The movie that I have been waiting to see! Out of ALL of Mr. Hanks' films this is the one that I have never seen but knew I needed to see! This movie can only be described in one word: BIG.
This is the story all about how his life got twisted upside down... Yes, I know it's not the right thing but once I started typing I had to keep going. However, it's not a bag way of describing the movie so I am going to stick with it. Really this is the story of Josh Baskin. He is a young man who is getting sick of being small and young. He makes a wish on an amusement park machine for him to be "big". It works and he wakes up as an adult. In a desperate need to find the machine to make a new wish Josh pretends to be an adult and gets a job, an apartment, and surprisingly a girlfriend so his cover doesn't get blown.
I am not gonna lie when I got to the end of the movie all I could think about was 13 Going on 30. I am not sure if that movie was based off of Big in anyway but it does feel like it. 13 Going on 30 aside I have to say......
WHY have I NEVER watched this movie before?!?!?!?! I could really punch myself for not doing so!
Whenever I have heard anyone talk about Tom Hanks this is one of the movies that always gets mentioned and I can see why! This movie is so charming, and so funny that I can't believe I wasn't made to watch it years ago! This is what I will be thinking about from now on when I think of Mr. Hanks in a comedy!
This is one of those movies that needs to be named a classic and treasured forever!
