Great 80's movie, but I'd forgotten about the language and sexuality. I watched this recently with my 12 and 13 year olds, and they got to watch Tom Hanks act in his geniusly hilarious way, but they also got to see Tom Hanks exploring Elizabeth Perkins' breast, as a boy, for the first time. I tried to look at the scene from their perspective- young t(w)eens who are curious about how sexuality and love are expressed, and what this scene can teach them. Not a bad message, except that the characters, as usual, immediately hop into bed. One of the biggest messages Hollywood tells our kids is that foreplay ALWAYS leads to intercourse. That's not the main message I want my daughters to receive, and I hope it wasn't. I hope what they received was an evening full of laughter, which is what was intended.

its a good movie, but for some odd reason, a kid blurts out a f-word, and tom hanks grabs a girl's boobies... i don't know what the heck that was for, but who cares reccomend it for all ages

This movie looks like to scary or sad for a PG because a baby crys from something but the baby was horrable even the dad but the other people were ok.

Big is a wonderful, nostalgia-tinged comedy that adults will like better than teens. Much of the humor can only be appreciated with distance from youth. Fair number of swear words and one F-bomb, dropped by a 12 year old, which is why the film really isn't suited for kids under 13...and younger viewers won't laugh at Big anyway. One pretty suggestive romantic scene.

not bad, not bad. haven't seen it in years so don't trust me too much.

its ok its like 13 going on 30 with a guy....

You REALLY believe that Hanks really is a kid stuck in an adult's body. The acting is superb and the laughs are very high without being graphic. Plus it's got a great message about enjoying being a kid while you can. They need to make more movies like "Big" nowadays, but sadly nothing can be funny without being R-rated.

Well, I saw this movie in class (we were writing movie reviews) and everyone was 9-12. There was only 1 9 and 1 10 year old. I felt really sorry for them when the shirt came off, and also about the joke about him being "on top". Luckily, the rest of us were mature enough to watch sit through "the scene" (which is what we called it) and burst out laughing at the joke. I personally thought that this was one of the best movies I have ever seen, but be aware that children under 12 may not appreciate the whole movie.

I love this movie. You have Tom Hanks In one of his best roles. There is language and some sexual material but this is a family classic for sure!

BIG is a very funny movie with a great actor. I highley recommend it for a film to watch when you have a chance.

Tom Hanks was wonderful in this! It is a great family movie !

so funny! the walking on the piano part in the toy shop is the best part of a film i have ever seen! "run forest, run!" from forest Gump

Tom Hanks is very good in this movie. A friend recromended it to me and I do not regret seeing it. Very good. For: ages 11+ Peace out, i love dogs

This movie is a bit waste of time for me and my big sister we watched a bit but decided to go play our sega genies insted I think it is a bit too sad for a PG.

First of all, this film was good. I know about the rating and that it is not suitable. Stil, when the MPAA was rating this movie, the PG-13 rating didn't exist. I wouldn't want this to be rated R. Anyways, go watch it.
