Profile of Disney's The Kid

Disney's The Kid can be described as humorous, feel good, and touching. The plot revolves around a road not taken, introspection, and themes of unfulfillment. The main genres are comedy and fantasy. Disney's The Kid is located in Los Angeles. It takes place in the 1960s and in contemporary times. It is well suited for kids and a family outing.

Summary of Disney's The Kid

Russ Duritz is a success--he has looks, he has money, and he has power. The only things he's missing are friends and a conscience. But when an eight-year-old boy mysteriously keeps popping up in his high-security home, Russ finds things getting strange: The boy turns out to be himself at age eight--Rusty. Once Russ is able to even accept that the boy is who he says he is (with the hilarious help of Dana Ivey as a therapist under pressure and Lily Tomlin as Russ's assistant), he resists being associated with that image of himself yet again: a pudgy "loser" with a speech impediment. His halfhearted attempts to court his assistant, Amy, are accelerated when his younger self decides to take a hand. Russ thinks he's supposed to help his eight-year-old self become less of a geek, but Rusty might be there to teach Russ a thing or two about the things that really matter. Director Jon Turteltaub also produced this nostalgic, shamelessly emotional film, which features cameos by Larry King and Harold Greene.

The kid is great. BW takes a break from saving the world and plays a jerk for change -- not bad at all. Nice, but not much more to say.
THE KID: I have always loved watching movies starring EMILY MORTIMER, This is one of my favorite movies and I highly recommend it. EMILY always give 100%, and her acting is always very convincing and spot on. Plus I just love her accent. I give this...
