Powerful businessman Russ Duritz is self-absorbed and immersed in his work. But by the magic of the moon, he meets Rusty, a chubby, charming 8-year-old version of himself who can't believe he could turn out so badly – with no life and no dog. With Rusty's help, Russ is able to reconcile the person he used to dream of being with the man he's actually become.

Screw his dad.

Totally didn’t watch this for Bruce… oh dear lord he’s so good looking, I can’t even. This shouldn’t have been rated that highly if not only for the scene where he hugged the little kid and comforting him, gosh that scene warmed my heart so badly. I also like the concept of slowing down as we still have time to figure out our lives and even at age 40 not everyone has it figured out! Other than that, I think this movie has plot holes and was rather boring if it weren’t for the interactions between him and his 8 year old. Bruce definitely did a good job of playing the asshole because it made me feel that certain stuffs he said were absolutely cancelable and I got angry with his behavior HAHA.
