The Kid
Russ Durutz, a powerful businessman consumed by his work, is swept into a surreal encounter when, by the magic of the moon, he meets Rusty—a chubby, charming eight-year-old version of himself who can't believe he could turn out so badly—with no life and no dog. Guided by Rusty, Russ reconciles the man he has become with the person he once dreamed of being.

What a pleasant surprise. I wasn't expecting to enjoy <em>'The Kid'</em> as much as I did. Bruce Willis and Spencer Breslin team up to solid effect, in a film that produces amusement and wholesomeness. I find the premise very interesting, it's a cool concept. While they might not executed to 100% perfection, what's given is entertaining to see unfold. There are some very sweet scenes, also. Willis is, as you'd expect, the best part of this, but I think Breslin does a grand job too. The latter tended to do these sorta roles a lot, but there's a reason for that as he played them convincingly. Emily Mortimer (Amy) is also satisfactory in this, while there's a minor appearance from a younger Melissa McCarthy. Very good, unexpectedly.
