Plot:
A young boy named Josh Baskin, wish one day from an old machine to be big, despite the fact that he does not believe it is going to work. He is very surprised, therefore, to find himself in the next d...( read more

I did not want to watch this at all, but my parents forced me, and im glad they did. it was very good
What if one morning you woke up and discovered that you had become an adult? Tom Hanks portrays the youngster stuck in an adult's body and does a fine performance.
My dad named my little brother after Josh from the movie. He said that Tom Hanks plays such an amazing role in this movie and he loved the little boy in the movie and if he ever had a boy, which he finally did, he would name him Josh... funny, myself and my little brother are named after people from movies...... well mine came from a TV show.
A good ol movie, with Tom Hanks that is! The movie's a bit long however, but that doesn't mean I hate it.
Susan: I'm not so sure we should do this.
Josh: Do what?
Susan: Well, I like you, and I want to spend the night with you.
Josh: Do you mean sleep over?
Susan: Well, yeah.
Josh: OK... but I get to be on top.
PETER: I got it. That?s the guy from Big. Tom Hanks, that?s it. Funny guy, Tom Hanks. Everything he says is a stitch.

TOM HANKS: I have AIDS.
PETER: [Laughs hysterically]
The stairs in the Mn Science Museum remind me of the toy store scene in this movie... when Fred Savage is playing the floor piano.
Tom Hanks plays the perfect 12 year old!! Seriously, this movie is sad, funny, sweet, scary, and even a bit romantic! This one will be just as good the 10th time, as it was the first!
Tom Hanks is so amazing. Great story. The ending where Tom just says, "I wanna go home" and cries...awesome.
This was OK, but I thought it was gross how the Elizabeth Perkins character fell in love with the boy =S
I remember watching this when I was younger , and today it's still a good movie that's truly funny and ages well. Hanks is a versatile actor and one of my favorites.
when i wwas a kid.. iused to wish i become an adult for one day and let me watch othere adults ...how athey live ..howathey think and do things ..which we were not supposed to do!! but its really mind blowing to have seen this movie and realize that with time everythings changes and..your dreams come true.. !!
Pretty good comedy, one of Tom Hank's earlier films. About a young boy who wishes to be big, and wakes up the next morning as an adult.

A nice movie,that surely will grant you a great time,but nothing more.Tom Hanks acted well as the childish adult,and he is the one who carry the movie on his back.
i absolutley love this movie it is so funny and clever:) i suppose tom hanks is a big kid with an adults mind lmao:)
Of course the piano scene was a classic. Really cute movie. Also, Tom Hanks' first Oscar nod. Rightfully so.
A kid that gets all the toys he wants, and gets to review them? How amazing is this movie! A beauty to watch, and a touch of humour with little amount of serious kissing and luvvy duvvy - this just works out as a classic family movie without all the shitty toilet humour and animation that Disney Modern is.
An 80's Classic!
Tom Hanks was brilliant as Josh, a 13 year old kid who makes a wish from a old wish machine to be big. Jared Rushton who played Josh's friend was great too. It was nice to see how he stuck by Josh even when he was a 30 year old dude.
Yay Yay Yay! Again, Tom Hanks makes me think that he is usually very successful in "naive" roles. Look at Forrest Gump - a real blockbuster and masterpiece. And now, with "Big", Tom once again succeeded in depicting a childish characteristic inside a grownup appearance. Though this movie is not as good as "Forrest Gump", it is also not a short-termed pastime that can be easily forgotten. To start with, the plot is new and rather strange - but who cares, especially when the movie can attract the viewers' attention from the beginning to the very end? It all began with an odd machine at the fair, and then BUM - a boy became a real man the next morning and inadvertently scared his mother to death! :D And surprisingly, his naivete, which I had thought to be a real drawback, helped him succeed in life. Besides the really good plot and acting, I still don't like some minor details of the movie. That is, when Josh (Tom Hanks) kissed Susan - the time I saw this scene, I wondered what the director was thinking! I don't consider it to be really necessary. In other words, I think that little scene indeed spoilt the whole film! The gap between them was too large, and despite the appearance, Josh was still a little boy. How could that kiss be made? A little romance - but not in the right place!
Besides that little flaw, I think this movie is worth your time!
