Zac Efron stars in Charlie St. Cloud based on the novel The Death and Life of Charlie St. Cloud by Ben Sherwood.

Zac Efron plays Charlie who is overcome with grief when his younger brother Sam (Charlie Tahan) is killed in a devastating car accident. Charlie is brought back but finds that he can speak with the deceased, so he spends his time bonding again with his younger brother.

This role will certainly be a change for Efron, as he moves well and truly away from his High School Musical days and is probably better for him. Unfortunately though, I have a feeling that this one may end up being quite predictable – they gave away too much information in the trailer, which got me thinking maybe Charlie’s brother isn’t the only ‘deceased’ person he sees.

Just my thoughts, what do you think of Charlie St. Cloud? Let us know.
