Junior (1994)

- 1 1/2 Eberts

I had included Junior in my list of Roger's Worst Ratings, so I figured I had better watch it again. Junior started out much better than I remembered. There was very good chemistry between Arnold and Danny DeVito. But like all one note movies it really dragged as it when on. Not unwatchable as I originally described it but definitely not worth seeing (so little time, so many good movies).
Roger, who gave this movie 3 1/2 stars, ended his review with : "Note: In an unexpected way, Junior is a good family movie, for parents and adolescents to see together, and then to discuss in terms of male and female roles and responsibilities." Men having babies may have been a funny topic in 1994 but in 2008 it became a headline. Kids are confused enough. Children should avoid this one too.

Pass on this one (So little time, so many good movies).
