Powerful businessman Russ Duritz is self-absorbed and immersed in his work. But by the magic of the moon, he meets Rusty, a chubby, charming 8-year-old version of himself who can't believe he could turn out so badly – with no life and no dog. With Rusty's help, Russ is able to reconcile the person he used to dream of being with the man he's actually become.

It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.

a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

I am not a movie reviewer. This is a very enjoyable movie. Why did it cost $65 million to make this movie?

Imagine yourself at age eight. Now imagine you at age eight, is standing right next to you. This happens to Bruce Willis, in Disney's "The Kid".I must say that "The Kid" is one of the funniest comedies of all time. It also reminds yourself of what you were like when you were eight years old. That feeling is priceless, and Bruce Willis carried it out in the best way ever.10 stars out of 10 stars, and nothing less for one of my favorite Disney movies of all time. There should always be more movies with type of comedy, and I expect there will in the mere future.

I personally thought this was a lovely movie and very underrated. It is not a perfect movie, some scenes are a little over-the-top or go a little overboard with the sugar, and while there are many beautiful and memorable parts to it the music does have moments where it gets rather heavy-handed. On the other hand, the whole film is beautifully photographed and the scenery is gorgeous. The antics are funny, adorable and poignant, the script is often sweet and touching and the ending is suitably uplifting. I had no problem with the acting, Bruce Willis gives a very nice performance, and his chemistry with Breslin shows a man whose work with children comes naturally to him. I was charmed also by Emily Mortimer, but my favourite was Spencer Breslin who is wonderful. Overall, a lovely movie. 8/10 Bethany Cox

Imagine you have the opportunity to see yourself again as a kid. Now think what would happen if you had the chance to speak with your younger self, or even change him/you. Would you try to influence or try to change your younger self's beliefs in light of your future experience? Or perhaps the encounter would change your older self's perception of life and reality? Walt Disney's The Kid tries to engage this complex thought by putting "older self" Bruce Willis in a collision course with "younger self" Spenser Breslin (from The Santa Clause 2 and The Cat in the Hat "fame"). The result is a sometimes funny sometimes touching encounter, which makes you ponder about your own past, present and future – and truly believe it is never too late to change your course.
