Big Warmhearted bodyswap comedy starring Tom Hanks.

Plot Having made a rash wish at a fairground booth, 12 year-old Josh awakens in an adult body, but still very much the child within. Unable to explain the transformation, he escapes to the big city to find employment at a toy company and the romantic attentions of a woman far too old for him, at least on the inside. Verdict As a crowd-pleasing comedy it works. But it really could have been so much more.
