----
!!This film provides examples of:
* ActorAllusion: Robin Williams [[{{Film/Hook}} has played an adult Peter Pan]] (aka the boy who never grew up) with a son named Jack.
* ArtisticLicenseBiology: There ''is'' a rare disease called [[http://www.ehow.com/about_5423019_rapid-aging-disease-children.html?ref=fuel&utm_source=yahoo&utm_medium=ssp&utm_campaign=yssp_art Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome]], in which a child from an early age exhibits rapid aging of the [[http://medtempus.com/wp-content/uploads/Fotosenero2007/Progeria.jpg body]], but not the mind. The longest they usually live is to their early 20s. The movie disease seems to match this pretty well, save for the looking like a normal adult part. Depending on your interpretation, this may be justified by RuleOfSymbolism and AnAesop about doing what you can with the time you have.
** A doctor ''does'' specifically mention progeria, and that it's not what Jack has, stating that Jack's condition is completely unprecedented.
* AwardBaitSong: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_HuEkCUZOR0#t=4m18s Star]] by Bryan Adams.
* BarBrawl: Jack is mistaken for an adult, and gets into a fight.
* CoolTeacher: Jack's tutor.
* GoodParents: Given the situation and circumstances, Jack's parents are practically saints.
* HomeschooledKids: Jack is one intermitently; his parents want to protect him.
* HotForTeacher: Why ''not'' develop a crush? She's Music/JenniferLopez!
** PrecociousCrush: Jack doesn't realize that he is too young for her, and after his heart is broken, he has a heart attack.
* KiddieKid: Jack acts a few years younger than his age, probably due to his sheltered lifestyle.
** [[ZigzaggedTrope Zigzagged]] with his classmates. On one hand, [[KiddieKid they still believe in things like cooties]]. On the other hand, [[TroublingUnchildlikeBehavior they enjoy looking at pornography.]]
* ManChild: Jack, [[CaptainObvious of course]].
* MoodWhiplash: Between being the fun kid-friendly comedy it was marketed as (see below; heck, see the poster on this page) to the bleak, depressing TearJerker it really was.
* NeverTrustATrailer: It was pretty much marketed as ''Film/{{Big}}'' [-[[RecycledINSPACE WITH]] [[Creator/RobinWilliams ROBIN WILLIAMS!]]-].
* NotAllowedToGrowUp: Completely subverted; Jack can't help but grow up.
* RapidAging: At a ratio of 4:1, most of the movie showing Jack at age 10 with the body of a 40-year-old.
* ShrinkingViolet: Jack, when he first goes to school.
* VisualPun: The pair of females sitting making derogatory comments about Jack's mother's weight at the start of the film are dressed as catgirls... they're being catty.
* ZergRush: Jack's schoolmates approach his house in waves, asking his mother to let him out to play.
