Review of Look Who's Talking Too (1990) by David P — 20 Mar 2011
The first Look Who's Talking was an enjoyable surprise - not just because of Willis' gimme-a-break line readings but because of its witty, low-down view of the messiness of child-rearing. The sequel isn't as funny. Willis' comments seem less absurd coming from a 3-year-old, and Barr's role isn't bratty enough. Still, the movie has its moments, especially when Mikey confronts the considerable anxieties of toilet training. What's more, Travolta and Alley continue to bring out the best in each other. Their marital spats are just believable enough to give the movie some heart. My guess is that Look Who's Talking Too is not going to generate quite the mega-hit business their producers are counting on. Then again, in an era when movies about babies regularly outgross movies about adults, anything is possible.
VERDICT: "Rental" - (Negative to Mixed reaction). These films are only worth renting because of certain good things that are worth seeing, but are not worth paying at a theatre to see due to bad things that overcome anything good.
