The rating for this movie is unfair, it's such a good little movie. Robin Williams plays his character perfectly. Not only does he have you laughing out loud, he also manages to tug at your heartstrings and make you emotional as well. He was truly a fantastic actor. I always feel a sense of sadness when I see him in movies since his passing. The kids in this movie are phenomenal, all of jacks friends, Louis, George and John John. But in particular the girls phoebe and Jane. They will make you laugh. Jennifer Lopez is great too. She really is a great actress. Just watch it, you won't be disappointed.

The beginning of the movie you can see lots of see through clothing and bras ect . Leading into a series of inappropriate scenes not mentioned on the parental guide . Ok storyline ruined by sales .

I saw this movie a few years ago, and had the opportunity of see it again this week, I think is an excellent option in order to enjoy with the family. The story, performance of each character, and the complete movie keeps you interested (even me after 8 years!!!!) through the different things that happened. An of course something I consider very important in a movie like this... the moral, that message you can obtain that will do appreciate each second in your live. But I really prefer recommend you to see this movie just in order to judge it by yourself. Definitely if you have the chance of view it, please... DO IT!!!. You won't waste your time!!!.

I saw this movie and said to my self did Francis Ford Coppola actually make this... Maybe he should have asked Alan Smithee to take the bullet, This movie was just out of this world and very cheezey and made me wanna burn the video tape and then throw the ashes in the toilet but i would have ended up paying for it at the video store.

This film was really enjoyable. I think Robin Williams is a great actor and played to role of a 10 year old kid very well. I think that the kids who play Louis, Eddie and that lot are really good. The film was very emotional. I'd advise that family's and all ages watch this film. It was very funny especially when the children where calling on Jack constantly. I like the way Jack can do adult things when he is only 10. I also find it funny the way Jack has romantic moments with his best friend's mum. I also like it when all the boys give Bill Cosby skin, it shows he's down to earth with the kids. Also children will find it funny when they eat the disgusting mixture in the tree house. Overall i loved this film and advise you watch it.

Throughout watching this film i was next to crying...it also made me laugh, and really care for the character!i think the hole idea of being accepted as a person when you have disabilities is an amazing story line ....Robin Williams really captures the essence of Jack and plays him really well!!!And on scenes when Jacks face lights up with excitement because he has new friends,i,felt sooo happy for him(even though he isn't real!)It just shows you how much life is really worth and that it is to short...we should live life like we only have a few months left.....just like Jack did and even though he just made it to graduate, he gave a fantastic speech and still had his friends beside him all the way.So i gave this moving film a 10/10 because it made me laugh, cry and wont to give "Jack" a hug to show him that he is NOT alone!!!

I used to love this movie as a child, i can remember renting it weekly at my local video shop. the fart scene in the cubby house always had me in stitches. now as a 22 year old, having sadly forgotten about this underrated gem, until i remembered it a few weeks ago and hunted for it on DVD. when hunting for some old videos i found a copy that must have somehow snuck into my video collection and i dusted off the old vcr player sat back and watched it. i laughed, i cried, i remembered my childhood. i think what Francis Ford Copella has done is an amazing achievement, it is truly hard for a movie to achieve what Jack does, it's fun for children, and adults who are young at heart. but it also reached me on another level, it reached me on a level of meaning and emotion, it taught me life is short, in a way no other movie has reached me.
