Probably the best of the 4 comedies that came out around the same time., 1 October 2000
Author: lartronic from Akron, Ohio

Although "Big" is on the same level. This a great comedy that isn't only funny, but also good for the family. Judge Reinhold and Fred Savage are great in their roles, I don't think 2 better actors could have been picked. The movie in whole is a lot of fun, no deep thinking, it's just easy to watch. A good movie for all.
