ReaderKenka Let's be realistic.
ShangLuda Admirable film.
Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
Brooklynn There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.
Bianca P Absolutely one of the WORST movies I've ever watched. Pointless is the word. Utterly pointless. The movie follows one night at the Tucker home where we find Alicia Silverstone's character having a rather uneventful night babysitting two kids: Jimmy and Bitsy. The movie is about... well.... three horny and drunk men having fantasies about having sex with the babysitter. But that's all it is.... FANTASIES! DAYDREAMING! IMAGINING! If only this movie spent more time on actual events rather than imagining alone, maybe it would have had a shot at 2/10 rating. But this junk deserves -0. This movie is listed under "psychological thriller" on Netflix. The only thing 'The Babysitter' did was psychologically bore me and thrillingly annoy me. I want my 90 minutes back.
callanvass This is a truly bizarre but awesome thriller, that's quite fascinating to watch, with a unique story and fantastic performances!. All the characters are great, and it has some bizarre imaginary scenes as well, plus Alicia Silverstone is simply amazing in this!. The finale is very suspenseful and shocking, and all the characters fantasies were really quite twisted and sickening but still fascinating all the same, plus for a direct to video film this is top notch!. Nicky Katt is excellent as the asshole trouble maker as he sickened me with his actions, and some scenes really disturbed me (like the kid walking in the bathroom door to see Alicia naked in the tub, and she let him do it), and this is pretty well made and written as well, plus this should be much higher then 4.0 in my opinion. Jeremy London is also great as the lead, and I am glad I taped this on the scream channel as well, plus it Doesen't have your usual forgiveness type ending. This film will not be for everyone, and I liked the atmosphere it had in it too, plus J.T Walsh was also awesome in this. This is a truly bizarre but awesome thriller, that's quite fascinating to watch, with a unique story and fantastic performances, and I say it's a must see!. The Direction is awesome!. Guy Ferland does an awesome! job here with excellent camera work, adding some good atmosphere, and keeping the film at an engrossing pace. The Acting is excellent. Alicia Silverstone is amazing as always and is amazing here,she is incredibly gorgeous, vulnerable, extremely sexy, seductive, and also very mysterious, her character was a really good one as this is one of the most interesting roles she has played! (Silverstone Rules!!!!!!!). Jeremy London is awesome as the guy who is attracted to Alicia he was very likable, even if he did go to far at times. Nicky Katt is awesome as the asshole, he really sickened me with his actions, as I was glad he got what was coming to him at the end. J.T. Walsh is really good here, he had a bizarre but great role, his fantasies were very disturbing. Lee Garlington is decent as the wife. George Segal is rather wasted as a parent. Rest of the cast are fine. Overall a must see!. **** out of 5
Meltdown53098533 A baby Sitter named jennifer, is so gorgeous that she has all the men around her fantasising her to all of their desires. this includes her ex boyfriend, the tuff guy swho hangs out with him, the father of the kid that she is baby sitting and one of the kids that she is baby sitting.boring, poorly made film that wreaks of that early 90's film feel. my definition of early 90's film feel? here it is: a film in which is virtually unknown to most people; actors that you will never see again after the movie you're watching; and character's personal problems that do not relate to the plot. Much of that is in this film. Nothing to see really.*/****
xxSURViVE This movie made absolutely no sense to me. Maybe because I'm only fourteen, but I watched it with my mom and I have to say I think you'd have to be a genius to follow along. Everyone seems to have some sort of obsession with Alicia Silverstone...sure, she's pretty, but how can at least 3 guys have such similarly perverted visions about the same girl? I mean, even the kid had a vision of her and he's, what, TEN? She's pretty but we can't over-exagerate ((sorry, I'm not great with spelling and grammar, I'm still a kid)) on it. Whoop-di-do what's so great about her? Maybe it's because I'm a girl? Well whatever it was, I personally found this movie unbecoming and confusing.
