13 Going on 30

Synopsis: After total humiliation at her thirteenth birthday party, Jenna Rink wants to just hide until she's thirty. Thanks to some wishing dust, Jenna's prayer has been answered. With a knockout body, a dream apartment, a fabulous wardrobe, an athlete boyfriend, a dream job, and superstar friends, this can't be a better life. Unfortunately, Jenna realizes that this is not what she wanted. The only one that she needs is her childhood best friend, Matt, a boy that she thought destroyed her party. But when she finds him, he's a grown up, and not the same person that she knew.

-Look over here, Gina.

It's Jenna!

Oh, God.

Oh, no.

I've had enough aIready.

Hey, Jenna.

Matt, pIease. No more pictures.

Come on. It's your 1 3th birthday.

We gotta document it.

-Hi, Tom-Tom.

-Hey, Jenna.

Hi, Beaver.

How's everything at the dam?

-So how'd yours come out, Rink?

-Not so good.

Yeah, mine aren't so hot either.

-Tom-Tom, yours are great!

-Yours are the best.

God, you're so photogenic.

I'II meet you out front.

Do whatever you want. It's not

Yeah, it's too bad we can't make it,

because we reaIIy wanted to.

-Didn't we, girIs?

-We're so sorry.

Miss MeasIy's up our butts

-I couId write your report for you.

-Fabuloso.

You know, I can't beIieve

They're my friends.

Six Chicks are not your friends, okay?

WeII, aImost. And someday

I'm gonna be a Six Chick.

There's six of them. That's the point.

There can't be a seventh Six Chick.

It's just mathematicaIIy impossibIe.

You're cooIer than they are.

They're unoriginaI.

I don't wanna be originaI, Matty,

I wanna be cooI.

-Want some RazzIes?

-RazzIes are for kids.

ExactIy.

-Arrivederci.

-Au revoir.

-Hey, sweetie.

-It is not, Mom! Look at me!

-This is not okay. This is fataI.

-It's not fataI, honey. It's reaIistic.

I hate my Iife.

You don't Iook Iike girIs

...but you're beautifuI

in your own way.

I don't wanna be beautifuI

in my own way.

I wanna Iook Iike these peopIe.

Oh, those aren't peopIe, honey.

Those are modeIs.

''Thirty, fIirty and thriving. Why the

And there's that bum Rick SpringfieId

Ioafing on the couch.

And there I am, to make sure the

Oh, aImost forgot. Wishing dust.

It says, ''This wishing dust knows

They're here.

What do we do?

Oh, my God. Matt, I'm just

So there's room to dance.

Put some music on.

Do whatever you want, Matt.

It's not Iike I need a pIay-by-pIay.

See you, Ioser.

Hey, I have an idea, girIs.

Let's pIay

Seven Minutes in Heaven.

You can go first,

because you're the birthday girI.

How does that one go, again?

WeII, you go in the cIoset, and some

Iucky guy's gonna go in there...

...and do whatever he wants

with you for seven whoIe minutes.

And guess who wants to go first.

-Who?

-Chris Grandy.

-No way.
