Summary - Great 4.0

This is one of the all time classics in the family film genre. Sure to please anyone from 9 to 90, Hanks was showing us his great talent even back in the 80’s. How cool would it be if we could have wished ourselves in to being adults when we were pre-teens? Not only that, but land a cool job, lose our virginity, and put jerky competitors in their place? Sweet. Besides being fun for a kid to watch, this film causes us adults to think about the innocence of youth, and how powerful being genuine and fun in a world of jaded-ness and silly office politcs.

Acting - Great 4.0

Hanks shows his true breadth in this film — easily passing as a 10 year old in an adult’s body.
