In 1994, Walt Disney Pictures produced a PG comedy called
Blank Check about an 11-year-old boy who gets into a bike
accident with an escaped convict and ends up with $1 million.
Though the movie is generally fun in a
classic 90s fashion, with tons of hijinks
and corny jokes, theres one small problem: .
The 11-year-old main characters
love interest is an adult woman.
The 1994 film has recently found
itself back in the spotlight now that
its available to stream on Disney Plus.
On TikTok, user therjpowell recorded a
now-viral video addressing the controversial
kissing scene in the movie, calling it cringey.
Though the entire concept of an 11-year-old falling in
love with a grown woman is troubling, therjpowell
calls out one problematic scene in particular in his video: .
the one where the 11-year-old and
the grown woman an FBI agent
named Shay actually kiss on the mouth.
Disney WHAT ARE YOU DOINNNN???
one person asked.
When the film came out in 94, the
Chicago Tribune called it one of the
sleazier movies ever marketed to kids"
