Not only does this movie not hold up (long, boring, not very funny), but Tom Hanks acts like he's drunk, not 13. Also why isn't anyone talking about the fact that this is about a woman who falls in love with and has sex with a 13 year old?? lol... if the genders were switched, people would be up in arms.

A good film with excellent premise that almost teared me up.

The movie was amazing down to every detail. It showed Josh as a kid, and at one point he turned into an adult with responsibilities. The only thing I didn't like was that once he had a great job and wonderful girlfriend he gave all up to turn back into a kid.

I'd never seen this movie until today. Featuring a young Tom Hanks, this movie was made 3 years before I was born. Still enjoyable 37 years later!! (Movie was released in 1988). We're in the beginning of 2025. It's definitely something I'd share with my daughter. Family friendly fun and cute!

This movie absolutely gets better and more relatable the older I get. Tom Hanks is incredible as Josh Baskin...his mannerisms, actions, etc. are simply brilliant, and this film is a great early(ish) example of what he would be capable of in the future. A must-watch.

Great classic. It shows Hanks was a great actor ever since young.

I first saw this in my university years. Just saw it again today and it still stands the test of time. This is understandably the film that changed Tom Hanks’ career because he really makes you believe he’s a kid in an adult body. Funny, serious, emotional at times. Overall a great story from start to finish.

I swear 1990’s movies are the greatest made. They take such a simple idea and expand on it more than you could imagine and create something so amazing. The characters are so well crafted and the storytelling is spectacular. It might lack in comedy at some points but that’s just me.

One of the greatest films I’ve watched in a long time. Funny, heartwarming, clever. The script and storyline are on point throughout, you can’t get much better…

Never gets old! Endlessly fun body-swap comedy for the whole family. Hanks is perfect, playing a child trapped in a man's body. The toy store scene with the piano is a classic for a reason.

A heartwarming film with a really cool performance from Tom Hanks.

One of the high-concept self-titled films of the '80s, but its execution is filled with sweetness and charm. Tom Hanks delivers a mature and stunning performance. This is a movie suitable for all ages and a great work that can refresh and reboot one's perception of friendship and life.
