Customer Reviews of The Babysitter
FUNNY only reason i gave this movie 4 stars is because its so funny. people are gona think im crazy for givin this movie 4 stars but its so cheesy that its hilarious.i recomend this dvd if you want a good laugh or you like alicia silverstone and jeremy london.i cant believe such great actors were in such a cheesy movie. i guess they didnt expect it to turn out that way but it did. the ending dosent make any sense at all. its just fun to watch all those great actors in those situations. the reviews on here say not to waste your time with this movie but i watch this movie alot and think its really funny. i like it , its so bad its good.i would recomend this movie if your a alicia silverstone fan.
Helen of Troy...NOT!!!
Watching this movie is similar to reading a term paper with no thesis statement. After the ending, you begin to understand what the writers were (maybe) trying to accomplish, but choppy editing throughout the movie only makes the viewer think that the several fantasy sequences revolving around Silverstone's character are only planted in the film to obscure the writers lack of imagination with regard to character development.
In retrospect, the Babysitter (Silverstone) is supposed to be like Helen of Troy. Men will risk thier families, jobs and freedom to sleep with her. Among the people who want Alicia are her ex (?) boyfriend and a manipulative wanna-be-a-gangster suburban rich boy, who drunkenly conspire a plan to spy on her. The manipulative rich kid dupes the ex into breaking and entering the house where Silverstone is babysitting then tries to rape her. Nuff said about the plot.
Two things make the plot unbelievable. First of all, Silverstone, taken as THE sole motive for a host of fantasies (some related and some utterly unrelated to the ending) and a rape attempt is not buyable. In reality, Silvertone is no Helen of Troy, but yet another link of good-looking hollywood sausage. More importantly, in the movie, her character is unexciting, bland and (ahem) clueless.
Secondly, the antagonist rich hood's rape attempt is paradoxical. He has sense enough to manipulate the Babysitter's boyfriend like an expert (a la Cruel Intentions), yet the during the last scene of the movie he smashes lamps on peoples heads and tries to rape Alicia in front of 2 small children. Any criminologist could tell you that most psychotics are usually not silver-tounged manipulators and vice versa.
On a final note, the writers could have used some of the time they spent on the fantasy sequences to develop the characters' backgrounds and motives. At least then the film might not have been such a pile of garbage.
seduced by the sitter
good movie with some ok twists and turns. Nicky Katt, the one who gets hit with the car at the end is great. though Jeremy London seems misplaced but Alicia Silverstone is great in the imagination. though it lags but it's older cast.
