The general outline of the plot, of a 12 year old boy who wished he was older and had that wish granted.

That's about all I could remember of this film: it must have been at least a decade since I last saw it.

So, yes, 12 year old Josh makes a wish on a (scary looking) funfair machine, and wakes up the next morning to find himself aged. With nobody except his best friend believing him, he heads to New York where he gets a low paid data input job while he tries to track down said funfair machine, until a chance encounter leads to him getting a new job testing and okaying with toys. All the while his mum believes he is missing.

Josh then starts to get distracted by his new life and by his colleague Susan, finally deciding he misses his old life and making another (granted) wish once he tracks down the funfair machine.

I feel sorry for Susan at the end.
