Notes
Shot in DuArt color, release prints processed by DeLuxe. Location shooting was done in Cliffside Park and Fort Lee, New Jersey; New York City and Rye, New York.

Saul Bass designed the titles.

Estimated budget $20 million.

One of four films released between 1987 and 1988 that have a child/adult role-reversal theme. The other three are: "Vice Versa" (Brian Gilbert, USA, 1988); "18 Again!" (Paul Flaherty, USA, 1988); and "Like Father, Like Son" (Rod Daniel, USA, 1987). Previous to this mini-explosion in the late 1980s, there were several other titles that also dealt with the same basic theme. They include the original "Vice Versa" (Peter Ustinov, UK, 1948), which is among the first such films, and "Freaky Friday" (Gary Nelson, USA, 1977) which differs from the rest in that it focuses on a mother/daughter switch.

Editorial Reviews
"...Buoyant summer comedy....Hanks is an absolute delight..."
New York Times - p.C8 - Janet Maslin (06/03/1988)

"...Funny, warm, sophisticated and above all, imaginative, from start to finish..."
Los Angeles Times - Kevin Thomas (06/03/1988)

"Tom Hanks accomplishes something quite special here....He convinces you that he really is a 12-year-old-trapped in a body 20 years older..."
USA Today - Mike Clark (03/24/1989)
