Supelice Dreadfully Boring

GarnettTeenage The film was still a fun one that will make you laugh and have you leaving the theater feeling like you just stole something valuable and got away with it.

Sanjeev Waters A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

Jenni Devyn Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.

joshuabush-28688 You gotta love the 80's! This movie never gets old and it is just as funny as the first time. I recommend it ! 9/10

WoehrStephen This could have been such a wonderful movie. There is a simple set-up and several surprising plot twists -- some little, some big -- but I could not enjoy it as I would have liked to have done, and I certainly cannot recommend it to parents of even teenaged children.What gets in the way of this being a truly sweet movie is the language. In 102 minutes, there are no less than 40 swear words -- approximately every 153 seconds, someone cusses. I know that is a relatively low ratio among today's sit-coms, but it is unacceptable for a "children's movie." What makes it even worse, in my mind, is that just about every character -- even the 8-year-old girl -- swears sometime during this movie . . . except . . . the major villain.If there is a cleaned-up version of this movie somewhere, I would love it!

utgard14 When she receives a frantic phone call from her friend who is stuck in downtown Chicago at night, suburban babysitter Chris (Elisabeth Shue) must head to the big city to help. But she can't leave the kids she's babysitting so she brings them along. The night becomes one big crazy experience for Chris and the kids. Classic '80s greatness here. You take a situation that, in reality, might wind up with a bunch of young people on the evening news as rape and/or murder victims and you turn it into an adventurous lark. Love the '80s!This is a highly entertaining movie. The characters are fun and well-written. The dialogue is great. It has the feel of a John Hughes movie. Elisabeth Shue is so good in this. It's impossible not to have a crush on her after watching this film. The kids are all good, with Maia Brewton stealing practically every scene she's in. Her love of Thor was a big kick to me as a kid since I was also a big fan of Thor and all the other kids I knew had no clue who he was. The scene where she meets "Thor" for real is one of the many highlights of this film for me. Just a great movie from a great decade. You should definitely check it out.

John Wayne Landry I was 15 years old when I first watched this and while I knew even then that Adventures In Babysitting was aimed at a younger demographic like I was then,some of the content in this movie was appreciated even more by adults who had watched it.It's really a matter of individual interpretation what constitutes a great movie,but this one is actually a lot better than most give it credit for.Even though Elisabeth Shue was previously in The Karate Kid,I didn't really pay attention to her until this.She sure was a hottie then!Keith Coogan had pretty much fallen off the face of the Earth after this,Anthony Rapp has had a few projects on the go since,& I've seen Maia Brewton on an episode of The Wonder Years and appearances on a few other programs too.If you don't care to go out of your way to watch it,at least give it a chance if you're channel surfing on a lazy Sunday afternoon.
