I just watched this on TV and it was kinda good. I seriously want to know why people hate this so much. I found it funny and had a good plot. Even though it's unrealistic, it's kinda funny. I'm just stumped why people hate this. This is a funny, clever movie. Christopher Lloyd didn't do a good job though. You should really give this movie a chance! It's funny!

I saw this movie when it first came out, and I was probably around 10. I thought it was cute and I enjoyed it. I'm watching it right now on ABC Family. (I'm about to turn 16.) and I still think it's an OK movie. Definately not Oscar caliber or anything like that, but an nice thing to watch when you're sick and miserable. (which I am right now) But maybe I'm just a sucker for baby movies.
sharelol...you might want to know that my sis enjoyed this as much as you did, greenactoral. she was pregnant and going through that estrogen boom phase, so she went gaga over these kids in the movie. she was excited about it , so i checked it out when i caught it on cable tv and didn't give it much thought bcoz my mind wasn't on it and i guess its pretty ok to pass the time.
shareI hate to break this to you. but this is a childrens movie. it dosn't need to have a super great plot or cast or acting or directing or anything. its just something to keep you 8 year old quiet for minute or 2 while your cleaning the house. by the way this is way better childrens movie then Merlin's Shop of Mystical Wonders which will give your 8 year old nightmares But is great to watch with MST3k
So stop Complaining that the movie sucks. it wasn't not for people over the age of 10 or 11 ok.
P.s. I Would Rather watch Kim Cattrall in this then in "Sluts in the City"
isn't it called 'sex in the city'?
sharesomeone who writes the word "because" as "bcoz" would enjoy the movie "Baby Geniuses".Oh.And tell your sister that smoking pot while pregnant can harm the child.
shareyou
are
an
IDIOT
no you're and idiot linoleum bandito, your too stupid to realize that this is a kid's movie, and its purpose is entertainment. So don't talk until you've realized that....IDIOT!!
shareeveryone keeps saying it's a kids movie.Let's not demean our children's intelligence by making them sit through this cinema garbage that is "Baby Geniuses".
Absolutely. People are saying that it's entertaining. No, it really isn't. Kids don't have to like every movie that's labeled a Kid Flick.
"As you wish."
You're an idiot. you spelt "an", a two letter word, wrong. and then you spelt "you're" wrong, when you already know how it's spelt.
shareI saw the movie when i was really little and liked it. and since the purpose of the movie was to entertain YOUNG children it obviously succeded. It was cute and though it lacked any interesting plot at the time the movie came out thats what kids watched. so yeah i remember liking the movie though its been years since I've seen it
shareUmmmmm......
It's definately no Oscar Winning movie, but I thought it was kinda cute. They didn't take it off anything, so at least it was original. I mean, it definately has some aspects that you could rip apart with your bare hands. The mouth morphing was quite poor and the acting of Christopher Lloyd wasn't too brilliant. Yet, I still think it's a cute little movie to watch when there's nothing on TV...In general, I think I'd give it a 2/5. I don't think it's as horrible as you say it is.
Maybe with commercial breaks you didn't fully suffer the fullmindnumbing assault of Baby Geniuses. The height of the humor was men being hit in the crotch. There was a character named Nose Pick or something who served seemingsly no purpose except as a joke topic for a single scene. This movie is seriously garbage. It makes Deuce Bigelow seem sophisticated by comparison.
shareThe boy's name was Dickie but he called himself Ice Pick...Margo just never got it right cuz it was stupid anyway.
It's a good movie, it's funny, it's cute, it's aimed AT KIDS, NOT ADULTS, if you're older and you like the movie, that's fine, ain't anything wrong with it, but this is a movie aimed more at a CHILD audience...they don't have the highest expectations adults do only to be disappointed when the film doesn't live up to what they wanted to see.
ah yes dickie now seen on the tbs show My Boys...will forever be immortalized on film for the scene where the babies have him hypnotized and they don't even realize they have him hypnotized...(they were trying to hypnotize Dom Deluise)
then they have him pick his nose...which he does and in a close-up shot no less!!!! conisdering how many times the various babies used the phrase diaper gravy throughout the movie (a handful) i'm surprised the babies didn't take it father and make ol' dickie open up a dirty diaper and eat some "gravy"....hey it worked for stiffler in american pie 3.
I think it's an insult to children to think something this bad is acceptable just because it's aimed at under-10s. When I compare it to Home Alone, or The Lion King, The Secret Garden, or other classics form my childhood, I shudder at the thought that kids of later generations might actually be raised on baby geniuses and 'son of the mask'. Encouraging them to find enjoyment in trash like this will 1) turn them into brainless couch potatoes, 2) mean that they have NO taste when they grow up, and 3) will miss out on the truly magical experience of other well written children's classics.
I could tell the difference between a good film and a bad one at that age, and if my parents had tried to fob me off with this crap, I'd have divorced them.
I lol'd. I absolutely LOVED Baby Geniuses when I was nine - when it came out! But I also LOVED The Lion King and Home Alone. Hated Secret Garden though. I'm certainly not a brainless couch potato, my taste in movies is fine thank you, and I have not missed out on any truly magical experiences.
Therefore your theory that children will grow up to be basically - if they liked this as a child - trash is incorrect. :] But I suppose being "trash" would be better than being a *beep* that would have "divorced" their parents as a eight year old because they gave them a movie to watch. How sad.

I liked Dickie a lot. I thought that character was one of the best things about the film.

I had the unfortunate opportunity to watch this turd with my daughter, it angered me to the point that I was in a bad mood the rest of the day. It is so insulting to present this idiocy as entertainment, I do believe that this injuried both me and my daughter.
