Description:

When 17-year-old Sydney's divorced grandparents visit simultaneously, it seems there will be no end to the bickering. Then little brother's science experiment goes awry and instead of preserving roses, he sends both grandparents back to their youth. The young-people-out-of-time story line leads to many "young fella" versus "dissing" language gags. Then doe-eyed grandma gets an eye-opening school lecture on the use of a condom--a funny, but unnecessary scene that gives the movie its Parental Discretion rating for language and mature subject matter. Of course young grandma Cat (Tamera Mowry) looks exactly like Sydney (Tia Mowry), resulting in the inevitable dating mix-ups, until young Grandma and Grandpa predictably fall back in love before literally plunging back into old age. This 93-minute Showtime vehicle for the Mowry twins (TV's Sister, Sister) and their brother Tahj is better than average, although its "street" savvy may leave older teens and true urbanites wincing. Ages 12 and up. --Kimberly Heinrichs
