How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A deliberately silly premise, a grown man posing as an infant to pull off a heist, played completely straight, resulting in anarchic comedy that swings wildly between lowbrow physical gags and surprisingly warm family moments.
