Product Description

12-year-old Josh wishes he was 'big' and wakes up to find that overnight he has developed into an adult male (Tom Hanks). Kicked out of home by his mother, who doesn't believe his story, man-child Josh quickly gets a job developing new ideas for toys, with much success. He also finds himself successful with women - something he isn't quite ready to handle!

From Amazon.co.uk

A perfect marriage of quirky but incisive writing, acting and direction, Big is the story of a 12-year-old boy who wishes he were older, and wakes up one morning as a 30-year-old man (Tom Hanks). The script by Gary Ross (Dave) and Anne Spielberg finds some unexpected ways of attacking obvious issues of sex, work and childhood friendships, and in all of these things the accent is on classy humour and great sensitivity. Hanks is remarkable in the lead, at times hilarious (reacting to caviar just as a 12-year-old would) and at others deeply tender. Penny Marshall became a first-rate filmmaker with this 1988 work.--Tom Keogh, Amazon.com--This text refers to the VHS tape edition.

Possibly my fav all time Movie

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 22 May 2020

Verified Purchase

What can I say, I absolutely love this Movie and I’m so happy to own it, finally.
This is quite possibly my fav all time Movie. It’s a toss up between this and Home Alone. I’d have paid as much as £100 for this Movie if I had to but am really happy that I paid only £6. Absolute barging. I grew up in the 80’s and personally think that movies from 80’s/90’s are way better then the poor excuse for modern Movies. Here’s some classics that I’m planning on buying and you must watch if you’ve not already done so.
Home Alone
Stand By Me
Predator
Terminator
Top Gun
point Blank
Coming To America
Training Places
Forest Gump.
Porky’s

The Extended Cut is a great extra to a already great 80's classic

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 17 December 2017

Verified Purchase

This is my first ever Tom Hanks film and I have never been disappointed by him as an actor. He may not have starred in classic after classic but his performances have always been strong and grounded.

I have owned Big on Video and DVD and thought to myself when first starting up my Blu-Ray collection whether I would need this film on HD as its not like there is anything within the film that demands the HD format. The Region 1 DVD served up an Extended Edition to which I had never seen and decided this would be the only reason to double dip. When it was announced that the UK would be getting a Blu-Ray release I looked straight for the Extended Edition and to my 80's geeky faced delight there it was announced as the very first extra on the disc.

Now it isn't my favourite cut of the movie. The theatrical cut still holds my number one spot but to see the extra 20 or minutes of extra footage included in the film is very interesting but slows the pace down of the original cut so for that reason the first will always be my favourite which is also included.

There are many other nice additions to the extras including commentaries, deleted scenes, and other featurettes to make this the definitive release you will only ever need.

Exceptional service.

Wonderful film, a firm favourite and I'm so glad to own it! However, my main thanks and surprise is to absolutely congratulate and thank again the supplier. The first copy sent (a gift for family) was faulty with a couple of inches at the top of the film all lines, anyway on reporting it faulty it was IMMEDIATELY replaced within a couple of days!! Brilliant service!! Also advised not to bother returning the faulty copy which I'm reluctant to destroy in case it should go back at some stage, but really exemplary service, very, very grateful and utterly impressed....again, THANK YOU.

This was one of the must-see movies of the 80s. The adventure starts when Josh (played by Tom Hanks) is at a fairground and makes a wish through a Zoltar machine to be big. Josh wakes up the following day to find himself in the body of an adult. I rate this movie 8 out of 10.

Big comedy with a big heart.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 2 April 2011

Verified Purchase

Tired of being small, 12 year old Josh Baskin makes a wish on a funfair fortune telling machine that he wants to be big. He awakes in the morning to find that he is in the body of an adult but still the same young Josh within. Chaos quickly takes hold and Josh has to flee to the city. Where, aided by his best friend Billy, they hope to track down the now moved on "Zoltar" machine and wish Josh back to his normal self. But it's going to take time to track it down so Josh has to take a job and things are about to get interesting indeed.

Tom Hanks (Adult Josh) was literally just around the corner from hitting the A list of Hollywood. His performance in this smashing, bittersweet comedy bagged him an Oscar nomination and helped him turn that particular corner. Directed by Penny Marshall, Big is arguably the best of all the body-swap comedies that have dotted themselves along the plentiful cinematic road. Receiving critical acclaim on release, its success lies not just in its appealing for the majority fairytale formula, but also with the star turn from Hanks, astute writing (Gary Ross/Anne Spielberg) and adroit direction.

It's not just a ball of fluff movie either, in amongst the plentiful laughs and heart lifting moments, there's food for thought involving life and its pacing. And there's a big intriguing ponder constantly hanging in the air; viewing the world thru a child's eyes may actually make more sense, especially in business! These things are given impetus by Hanks' fabulous show, from his terrifying first night in the city alone, to the sexual awakening brought out by his relationship with Elizabeth Perkins' (sparky and effective) Susan Lawrence (the latter of which is smoothly handled by Marshall), Hanks convinces and takes us with him into his new confusing world. Fine support comes from Robert Loggia as the boss won around by Josh's playful approach to work, and Jared Rushton as best friend Billy gives the film a firm footed axis between the old & young Josh.

There's some itches there, such as the barely registered grief of the parents missing a child, and there's always the old inevitability chestnut to linger in the background. But they are but mere small flaws in an otherwise wonderful movie. A film that both children and adults can watch and garner some form of resonance from. 8.5/10

This was one of many movies in the 80s where adults went back to being a child.
It is a comedy of seeing an adults world through a child's eyes and is heart warming movie

The dvd Big is really entertaining and has totally stood the test of time. Tom Hanks is, as ever, very good and he is joined by an excellent cast making the dvd a very enjoyable watch. Lovely concept and I would totally recommend.
