Review of The Babysitter (2017) by Lee B — 16 Jan 2018
When the film works, it's a lot of fun, there's a particular scene where Robbie Amell's character tries to help the main kid face his bully literally seconds after Robbie tried to kill him and it's kind of amazing.
It's the kind of joke that really works and if all the jokes had been like that we'd have something here. The film can be enjoyable, everything from the 30-minute mark onward isn't that bad and I will admit that I laughed at a fair few moments but the films inability to remain consistent and it's bizarre visual choices just make it a confusing watch in the end.
Not a bad watch because there's still something here that's fun, but it's confused and needed a lot more work.
