Movies
I finally watched this one, but was disappointed to find a rather tepid high school comedy. The performances are mediocre, the comedy lacked wit and the ending was terribly cheesy. I'm sure some people will appreciate this film as a relic of its time, but it has aged pretty badly and has few redeeming qualities.
One of those films I watched as a kid but never bothered to revisit. You watched it because it aired on TV and that was pretty much the only way to watch movies back then. It's not a film worth rewatching either, as it has aged terribly and whatever gimmick was funny back then has long lost its appeal. The idea that the baby/toddler is commenting on the situation used to be quite funny, it just isn't anymore. Since the entire film rests on that single gimmick, there's not much left to enjoy. Travolta and Alley are pretty bad, the jokes are tiresome and the plot is negligible. At least it stopped after 90 minutes.Read all
