I love this movie. It has adventure, comedy and a heartwarming story of
friendship and fatherhood. But don't get it twisted. This is not sappy, sugar coated kiddie movie. These kids have car chases with the police and the mob. You may remember Darius McClary from "Family Matters". It was the sitcom that made Steve Urkel a household name. Darius played Eddie Winslow. Anywho. Whenever you need a too laugh you self silly and see
some of the best car chases since "Smokey and The Bandit" , this is the flick for you. I've showed this movie to everyone I know from 18-85 years old and they all enjoyed it. This is truly a buried treasure.

Dear Santa...it's 12/19/10 and I am still waiting for my dvd copy of this movie. Maybe if I am a good I will get my copy for christmas next year. Ok. I know you tried. Whenever I get it I am sure it will be worth the wait. Maybe even some dvd extras. I now have an AARP card and I still love this movie. I have cookies to bake so I have to go now. Be blessed and not stressed.

A worthy purchase if you can get your hands on it. A shame it is not available on DVD yet. A great movie from the 80's, with good performances from two young actors. Paul Winfield is great too. The story is simple and easy to follow, one of those movies you will watch over and over.

It was an excellent film about a sheltered, inexperience white boy coming of age with the help of a street savvy young hoodlum. Recommended for all who want an enjoyable, funny, and relaxing film.

Was so awesome to find this movie, my children rented when they were teenagers and we had forgotten about it. The quality was very good due to have been a rental. Glad that my grandchildren will be able to view this tape.

I have this movie on VHS it's one of my all time favorites and one of the best 80's movie ever made even tho the stars are kids it can easily be adults in these roles but since it is kids it makes the movie even better.

My VHS tape is wearing out so I'm waiting patiently still for this to be released on DVD it had a laser disc release so i dont get why they don't put that on DVD.

They can also stop wasting time re releasing multiple versions of a movie already released on dvd when great movies still have not been released at all.

My top 5 Movies that need to be released on DVD.

1-Big Shots
2-Hot to Trot/Bobcat Goldthwait & John Candy
3-Second Sight/Bronson Pinchot & John Larroquette
4-Pure Luck/Martin Short & Danny Glover
5-Madhouse/John Larroquette & Kirstie Alley

And i guess you could add Meatballs 3 starring Patrick Dempsey.

But by far Big Shots is the one movie that deserve a DVD above any especially so it doesn't disappear forever.

I saw the movie for the very first when I was [...] (around 1991) and since that time I'd loved it.
it's really fun. maybe today not to many people knows about this movie, but I really recomend it!

I have BIG SHOTS ON Laserdisc,'ne gonna get it on dvd too when it releses.'tis a great movie.
