One of five body-swap movies all released around the same time. The others were 18 Again!, Vice Versa, Like Father Like Son and Dream a Little Dream.
Movie Goof (plot holes): The morning after Josh gets "big", he tries to convince his mom that he is really her son. He tells her that his birthday is November 3. Later, we see a milk carton with a "missing" advert on the side about Josh, which says his birthday is 1st January.
Movie Goof (continuity error): When Josh points out to Susan that there is mustard around her mouth, she wipes it off with her bare hand, but her gloves magically appear on her hands again on the next shot.
The film's budget was estimated at $17 million.
