like a lot of movie involve little kid and this start off real cute and likable . and then and after about a half hour or so and become the reverse . that certainly the case here in this time travel story ( which i usually love ) where an adult meet a kid who his really him at the age of eight . great premise and a great lead actor in bruce willis and but . the kid rusty be a smart aleck and whiny brat and willis rusty grow up now a russell get abrasive with his constant yelling . that be entertainment . no and thanks . young breslin have go on to become a very good child actor and be involve in a number of film include the cat in the hat opposite a more famous child actor represent dakota fanning . overall and a disappointing film and especially with all the good press this movie get when it be release .
