Used to watch this movie like once a week as a teen. Mark Ruffalo's character was basically what I wanted to grow up to be, Super nice guy with his shit mostly together lol
I loved this movie. Jennifer does in my opinion, just as good of an acting performance that Tom Hanks did in "Big." Her ability to convey Jenna's innocence is amazing and you can really see the child in her despite the adult body. Just a really warm hearted love story and an underrated movie.
@@cowart73 But that is not the actors fault, that was the writing team. Remember, the comment is talking about how both actors are good at portraying innocence.
@@hotelzeta24 The point I was making is that Garner's portrayal maintains the innocence in portrayal and storyline, while Hanks's character loses his innocence in the end. He does portray a child well until that point. In fact, his portrayal of a child is so convincing, it makes the "sleepover" scene very disturbing.
I was a bit confused about the tall comment because isn't he shorter than her now? When she was 13 he was taller than her. Could've just meant that he's grown in general.
Mark nails all the emotions matt would be feeling in this scene. Annoyed, hurt and therefore closed-off but also nervous and happy to talk to her again under the surface.
Well, when the girl you were best friends with, but at the same time secretly in love with, treats you like crap because she was hurt by bullies in the past, that tends to happen
You can't just come into someone's life after 17 years and expect much, the 30 yr old Jenna didn't care about Matty at all. In fact, Matty was being really nice already.
That boi knows exactly how his best friend treated him on her freakin 13th Birthday! (👁👄👁) But Matty can't remember the Thriller dance moves .. yeah *nice tRY bud* (•- •)
Matt’s thoughts: oh god she’s hugging me why is she hugging me well we are friends actually no we kinda aren’t anymore this is so awkward someone please help me.
Mark Ruffalo & Jennifer Gardener done a very good job being lost besties & they love one another too!! I also think the younger versions of them were great & very cute together :) this is a must see for romantic people w/being young at heart!!! I've owned this movie awhile but it never seems to get old...re-run it a lot! Ciao
awww you can tell he was still hurt from her 13th birthday and everything that happened after that; but he’s still the the kind, sweet matty she knows and loves! Such a warm-hearted, child-like love story!
Exactly my thought too! I'm actually a little disappointed to learn that it's 'fluffy' instead, as Mark's response "A fucking pillow, coming right up...sorry." always cracked me up!
When she says “I was sitting in my closet…” the camera cuts to Matty and he reacts as if the moment that he tried to block out of his memory came back and he remembered EVERYTHING in a split second. Nice job, Ruffalo.
Movies like this are such a rare find in today's film industry. It's disappointing that we don't see more films with the same quality, storytelling, and depth as this one.
i like how u can see that she's so bewildered about whats happening but then u see she essentially starts to have a breakdown once she learns her and matt stopped being friends haha. the one constant person she thought would always be in her life is not
I love this movie so much. Not the biggest rom com fan but something about this film just hits the right spots. And the relationship and the underlying love between these 2 is just amazing. Really good acting. I rewatch this once or twice a year
Love this movie and Tom Hank's "Big". These movies shows what adults do just because they're adults. Kids have fun with very simple things and that should've been a part of Adulting 101.
I remember watching this movie back then years ago before Mark Ruffalo was The Hulk in The Avengers. When I look back at it now, I'm like I can't believe The Hulk before he was The Hulk! Lol XD He was great in this movie as well as Just Like Heaven. Now I wonder how many actors in Hollywood will be next in line to be a superhero in the cinematic universe of Marvel or DC?
That frosted window line says so much, it says that he really still loved her, even after high school, to the point where he would try to sneak a glimpse of her, even in their young adult lives. 😢😢
My daughter had one of these childhood friends. We'd always listen to all of his drama. Then after high school. My daughter had the drama and wanted to talk to him about it. All of a sudden now he's not available. When there were 4 years of high school she could have met other people, but it was always him around all the time as the "Friend". She was shocked when he wouldn't return her texts. She knew all of his "crap" she had to listen to on the bus back then. Sometimes it's best not to have a reunion at all.
kelman727 I just finished watching this and it wasn’t really like that. He said himself, when he was about to get married, that he doesn’t always get the perfect ending but you can get something close. He also said that he hadn’t had the feeling Jenna brought sense he was young. Nah, he just wasn’t settling anymore.
I think he was hurt settling with his fiancé. You could tell that he was making a bit of sacrifices for her. Like them moving to Chicago for her job. He didn’t want to do that but went along with it. Like he was content but deep down he knew that he would’ve been much happier with Jenna. But Matt was a good guy who wanted to do “the right thing” i guess and stand by the woman he already proposed to.
I didn’t notice details showing how little Matt cared seeing Jenna with him not hugging her back and immediately asking why she was here over offering her something before asking why she’s here.
Everyone saying that they used to watch it when they were teens and I was born in 2004 lol. I think I saw it for the first time when I was like 9 years, so basically 9 years ago 😂
Used to watch this movie like once a week as a teen. Mark Ruffalo's character was basically what I wanted to grow up to be, Super nice guy with his shit mostly together lol

It always bothered me in Big that he slept with a grown woman. She maintains ger innocence.

Lol Jenna thought Matt shut the door on her and she looked shocked 😂😂
It sounds like he re-locks the door when it closed, but then unlocked it lol
He was removing the chain 😂 but i thought the same when i first watched it
I died. She looked so put out
she was plucked
Well can ya blame him?
I love this movie!
Matty's got that look, like "you broke my heart before...please don't come into my life and break it again"
Rofl yeah when Matt saw Jenna again he was like jesus you...again. God your so beautiful it hurts.
Mark nails all the emotions matt would be feeling in this scene. Annoyed, hurt and therefore closed-off but also nervous and happy to talk to her again under the surface.
Well, when the girl you were best friends with, but at the same time secretly in love with, treats you like crap because she was hurt by bullies in the past, that tends to happen
He was like 37 in this movie. He looks so young!
sam rice 36 when they filmed it but yeah, a lotta actors are older than their actual role because they look younger than their age.
What?!
Sure his 54 now
He looks so fine too 🔥🔥
37 is not old
this is where my crush for mark blossomed
+Michelle O Me too; I've had a thing for him since I was like 12 and I saw this movie for the first time
Ikr
I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE! I literally just went to watch this movie cuz i remember he was super cute! T-T;
Michelle O right
His name is Matt....
He isn't too happy to see her at first. Honestly, you can't blame him because of the way she treated him at her thirteenth birthday party .
You can't just come into someone's life after 17 years and expect much, the 30 yr old Jenna didn't care about Matty at all. In fact, Matty was being really nice already.
@@mlo009 You're right and he had every right even as an adult to not want to talk to her.
That boi knows exactly how his best friend treated him on her freakin 13th Birthday! (👁👄👁)
But Matty can't remember the Thriller dance moves .. yeah *nice tRY bud* (•- •)
His like Oh God its my friend who I was madly in love with but she fancied Chris Grandy.
@@Disney65Fan Chris Grandy was not all that.
WAIT IM LAUGHING SO HARD AT HIS FACE RIGHT AFTER SHE HUGGED HIM AND HE WAS LIKE "yeah come in"
Lol liked

Matt’s thoughts: oh god she’s hugging me why is she hugging me well we are friends actually no we kinda aren’t anymore this is so awkward someone please help me.
I love his body reaction!!! His arms sticking out because he doesn’t know what to do lol
Rofl yeah when he seen her his like oh sweet jesus is that who I think it is.
Bursts in
Oh come in your alright,my fiance is gone to work
Mark is so adorable.
+William Beier she means Mark Ruffalo which is the actor who plays Matt
ok i thought i was the only one who has a soft spot for mark until this comments section
shikshinki I thought so too until I read the comments in his videos. We aren't alone.
I think everyone does 😍😂
Most of this comment section is just women fawning over Mark Ruffalo lol
He isn't happy to see her at first because she hurt him so bad. But once she starts panicking you see how much he still cares about her.
You can tell by the way she acts that inside she's a 13 years old girl. Amazing.
Jennifer did an amazing job playing a teenager lol. Love her in all her movies.
She's very funny and beautiful :)
This hulk is too adorable 😍
Matty is the kind of guy in HS you know you just gotta snatch away before other girls get to him.
That was my hubby 🥰❤️
Real love never dies they just brought it back
No Matty is the kind of guy you gotta reserve in advance before Puberty hits him turning him into a Prince Charming from a Cute Beaver. 😍
Chances are you probably had a Matt but never paid attention because he was in the friendzone.
Yes❤🥰

I could have sworn she yelled "I want a fucking pillow!" instead of fluffy lol.
lol no she said " fluffy".
Lmao yeah it kind of does sound like she said that. I was looking for a comment like this lol.

Movies like this are such a rare find in today's film industry. It's disappointing that we don't see more films with the same quality, storytelling, and depth as this one.
1:58 "Are you high? You've been smoking pot? Doing X? Falling into a K-hole? You doing drugs?" 🤣 Lol
😂😂😂😂😂
One of my favourite scenes!
This was a supercute movie. If only we all found our true love at 13 and held on to him. Wouldn't life be just grand?
I’m 31 never been in a relationship
i like how u can see that she's so bewildered about whats happening but then u see she essentially starts to have a breakdown once she learns her and matt stopped being friends haha. the one constant person she thought would always be in her life is not
I WANT A FUFFLY PILLOW!!!
SHE IS SO ADORABLE
I love that this came out when I was 13. A timeless favorite 💝
I was 11 when it came out. I regret having waited until the COVID lockdown to sit down and watch it
I love this movie so much. Not the biggest rom com fan but something about this film just hits the right spots. And the relationship and the underlying love between these 2 is just amazing. Really good acting. I rewatch this once or twice a year
I love how he bumps into the wall and says sorry.
“Are you high? Have u been smoking pot? Fell in a hole?” LMAOOO 😂😂 I started dying at his reaction of confusion.
Don’t make him angry. He’ll turn green and big.
Mark's a genius, the comedic timing of him hitting the wall just makes me laugh so hard !!!
His reaction @1:50 to "yesterday was my 13th birthday" is just golden 😂😂
Also love that when he backs up and hits the wall he says "Sorry" hahaha
Gosh, this movie is ancient. I remember watching it and thinking 30 is way too old.
And this is where my crush for him blossomed even though he’s way older than me 😂😂♥️
I can literally quote this whole movie.
Hahaha same
Even though this is a chick flick , I totally love this movie and I am a str8 air force dude .
Roberto Martin I'd love to get to know you!!! lol
I live in Miami but I warn you, I am really boring LOL

Favorite movie FOREVER, Mark is so handsome I can’t even.
I just watched this last night and I instantly had a crush on Mark.🤭
His chemistry with Jennifer was just so good - in my opinion.
I love this movie.💚
I'd like to grow old with Mark Ruffalo

I saw Big first
Mark is just so adorable ❤️❤️👌
These type of fairy tale love stories makes us feel happy .. Even though we all know that life is so far from being fair.
I was 11 when this movie came out, didn’t sit through it until the COVID lockdown and I sometimes wish for something like that

they were soooo great together in this

This movie is so lovely. Probably my favorite romcom.
And Jenna wipes out his happy relationship by changing history.
kelman727 I just finished watching this and it wasn’t really like that. He said himself, when he was about to get married, that he doesn’t always get the perfect ending but you can get something close. He also said that he hadn’t had the feeling Jenna brought sense he was young.
Nah, he just wasn’t settling anymore.
I think he was hurt settling with his fiancé. You could tell that he was making a bit of sacrifices for her. Like them moving to Chicago for her job. He didn’t want to do that but went along with it. Like he was content but deep down he knew that he would’ve been much happier with Jenna. But Matt was a good guy who wanted to do “the right thing” i guess and stand by the woman he already proposed to.
I don't he's happy with his relationship. He's still deeply in love with Jenna, not Wendy.
I didn’t notice details showing how little Matt cared seeing Jenna with him not hugging her back and immediately asking why she was here over offering her something before asking why she’s here.
I love the scene when he closes the door and build up of suspense when he’s unlocking the door 🤣😭🤣😭
Ahh...How many times I watched this scene just to watch matt😂
"A fluffy pillow coming right up." *hits wall* "Sorry" lol
Comparing Mark Ruffalo's character in "13 Going on 30" to his character in "Poor Things" .... he has come a long way. :)
She embodies everything a 13-years-age girl behaving! Brilliant actress 👏
Anyone else rememeber the bonus features with the scene where hes all "were not friends anymore jenna. Were not friends. Go away" 😂
This dude smashes NY city on the weekends. Cause he's green.

Everyone saying that they used to watch it when they were teens and I was born in 2004 lol.
I think I saw it for the first time when I was like 9 years, so basically 9 years ago 😂
Oh. Big Deal. You can watch any movie at anytime unless you are a child who is trying to watch something the is not acceptable for kids.
I love this!!!!!❤❤❤❤
LOL When I was a kid I always thought she said "I WANT A FUCKING PILLOW!" 😆😜
