Love this movie growing up. Everytime I went to a fair I was always hoping to find a machine like this. Still one of my favorite movies of all time.

Oh, if only I was still young enough to wish I was older! That’s the problem facing the young “Josh” (David Moscow) who just wants to get all the school and puberty malarkey over and done with. Well a strange looking slot machine called “Zoltar” offers him a wish in return for his quarter. Of course, he goes home to bed thinking it’s all nonsense, but when he awakens in the morning suffice to say his jeans no longer fit and his mother is mortified that Tom Hanks appears to have moved in! What the young lad didn’t ask for, though, was a grown up mind to go with his new physique, and so finding it safer to quit the family home for a while, he has to try to make a living in the big wide world. Luckily, he gets himself a job - and where better than at a toy company. His thirteen year old self makes him uniquely placed to offer an insight into the testing processes for their new products, and quickly he attracts the attention of it’s boss “MacMillan” (Robert Loggia). He’s impressed by the exuberance and ideas of his new employee, and so big “Josh” soon finds himself in his own apartment with all the mod cons his real self would want. His rise to fame isn’t universally popular, though, with disgruntled executive “Paul” (John Heard) less than impressed, but fellow high-flier “Susan” (Elizabeth Perkins) takes quite a shine to his fresh attitude and to himself. Now, of course, his adult self gets the hots for her too, but emotionally - well, watch this space… Hanks is on great form here as he presents us with the perfect childlike perspective. He’s nervous, anxious, naive, enthusiastic and the immaturity of the young “Josh” with long sleeves, dropped into often risqué scenarios, is often quite a joy to watch. The sparring with Heard also works well, and the romantc elements reminded me of those first crush moments in a toe-curlingly accurate fashion, too. It serves as a great reminder that life is never more for living than when you are young and care-free. The ending is fairly predictable, and I thought just a little sad - but I suppose it had to be!
