A delightful change of pace for Bruce Willis & Lily Tomlin. Loved seeing beautiful Jean Smart pop up in a small but fun roll. Emily Mortimer is a good balance for Bruce. And apparently it took nearly 7000 casting interviews to come up with Spencer Bresun as the dweebie, uncoordinated natural for the roll as “the Kid”. Entertaining & a great family show.

This movie was made in 2000 (when Bruce Willis still had hair lol!) — and Emily Mortimer was soooo young! It’s an engaging story about an arrogant, self-made man who has neither time nor interest in other people except as suits his purposes or reputation. A peculiar time warp puts him face to face with his 8-yr-old self with no idea why or how to get rid of him. No sex, no bad language ~ some really funny bits ~ great with or without kids. Highly recommend.

This movie, while not particularly owning a believable storyline, is fun, sweet, and causes a certain retrospection in one's life that is a terrific feel-good thing. I laughed and almost cried as I watched Bruce Willis wrap himself around this role with a competence that only a born comic could do. When he's playing in movies like Die-Hard, you buy into his "hero" role--especially when one adds the comic timing he has in those roles. In The Kid, he has that same sense of timing but with a softer edge that makes you love this guy! I give it five stars for a job well done!
A boy comes from the past to the future to teach or correct something that happened to him as a child. In the end the three come together the boy, the man and as a senior. It all comes about to put the man on the right path in life. It's funny, engaging and a great movie. I like the red plane from the beginning and you don't find out the significance of it until the end.

One of my favorite movies! It really holds up. I’ve seen it four times. I showed it to my children and grandchildren and they all love it and I love it all over again. I highly recommend it.
