Review of 3 Men and a Baby (1987) by Natalie A — 09 Feb 2014
It's actually surprising that they could make a comedy film starring Tom Selleck, Ted Danson and Steve Guttenberg (who were huge stars in the 80's), and that it would actually be good. To put it bluntly, this is the most 80's film I've ever seen so far, mainly due to its cast and the general way it presents itself.
With all seriousness, the three main characters actually make for interesting and effective leads, while the other characters perform equally well. The humour comes from places you would least expect it, and I think they were actually aiming for a subtle sense of humour, and it works.
The film's overall style is a product of the time it was made in. It was the highest grossing film of 1987, and it opens with an artsy mural made by one of the main characters. Overall, it's actually a really good film, and one that you may have to see in order to take it for what it is.
