Simply inept. [Full review in Spanish]

| Dec 8, 2022

It's not bad, but hardly what you put down money in a cinema to see.

Gilded by personable performances, particularly from [Christina Applegate and Josh Charles], this wish-fulfilling fantasy manages to be wholeheartedly ridiculous in a manner that leaves criticism disarmed.

...an appealingly larger-than-life premise that is, for the most part, employed to affable effect by Herek...

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jan 27, 2021

It's a cross between nightmare and fantasy, and though obvious in its intentions, the film is still completely unbelievable.

| Original Score: 4/10 | Sep 11, 2020

Teen steps up to care for siblings; language, drugs.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jul 16, 2020

If we look at the details, this movie is actually pretty good.

A fun experience for anyone who remembers fawning over Christina Applegate.

A picture with obvious flaws, but one that attempts to subvert the norm with a few curveball jokes here and there. It's not awful. It's not good either.

| Original Score: C+ | Jun 9, 2011

Surprisingly entertaining and fun.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jul 25, 2007

Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead starts with an enjoyable, if crude, black comedy situation promised by the title, but then it turns into an incredibly dumb teenage girl's fantasy of making it in the business world.

This is a sassy little comedy of wit and intelligence from the director of Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure.

Predictable, but not wholly unlikable.
