This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place
I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.
hyped garbage
This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
The Babysitter stars Alicia Silverstone as Jennifer, object of lust for her ineffectual bookworm boyfriend Jack (Jeremy London), colossal teenage jerk Mark (Nicky Katt), married man Harry Tucker (J.T. Walsh), and even Harry's randy pre-teen son Jimmy (Ryan Slater). As Jennifer innocently goes about her duties as a babysitter, the males fantasise about the young woman and desire eventually turns to obsession with fatal consequences.There was a time when teenage temptress Silverstone was shaping up to be a major player in Hollywood, her role in hit teen comedy Clueless seriously boosting her bankability as an actress. But then she appeared in the abysmal Batman and Robin (as Batgirl) and pointless drivel like The Babysitter, an erotic thriller that is neither thrilling nor erotic (largely thanks to a no nudity clause in Silverstone's contract). Her star rapidly faded.To be fair, Silverstone is perfectly adequate in her role, but the film's script goes nowhere slowly, its study of the male libido being neither enlightening (everybody knows how horny we men can be) nor all that interesting. Unappealing characters (Jennifer aside) also serve to make this film hard to endure, with wet-blanket Jack making unlikely boyfriend material for a hottie like Jennifer, Mark being a total tool, and Harry a slimy perv. Director Guy Ferland ends the film with a downer of a finale that sees one family losing a son, and another losing a father, making this not just boring but rather depressing too.
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.
Harry & Dolly, a married couple with their three children have a nanny Jennifer. One evening when the two go to a party, she comes at their home for what will be again a ordinary day of work. Her boyfriend, Jack meets Mark, a lover that Jennifer had a relationship before. They have fun that night until he tells to give his girlfriend's a call to ask her if he can go at her workplace. How things are not going well between them, she refused saying it needs more time to figure out their relationship and where it goes, anyway she can't let him come because she must take care of children. Mark not satisfied with this answer and convinces him to go there and let him still inside. But this time Jack it's not lucky, it is rejected and Mark offered him to spy her so they can see what she does until he comes to the idea wondered if she forget the door open when it was closed in the nose. The strange thing is that in reality the door is open so that the two can easily enter the house. Meanwhile, the owners are busy getting drunk at the party and Harry thinks at the nanny has his fantasies with her and looking for any excuse to go home. Find one saying that his head hurts because of so much alcohol and have to return home in order to take a pill. Meanwhile between good guy and bad guy altercation occurs which Mark wins for a moment. Drunk husband manages to reach home with the car, hit Mark, the police arrives, nanny got into the car and the question is what were you thinking? That is, what we thought when we decided to watch this movie?Of course the best are those few smiles in this movie during the dreams. But even so to see one at every 10 minutes is not quite right.Can not say anything about this film than continue to dream and change it.
The Babysitter is about this beautiful babysitter(Alicia Silverstone) that everybody adores and has every day fantasies about her. One night, while she is babysitting for the Tucker family, her boyfriend Jack(Jeremy London), her ex boyfriend Mark(Nicky Katt), and Mr.Tucker(J.T Walsh), all want to seduce the babysitter and make their fantasies come true. The plot was alright, i mean, the fantasies were pretty realistic in some way. We all have them at some point. But it gets kinda boring and predictable after a while and the babysitter turns into nothing special. I would give The Babysitter 6/10
