Eric Stevenson This is one of the most legendary bad movies ever made. It's become iconic with how terrible it is. The good news is that at least it isn't worse than what most people say. The downside is that that's still very low. There was ONE good joke in this movie about how they make the police come to Babyco and that's IT. This was made by the director of "A Christmas Story" and it just so happens this one takes place around Christmas too. This movie tells the story about these evil scientists who discover that babies have their own language. After awhile, they "cross over" and lose all of their genius. The most insane thing is that there is one scene where a baby is actually able to speak intelligible English as babies apparently know every language out there or somewhere. A main conflict is that they can't talk to their parents, even though they SHOWED that they could speak the same language as adults! Babies are apparently also able to hypnotize adults in their sleep. You have to admit that is completely stupid.In about six minutes, they literally say "Diaper gravy" four times and there is absolutely no variant said at all. This is easily the worst movie for Channel Awesome Month and it's a shame it came out shortly after "The Big Lebowski". That's a better movie to show to your kids and that has over 200 f-bombs in it! There's like six minutes of nothing but babies just jumping around as they are apparently training. There's a baby that wanders onto the road with cars and nobody notices, yet when the baby wears a disguise on the street, somehow everyone notices him. It's hard to even believe this movie even exists, as I couldn't see how anyone would ever find this entertaining. 1/2*
Danii Disaster Seriously, it looks like people either really love or really hate this movie. It has an extremely low rating on IMDb (currently 2.5), which, in my opinion, it doesn't deserve.Alright, so it's a dumb movie. But, come on, it's a comedy... for kids! It's not supposed to be serious or realistic. It's supposed to provide entertainment. And it does... to some extent at least. It does have a few funny moment, you have got to admit.Kathleen Turner is miscast, though. She makes a terrible antagonist. Her performance was weak to say the least. Then again, the same can be said about most of the cast.I did find the sex joke between two toddlers amusing, but yeah, it WAS kind of inappropriate, as many reviewers have pointed out already. Not a big deal to me personally, as long as it's funny, and it was.So no, it's not "the worst movie ever made". I thought it was watchable, and, in fact, somewhat entertaining.Then there's those, who have left raving 10 star reviews, saying that this is this movie is "genious"... you guys must be out of your minds.It is nowhere near "good", let alone "genious", but, like I said, it's a dumb comedy for kids, that some adults might find mildly amusing at times. Nothing more, nothing less.
TheBlueHairedLawyer Why on earth did I even watch this thing? Baby Geniuses makes the Justin Bieber movies look good, and it was honestly the most pathetic thing I've ever seen. As if the bad acting and awful soundtrack isn't enough, the plot revolves around scientists who are keeping children captive. What the hell? What is the purpose of this dopey movie? Well, I'll tell you: the purpose is to draw in the "I love cute babies" crowd. You know, pageant moms, new couples, people who will look back and think, "I'm a smart person but I watched this trailer-trash?" It makes me very worried for society to see good ratings on it. I only hope it is left in this website's bottom 100, it deserves to be there.
Ken Macaulay This very movie is probably one of the worst movies I've ever seen in my whole life! In fact, this movie made me dumber and dumber with each minute I had watched! And now, I have an hour and a half of my life that I can never get back! And why, you may ask? Because of this foul smelling, vomit inducing, putrid chunk of diaper gravy!! The only good thing about this movie was when the end credits popped up! Sure, there was good actors like Kathleen Turner, Christopher Lloyd, and even Dom faffing Deluise; but I wouldn't have guessed that the director of this movie, Bob Clark, had directed The Christmas Story. What would drive oneself to make such a horrible movie? Bob Clark should've realised that the general plot was too dumb to make it as a whole movie and scrap the entire project! That way, he wouldn't have made Baby Geniuses 2 (which was the last movie he ever made), and Baby Geniuses 3 (which I think was made by Jon Voight). I would rate this a zero out of ten, but this rating system only goes as low as one. All I can say is stay away from this movie at all costs!!
