Recent college graduate Ryden Malby (Gilmore Girls star Alexis Bledel) has just survived four years of higher education, but when she's forced to move back into her childhood home, the stress of dealing with her eccentric family, landing a job, and finding the right guy leaves her with precious little time to ponder where her life is truly heading. Shrek and Shark Tale's co-director Vicky Jenson takes the helm for a comedy co-starring Michael Keaton, Carol Burnett, Zach Gilford, and Rodrigo Santoro, and produced by Ivan Reitman and Tom Pollock in collaboration with Joe Medjuck and Jeff Clifford. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

As the result of a misbegotten spell cast at her high-school reunion, the "present" Phoebe (Alyssa Milano) disappears, replaced by her former teenage-delinquent self. Making matters worse, this younger, wilder Phoebe intends to use her magic skills for all the wrong reasons. This turn of events is particularly painful for Paige (Rose McGowan), who now wishes she'd never asked what Phoebe was like back in school. Meanwhile, Piper (Holly Marie Combs) consults her dad, Victor (James Read), to find out why Chris (Drew Fuller) is avoiding her. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
