GamerTab That was an excellent one.

Infamousta brilliant actors, brilliant editing

Orla Zuniga It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review

gwnightscream Bruce Willis, Spencer Breslin, Emily Mortimer and Lily Tomlin star in this 2000 comedy. This takes place in L.A. and Willis (Die Hard) plays Russ Duritz, a cynical, image-consultant who's about to celebrate his birthday. Soon, he's visited by 8-year-old kid, Rusty (Breslin) whom he learns is his childhood self and they help each other face their challenges/obstacles of the past and future. Mortimer (Scream 3) plays Amy, a friend & co-worker of Russ and Tomlin (9 to 5) plays his secretary, Janet. I've always liked this film, it's got humorous and a couple of heartfelt moments and Willis & Breslin are great in it. I recommend this.

Grumpy Pheasant Let's be honest: the only reason this isn't in the bottom 100 is because it's a "feel-good inoffensive family movie".It's drivel, but inoffensive drivel, and that's why moral guardians rate it so highly.The plot is so cheesy and so replete of holes it could be sold as Emmental, the kid character is thoroughly annoying, the message simplistic and deluded, the rare humour juvenile and the romance trite and conceited, the tone patronising.Frankly, this is the kind of movies everyone should find offensive. This movie is a gargantuan insult to the viewer's intelligence, and that should be considered a lot more offensive than any on-screen violence or nudity.

Atreyu_II This movie is one of the perfect examples of how downhill Disney has become in the last years.What I got from this was a cheap, ordinary movie that is no different from most mediocrity produced nowadays.It is, however, another perfect propaganda for Bruce Willis, one of the most overrated actors in all history. I don't think he's that great as an actor and I don't like him. The only movie I like him is 'The Sixth Sense', which is also the only good movie he ever did.As for 'The Kid', it clearly follows the standards and "fashion" of nowadays's films and as such it can never be compared to classics. But the worst thing about it is definitely Bruce Willis constantly yelling. It becomes too much and made me cringe so much that I nearly gave up on watching the rest and wished he'd just shut the hell up. Is that entertainment? Not in my book...Bruce Willis portrays a jerk, Russ. As for the kid, nicknamed "Rusty", he is nothing less than Russ as an infant. "Rusty" isn't the most captivating kid of all, but still I think he is quite insulted by Russ. Not only Russ is always yelling at him, but also there is a particular scene when Russ does a rude comment on "Rusty" just because he is a husky kid.

Hitchcoc I really wonder about Bruce Willis. He's such a tough guy, but he seems to have a soft underbelly. Because of these two qualities, he is nicely cast in this film. It's a movie about second chances. It's a movie about reconciliation. It's about facing the things we were always afraid of. Willis's character is successful in a financial way. He doesn't seem very happy, however. For whatever reason, he is suddenly thrown together with his younger self, an obnoxious but charming kid who is able to see his own weaknesses, and blames his adult self. It sounds terribly complex but we get the hang of it pretty quickly. There are a series of pivotal moments in life when things could go different ways and that's what the focus is. If we were given another opportunity, what would we do? Everyone must think this at some point. The byplay between Willis and his young companion goes from confrontational and whiny to precious and kind. It works pretty well. It was much better than I thought it would be. One downer was the obvious commercialism and product placement. It is rampant in this movie.
