I was enjoying it until he begins a sexual relationship with an adult woman. And what does she do when she finds out he's 13? Not feel like a pervert, but check to see if he's of consenting age (16) as if she wants to continue the relationship. I was pretty disturbed by that.
If I'd seen it in the 80's as a teen I probably would've liked it. However, seeing it today as an adult, having seen other movies that encourage an embrace of innocence, that cover body- swapping/dealing with sudden adulthood (I'm thinking particularly) the original Freaky Friday - I'm just not that impressed.
Worth a watch I guess for the early scenes.
