Big



Another Classic.

I love this film!! Man, does Tom Hanks look young or what?!?! I loved the story behind this. Just the idea of waking up in a grown up's body. Though, it's when you watch it now that you're more mature, that you think, "hmm... they were talking about finger prints etc... and that social security number part was weird..."

But Tom Hank's acting was superb! It was like he really was a child trapped in a man's body! And when she wasn't all made up and had her hair out and was in the bottom bunk of the bed... man did Elizabeth Perkins look adorable or what!

Basically, a boy is at an amusement park and he makes a wish to be "big". When he wakes up the next morning, he's transformed from a child to an adult and his mum freaks out when she sees him but doesn't recognise him. So he leaves his home and tries to live on his own. He experiences so many different problems and fears and tries to make it as an adult whilst they try and track down the wish machine. He ends up getting a job and from there, things start to get interesting! Very very fun movie to watch!! Though when you think about it... she had sex with a 13yr old!!!
