attendance this weekend was mandatory. For Efron to have a sure shot at a long career, he has to hope that their older siblings and parents check the movie...
...nice and clean, with a little sex, propel Efron to a star movie career? His template might be Michael J. Fox, whose role in the Back to the Future films vaulted him from the Family Ties comedy series to lead roles in movies.

But how about the food? After all the FOOD (and spaces that serve it) are supposed to be the attractant. What student will...
...Faculty Club dining experience came to an end. A worthwhile adventure, but probably not worth blocking out a regular spot in one's schedule. Unless you are already as rich and pretentious as the target market, not much is to be gained from a visit other than a decent meal and a chance to practice some over-the-top politeness. And of course, the realization that you don't want to be these people in 30 years. Unless...
