This movie is great! [Posted on 2008-04-14]
I first saw this when I was a kid when HBO was playing constantly. I loved it then, and I'm surprised at how much I still enjoy it. Simply told, a poorly treated mother gets to escape for a summer with her boyfriend. She deems her daughter too immature and selfish to run the house, so she hires a baby sitter. Good call, except the old lady dies the first night. The story stays good, and the acting is decent for the kid and adult actors. Give it a try!

Don't Tell Mom The Babysitters Dead [Posted on 2008-04-25]
This is a movie that came out a few years ago but is still a favorite of mine. It is a family classic and is enjoyable for all ages.

Too bad they spoiled it [Posted on 2008-05-04]
I wish that they could've made this movie with less strong cuss words. It would otherwise be a good, funny, family movie. However, the stoner kids "f" words are too much. I wish I could show it because the underlying message is good & the kids pull it together in the end. I think that they were going for the teen sales and wanted to make it "cool".

3 & 1/2 stars, but they sound like chipmunks!! [Posted on 2008-10-08]
I grew up watching this movie. Rented it. Recorded it off of TV. A decent cliche '90's movie! Fun, original. Wasn't based off a book, old TV show, and wasn't a remake from an old movie. (As that is the trash Hollywood is now feeding us in the 2000's. NO ORIGINAL IDEAS ANYMORE!)

A good movie. So you get used to everything about it seeing it many, many times growing up. So, when I watched this on dvd last night, that I bought from Amazon and gave as a gift for someone, I swear ALL the voice/dialogue was higher pitched!! And considering how many times I've seen this movie on VHS tapes and on TV, -I- would know. It's almost ridiculous and it bugged me the whole movie. But, if a person were to see it for the first time on dvd, then they wouldn't know. And good and lucky for them. (I am not claiming this is Amazon's fault! Just the strange transfer of the movie to dvd.)

This movie has now been promoted to 'PG' rating. Don't buy into that, as it was released in theaters as being rated 'PG-13'. And at one time back in the '90's, the movie rating was said to be 'R'. I wouldn't say so. Definetely 'PG-13'.

Awesome Christina Applegate! [Posted on 2008-12-06]
Christina Applegate in what I consider her best movie roll. Totally in control by personal motivation, she turns a failing clothing company into a fashion industry great!! As A Teenager!!! Good humor, fun, and totally crazy, A must see!!!!
