The wait pays off. When the Big Guy starts showing, and begins to get that radiant glow, Junior hits its mellow, endearing comic stride.

The plot is a more fertile ground for comedy than the 'sperm milkshake' that made Schwarzenegger and Danny De Vito brothers in Reitman's Twins.

Full Review | May 12, 2001

A fleecy romantic caper with a dusting of feminism, the picture is basically a one-joke movie successfully nursed by director Ivan Reitman.

As a comedy, Junior has its share of laughs -- but no more than its share.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jan 1, 2000

For the right audience, Junior may deliver. But there's a whole lot of pregnancy to go through first.

It's goofy and ridiculous and preposterous, and yet it makes you feel good, and there is something oddly heartwarming about the sight of this macho guy melting with feelings of protectiveness and maternal concern.

Junior is passable entertainment, but it could hardly be called fully developed.
