There is a condition similar to the movie called progeria. But it doesn't make you look 40 and is actually deadly usually around adolescence. You lose your hair, you're very short, you look like an elderly person.
There was someone with that condition who lived a town over from me. I saw him once when i was a kid at a TGI Fridays and i had never heard of that condition or seen anyone like that so i was really freaked out. I still feel bad about it
I got a funny story with this movie. I saw Jack when it came out in the theater with my mom and my brother. When we left the theater and got in our car, the Billy Joel song "Only the Good Die Young" was playing on the radio. the 3 of us bust up laughing.
A movie doesn't stop being bad just because the lead actor died. I love Robin Williams but just because he's dead doesn't mean he or his work is immune from criticism.
I watched this film. And I feel more impactful of Robin Williams films. More so now. Childhood is the best time of our lives. And robin ckesr it very well. The ending dose show though what it all means. It might be too much, crindgey or whatever. It's that I hope one day the adults will have the opportunity to be like their 20s and in their 30s with exploration and wonder. That there is more things.
I agree especially with this movie. A movie with Williams directed by Coppola you would expect to be better but in the case of actor and director both these great men have left us behind much better.
@@spencerhensley5495hey, I actually liked this movie… it was good, very heartwarming. Despite it being considered one of the worst Robin Williams movies 🫤

If Francis Ford Coppola directed a movie with this kind of premise, I would've expected something more along the lines of The Curious Case of Benjamin Button.
@@orangeslash1667 if this were Coppola's only comedy I would agree he couldn't direct a comedy to save his life. But he actually can. He directed Peggy Sue Got Married 10 years earlier and that was a great comedy.
@@blaisetelfer8499 He was behind NIMH which is considered to be a big favorite of movie reviewers. An American Tail and All Dogs were decent as well as Anastasia. Rock-a-Doodle was crap, Thumbelina was mediocre, Pebble and the Penguin was rushed and Titan AE is just plain forgettable.
one of them killed himself and had a handful of kind of terrible jokes although is loved and known to be a great person regardless. meanwhile the other is alive and a rapist and literally made a joke alluding to drugging women at one point. so. touchy in incredibly different ways
That scene was so disgusting that I atleast had to put the movie on pause when I was in the midst of eating and then play it when I was done. Funny thing is Cosby didn't even eat it and he fooled the kids into thinking he did. As an actor he pulled that off very well.
Nostalgia critic: What kind of ten year old sleeps with their parents? Me: ...I did. I had chronic nightmares from my major depressive disorder so I couldn't sleep alone.
When I was 10, the only reason I had to sleep with my mom, it's because my mom, & my sister, had to share two beds when we use to live with the grandparents aka my Mom's parents.
This movie is just Robin Williams pretending to be kid rather than a kid being played by Robin Williams. If you view it as the former it makes way more sense.
Actually, I think you are right. 10 year olds act childish, but try to act adult when together. Since Jack never socialized, he doesn't have that façade, and just keeps acting like an innocent child.
***** Eh, that wasn't as weird once upon a time. I knew one or two kids like that at that age, but I think it was really an act, probably from seeing their older brothers or cousins or neighbors act that way and think that perving was how to be "adult".
I'm 24 years old and I still sleep with a stuff animal in my bed. I don't really cuddle with it or anything it just is in the bed with me It was a gift from a very very very dear friend I'll never forget
*Trust me.. Nostalgia Critic, of ALL people, is the LAST person you need to explain yourself to. There's a reason why EVERYONE left Channel "Awesome".*
I just turned 30 and I sleep with a total of 16 cuddly toys. They all have their own names and backstories. I'm a little bit of a collector and they're mostly for decoration. The latest addition to the "family" is Hunter, an African hunting dog, a gift from my boyfriend when we went to the zoo for my birthday.
More or less, although that plot was more magical. It worked better because they didn't try to make up bullshit medical reasons that really stretch suspension of disbelief. Funny, because the magical plot of Big was easier to believe.
Big was a great movie and Tom Hanks was a really convincing 12 year old in a 30 year old's body. You feel really bad for him when he's in that sketchy hotel room and bawling. Jack is just... uncomfortable
Fran's voice definitely has a lot of personality. It's perfect for showbiz, in my opinion, because it's unique and instantly identifiable. Hell, Lucile Ball had a unique voice as well.
That's basically my line of thinking of what those three questions ten-year-old's possibly did. Cuddle with a plush doll or an object they hold dear, maybe. Wear silly pajamas, probably not. (unless you might be a college girl) Sleep in an adult's bed because you had a bad dream,.... i think critic put that best 4:10
Boglenight Oh man, I'd love to here that remake of Planet of the Apes! Dammit 1950s you needed to make a Planet of the Gays musical, with Troy McClure, who you might remember from such offensive satirical remakes as Willy Wonka and the Fudge Packers.
Robin Williams, to me, always seemed like one of those magical people who never forget what it's like to be a kid so for him to play one makes a lot of sense. This could be how he acted as a child, an attention seeker could potentially act younger if it gets them more attention. Also, he grew up in a different time so he could've been a more innocent ten-year-old as opposed to the cynical ones that exist today. All of these are things to take into consideration.
Wait does today mean the 90s when this movie was released or this decade? I’m guessing really it applies to the 90s and yea kids in the 90s were different than 2020 or 1950 etc times change but some things don’t like friendships and fitting in being different accept your fate like he has to accept he won’t have a lot of time so he made the most of it
I remember the 90s pretty well too as a kid for dangerous religious cults, racial and class divisions, El Niño, Lewinsky-gate, school and workplace violence, disaffected youth, and the whole Y2K scare. It wasn’t always sunshine, rainbows, and unicorns.
"When Jack asks Jennifer Lopez if HE would go with him to the dance." ...Not even gonna fix that slip of the tongue in post? Was that some "Jennifer is a dude" joke that totally flew over my head or something?
It's very rare for me to declare the premise of a movie unworkable from the start, but in this case, I can make a pretty easy exception. This was a bad idea. Casting wouldn't have made a difference, revising the script wouldn't have made a difference, using more appropriate music wouldn't have made a difference - a 10-year-old boy with the body of a 40-year-old man is doomed from the start.
I think it would have worked if the premise was taken seriously as an exploration rather than a safe family movie. You know, if it was a story about his life, death and the struggles he had to go throughout his life
One thing to keep in mind about Jack is that he was sheltered for most of his life and not allowed to interact with other kids his age, so it would make sense that he may behave a few years younger than he actually is.
@@ARCtheCartoonMaster what you are saying is also true but remember his parent’s mindset in this movie was to segregate him from others since he was different
Here's the biggest flaw to the plot,Jack's bizarre medical condition is that he ages rapidly but somehow his brain doesn't age at the same time that his entire body does. It makes no sense as the movie explains that his body has a super fast development rate, so shouldn't he behave more like an adult? The movie didnt explain it at all, and I watched this movie growing up. It's like the makers of this film wanted to remake Big but couldn't get permission to do so or something because it felt similar to Big, I watched that as well. However Big was good because he was actually a kid who magically was transformed into an adult, it's a kid trying to be an adult until he's able to be a kid again. I love Robin Williams but looking back on his movies, and I watched every family friendly one, most of them do kind of suck and I wouldn't watch them again.
We don't behave like an adult because our brains just naturally grow into adult behavior biologically. Well, okay, there are SOME differences, the parts of our brain responsible for impulse control and empathy are not fully developed until about 25, and brain plasticity is higher in kids, but the overwhelming influence is social. It takes years to just learn stuff and learn how people interact and to fit in. Maybe Jack should have acted a little bit older than his peers, a year or two, but that's about it.
I actually really liked this film, if not only for the final speech. it was cheesy of course but seemed less egregious than some of the other glurgy Robin Williams films
When you showed the front for Hugo I realized it! all modern movies are taking the lighting effects of Christmas movies! But instead of having a dark atmosphere and night time to illuminate the surroundings and set a soothing calm tone through candles and street light they instead put everything in the middle of summer and instead of candles and street lights, they have pointless bright lights shining on everything for no reason while adding explosions. And also bathing everyone in car polish until they are as blinding as the sun
The mom looked A LITTLE too happy to hear that Jack wanted "dirty magazines". It make me think that there's more to the story between them than what the movie is telling me, lol
Physically I think she's 'alright'...Though she seems like one of those people you want to anger fuck in an attempt to silence them, and as your anger fucking them they continue talking in that irritating voice which angers you more, so you anger fuck even harder. Then, before you know it, you've anger fucked her so vigorously that you've both had the best sex ever, then you're trapped as you keep going back for more to which eventually, whenever you hear a veloceraptor screech, you get an erection because it reminds you of the ballshatteringly amazing anger sex you had with Fran Dresher. Ultimately, this leads to you forming an obsession with rule 34 veloceraptor images. You know it's wrong, but it's the only way you can get stiff these days. Long nights spent tugging it whilst thinking of that distinct mating call only heard from the prehistoric veloceraptor and Fran Dresher. Every waking moment is spent trying to erase any trail back to your new found love for scaley themed porn until it eventually gets too much, you can't hide it, and you find yourself at a furry convention. So yea, overall I think she looks okay, but I'll give it a miss.
***** If that's what you want to believe, then you believe it, champ! Hopefully, attacking somebody on the internet who has done nothing to you has increased your self esteem enough that you can finally leave the safe space of your parents house. Go you! Yay!
Tao I wasn't insulting you; I was just pointing out how ridiculous your comment was. Someone who actually has sex wouldn't talk like that. If that was some attempt to show off, I wish you the best of luck in your future endeavors and hope that the way you express yourself online is in no way indicative to how you act in your day-to-day life. High school must be tough right now, I'm sure. But just be aware that what you think is hilarious is actually quite sick. Even as a complete stranger to you, there's some concern.
3:25 "We can still try for an Emmy!" Um........ the Emmys are solely TV-based. You mean the Golden Globes? They're both, so... :\ But I see what he meant!
When I was ten I did still sleep with my parents when I had a bad dream but I sure as hell kept quiet about it. I didn't want anyone else to know I still slept in my parents' bed when I had a nightmare lol
Her costume was the Wicked Witch of the East. You can tell by the stockings and ruby slippers. That was a creative costume choice, and you didn't even give the movie credit, instead making a stupid Helena Bonham Carter joke. You also skipped over the really weird and out of place post-birth intro scenes with various science-ficiton like equipment inexplicably probling the baby in various ways.

Absolutely. That’s also something to think about with all bad films. Yeah they may suck to watch but you know the casts had the best of times during filming.
Possible explanation for a 10-year-old acting like a 5-year-old: He has been raised in isolation from other kids and most other people in general.
I like to think his physicality multiplied by 4, but his mentality decreased by 4, so he was 40, 10, and 6 at the same time.
Both arguments make sense
yea, that's what i i was about to say. Plus him mom really treated him like a 5year old..
I am also convinced this movie was about soft shoeing pedophilia . Making it seem to cool for a 40 year old white man to be in a clubhouse talkin about penises with 10 year old boys smh
I think Robin Williams is Acting Mentally Challenged, cause there are 40 Year Old People with the IQ of a 10 year old.

Also, he grew up in a different time so he could've been a more innocent ten-year-old as opposed to the cynical ones that exist today. All of these are things to take into consideration.
Wait does today mean the 90s when this movie was released or this decade? I’m guessing really it applies to the 90s and yea kids in the 90s were different than 2020 or 1950 etc times change but some things don’t like friendships and fitting in being different accept your fate like he has to accept he won’t have a lot of time so he made the most of it
I was 12 back then and liked the movie. Don't forget, it was the 90s, dark times.
Apostolos Christou So true!
Why was 90s the dark times? If so, I don't think the 2010s and 20s are any better in terms of Cinema
I remember the 90s pretty well too as a kid for dangerous religious cults, racial and class divisions, El Niño, Lewinsky-gate, school and workplace violence, disaffected youth, and the whole Y2K scare. It wasn’t always sunshine, rainbows, and unicorns.
My Jack?
what's that line from again?
Hook.
+meghan means Hook
+meghan means Hook.
+SnipingIsFun yes! it was at the tip of my tongue
As a young one watching this, I was confused and scared at the same time, the fact of a n40 yr old man in an 10 yr body just creeps me out.
No, that's Children of the Corn.
google "progeria", please!
is it just Benjamin Button syndrome? or is it something totally different
***** I don't think that syndrome exists.
Priscilla Ferrari
nope, looked it up its the other name for
Progeria
The twenty minutes you call useless is him "realizing" that he can't fit in to normal society and should stay home.
I think you right. However, it's pretty bonkers.
Bill Jacobs It is not well done.
Yes. I mean, remember when he couldn't go to the dance with a teacher? Well that had to be resolved with a dance with Fran Drescher.
We already knew that though it's very obvious
@@Treyman-yi7ei
it's not obvious because it's not true. but HE comes to believe it's true during those 20 minutes.
Let it be known that the Harry Potter bit had me laughing for roughly 45 minutes. I was in pain.
"When Jack asks Jennifer Lopez if HE would go with him to the dance." ...Not even gonna fix that slip of the tongue in post? Was that some "Jennifer is a dude" joke that totally flew over my head or something?
I can't stop laughing at that Harry Potter joke.
YESSS!!!
12:00 Boy, scary how ironic that is.
It's very rare for me to declare the premise of a movie unworkable from the start, but in this case, I can make a pretty easy exception. This was a bad idea. Casting wouldn't have made a difference, revising the script wouldn't have made a difference, using more appropriate music wouldn't have made a difference - a 10-year-old boy with the body of a 40-year-old man is doomed from the start.
Kurtis C. Billy Madison did okay man
Kurtis C. Also the movie big with Tom hanks
I think it would have worked if the premise was taken seriously as an exploration rather than a safe family movie. You know, if it was a story about his life, death and the struggles he had to go throughout his life
One thing to keep in mind about Jack is that he was sheltered for most of his life and not allowed to interact with other kids his age, so it would make sense that he may behave a few years younger than he actually is.
Rest in peace, Robin! You were a great actor!
so, we have a deceased person and an offender in the same movie.
Deceased and the offender, now there's a buddy cop movie with a twist.
+Ciaran Maher
I'd pay to see that movie.
ones a loose cannon who took it too far but couldn't get enough and the other has a hard time with with keeping it not hard on school campus
You could say the same for Michael Jackson's MoonWalker!
8O
Allegedly
As a Stephen Sondheim and Elmar Burnstien fan I can appreciate you playing the jets theme over the bully's.
A real 10 year old kid would go into his room and go:
"Yeah, no school"
Not in that sense where the only people he’s expected to interact with are his parents
Ikr he can still play with his friends outside school
@@ARCtheCartoonMaster what you are saying is also true but remember his parent’s mindset in this movie was to segregate him from others since he was different
4:47 i can't stop laughing. Everytime I calm down I think about it & start up another laughing fit. I fucking can't. 🤣
Interesting how this movie stars a man who tragically died in 2014 and a man who in 2014 we wish died
Here's the biggest flaw to the plot,Jack's bizarre medical condition is that he ages rapidly but somehow his brain doesn't age at the same time that his entire body does. It makes no sense as the movie explains that his body has a super fast development rate, so shouldn't he behave more like an adult? The movie didnt explain it at all, and I watched this movie growing up. It's like the makers of this film wanted to remake Big but couldn't get permission to do so or something because it felt similar to Big, I watched that as well. However Big was good because he was actually a kid who magically was transformed into an adult, it's a kid trying to be an adult until he's able to be a kid again.
I love Robin Williams but looking back on his movies, and I watched every family friendly one, most of them do kind of suck and I wouldn't watch them again.
We don't behave like an adult because our brains just naturally grow into adult behavior biologically. Well, okay, there are SOME differences, the parts of our brain responsible for impulse control and empathy are not fully developed until about 25, and brain plasticity is higher in kids, but the overwhelming influence is social. It takes years to just learn stuff and learn how people interact and to fit in. Maybe Jack should have acted a little bit older than his peers, a year or two, but that's about it.
It's a real condition called Werner syndrome
Mr. Cooper didn't think you were a fan of Nostalgia Critic!
Trolli Meerkat been a fan since this year.
+Sly Cooper Nice so uhh when's Sly 5 Coming out?
If Jack was made in this decade it would be the most outdated thing ever
True!
Just like most old movies
You could make a movie about a 50 year old man becoming a 6 year old girl.
Zeetee Pippi...........................what?!
The Último Knight There's a news story about this 52 year old man ditching his wife and kids to live with his parents as a 6 year old girl.
I really love that Williams could always redeem a bad movie with his energetic and charismatic peformance and Jack is no different.
5:59 Whenever I look over photos, I like to view them with confetti. 🎵Whimsy.🎵
9:08 im very disappointed you didn't make a Great Cornholio joke
Brodie Herbst me too
it's because he had no t.p. for his bunghole.
I do not approve of that broccoli line, we are here to learn... *Done* XD
Same. XD
"Mr Potter-"
"YEEEEEEEES?!?!?!?!"
-Mr Potter ...
-YEEESSS !!
I feel like if Kubrick directed Happy Gilmore it would be pretty epic
I actually really liked this film, if not only for the final speech. it was cheesy of course but seemed less egregious than some of the other glurgy Robin Williams films
Benjamin button is a little better imo simillar story
17:16 OH MY GOD! The way that a grown man pops up pulling that face looking through a window into a classroom full of kids is creepy in every Way!
When you showed the front for Hugo I realized it!
all modern movies are taking the lighting effects of Christmas movies!
But instead of having a dark atmosphere and night time to illuminate the surroundings and set a soothing calm tone through candles and street light they instead put everything in the middle of summer and instead of candles and street lights, they have pointless bright lights shining on everything for no reason while adding explosions. And also bathing everyone in car polish until they are as blinding as the sun
smoke bubbles everyday
FUCKING BUBBLES!
+black godess HOW DO THEY DO IT
Kids, don't do bubbles
Stay in drugs kids, don't do vegetables and eat your school
Feels good when you smoke those bubbles
FUCKING BUBBLES
this is my favorite nostalgic critic line
You know, next time Francis Ford Coppola wants to savage Marvel movies he should be reminded that he made this
jabuchananable excalty.
Marvel movies still suck
Oh god that Nightmare Before Christmas bit absolutely killed me.
Robin William's speech in "World's Greatest Dad" was different from the others and pretty damn good XD
That movie is fucking hilarious
10:45 "Think our moms look like that?"
What kids say shit like that?!?
The mom looked A LITTLE too happy to hear that Jack wanted "dirty magazines". It make me think that there's more to the story between them than what the movie is telling me, lol
I think she was happy that her son was finally interested in NORMAL 10 year old things with NORMAL kids his age.
@@DocStewie77 how your mom would react if she heard that?
@@DocStewie77 she was happy that he was happy and had a good at school finally
they're NOT dirty magazines they're ADULT magazines meaning in the UNITED STATES you have to be 18 to LEGALLY buy pornography
13:55 the dude in the blue shirt is Chuck from better call saul 😂
Obviously this must take place before his *condition* manifested.
ok seriously, am i the only one who thinks Fran Dresher is hot?
Physically I think she's 'alright'...Though she seems like one of those people you want to anger fuck in an attempt to silence them, and as your anger fucking them they continue talking in that irritating voice which angers you more, so you anger fuck even harder.
Then, before you know it, you've anger fucked her so vigorously that you've both had the best sex ever, then you're trapped as you keep going back for more to which eventually, whenever you hear a veloceraptor screech, you get an erection because it reminds you of the ballshatteringly amazing anger sex you had with Fran Dresher.
Ultimately, this leads to you forming an obsession with rule 34 veloceraptor images. You know it's wrong, but it's the only way you can get stiff these days. Long nights spent tugging it whilst thinking of that distinct mating call only heard from the prehistoric veloceraptor and Fran Dresher. Every waking moment is spent trying to erase any trail back to your new found love for scaley themed porn until it eventually gets too much, you can't hide it, and you find yourself at a furry convention.
So yea, overall I think she looks okay, but I'll give it a miss.
Dude, you're like, 14. I doubt you've fucked anyone, not even angrily.
he fucked up that comment alright
***** If that's what you want to believe, then you believe it, champ!
Hopefully, attacking somebody on the internet who has done nothing to you has increased your self esteem enough that you can finally leave the safe space of your parents house. Go you! Yay!
Tao I wasn't insulting you; I was just pointing out how ridiculous your comment was. Someone who actually has sex wouldn't talk like that. If that was some attempt to show off, I wish you the best of luck in your future endeavors and hope that the way you express yourself online is in no way indicative to how you act in your day-to-day life. High school must be tough right now, I'm sure. But just be aware that what you think is hilarious is actually quite sick. Even as a complete stranger to you, there's some concern.
Francis Ford Coppola also directed that Michael Jackson 3D theme park ride for Disney Parks... It was called "Captain EO" ....
Wait, Kubrick's version of Happy Gilmore! Go on...
I used to like this movie as a kid, I watched it again last night its really not that bad of a film and it is actually somewhat emotional.
3:25 "We can still try for an Emmy!"
Um........ the Emmys are solely TV-based. You mean the Golden Globes? They're both, so... :\ But I see what he meant!
10:00 You can tell commercial breaks are worked in pretty good, when you feel sorry they're not there.
I'd give anything to be taught by Jennifer Lopez.
Same! And I'm a girl!
20:40 why does that banner say 7 years later at a graduation ceremony?
I actually really liked this movie when I was younger, it was wholesome in a weird unexpected way to me
12:49 Please. I remember an episode of CatDog where they were holding proms for 2nd graders.
I don't remember that episode.
F*CKING BUBBLES
I laugh at that every 🤣🤣🤣🤣!
When I was ten I did still sleep with my parents when I had a bad dream but I sure as hell kept quiet about it. I didn't want anyone else to know I still slept in my parents' bed when I had a nightmare lol
Everyone’s progresses in different stages
4:34, I have Tourettes syndrome...
...why must there be that one joke that still makes me laugh even though I'm offended!? Damn you Nostalgia Critic!
Bryan Egelhoff's Animation Tech Nation *Tourette’s
I laughed more than I should have at that "Christopher Walken eating a cat" line.
Say what you want about the movie… everytime Robin Williams makes a sad face it hits me so hard
8:35 Finally the crossover everyone’s been waiting for! Ms.Doubtfire meets The Nanny!
20:27 ~
"I'm quirky, and that's good
I will never be good, and that's not quirky.
There's no one I'd rather be, than me."
That didn't sound right
i dont think inviting bill cosby with 10 year old boys into a treehouse with dirty magazines is the best idea, lol.
Her costume was the Wicked Witch of the East. You can tell by the stockings and ruby slippers. That was a creative costume choice, and you didn't even give the movie credit, instead making a stupid Helena Bonham Carter joke.
You also skipped over the really weird and out of place post-birth intro scenes with various science-ficiton like equipment inexplicably probling the baby in various ways.
*Pauses at **9:40*
Me: Oh yeah. Because looking like Cornholio is NOT weird.
At home...its ok
20:20 the funny thing is before NC’s voiceover, the speeches did all sound exactly the same LMAO.
