Review of Big (1988) by Matt G — 14 Aug 2017
Big is a coming-of-age-&-then-regretting-it tale. In the beginning, it's sappy, stupid & generic...but once Hanks shows up? Pure gold. This definitely isn't hanks best movie, but it's maybe his greatest performance; he's so great at being a kid, but is even better as kid pretending to be an adult.
They so perfectly captures the sweet mischievousness and naïve awkwardness of a teenage boy in an adult world.
